Hi, I'm new here so tell me if I'm doing something wrong :) I posted a report to http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10820 but they said it seems to be a mod_perl bug.
here goes: ------------- If you run the following perl code (on Apache 1.3.2x (win32) - mod_perl 1.27_01-dev - activstate perl build 631/633): - once with bla/test.pl/xxxxxxxxxx - and then bla/test.pl ...the first foreach will have _NO_ PATH_INFO entry ...the hardcoded $ENV{'PATH_INFO'} will have it!!! ...and also the second foreach will have it!!! The Path_info seems to be cached serverwide. Every time I use a $ENV{'PATH_INFO'} it has contents even though it shouldn't. The path_info isn't initialized correctly on win32 (linux apache/mod_perl doesn't show this behavior). #!/perl/bin/perl use strict; print "content-type: text/html\n\n"; print '<html><body>'; my $val; foreach my $var (sort(keys(%ENV))) { $val = $ENV{$var}; $val =~ s|\n|\\n|g; $val =~ s|"|\\"|g; print "${var}=\"${val}\"<br>"; } print '<br>',$ENV{'PATH_INFO'},'<br><br>'; foreach my $var (sort(keys(%ENV))) { $val = $ENV{$var}; $val =~ s|\n|\\n|g; $val =~ s|"|\\"|g; print "${var}=\"${val}\"<br>"; } print '</body></html>'; ------------ what do you think? cu Stefan -- homepage http://my.animeweb.org
