I'm migrating a web application from mod_perl 1 to mod_perl 2 [new
environment: Apache/2.0.49 (Unix) mod_perl/1.99_14 Perl/v5.8.4].
The problem is that in some places the %ENV variable is used to
pass parameters to programmes called via "system". Now these
variables are not found in the called programme. E.g.
Right, environ is not tied in mp2 due to threads issues. Please take
a look at:

Thanks for the answer. In fact I saw this piece of documentation
already, but I'm not sure it suits for my case: as I understand, we
might push the parameters in the startup file... but that's useless
if we really want to pass a parameter which is changing from one
execution to the other (not in the case of $ORACLE_PATH). It seems
that I'll have to change quite a little amount of code :-(
You understand why we can't change the C environ, right? We had to
write code to decouple it so %ENV will work correctly under threads.
Without this decoupling a hell breaks loose as one thread will affect
%ENV of all other threads (well perl interpreters in our case)
Try Env::C if you are using prefork.
Yes, I understand pretty well. Fortunately i'm not using threads, so
this module would perfectly suits... but i'm woking under Solaris and
the module does not build under it: i'll have to make a patch, change
the web programme or do not upgrade to mod_perl 2. I'm not sure i'll be
able to do the first. Thanks for the help.
