Hola, We're using apache/1.3.33 and mod_perl/1.29.
the problem is, a personal ENV variable is set in my environment and read from a script like ..... my $ENVNAME = $ENV{MY_PERSONAL_ENV} || 'STHELSE'; When the server is started a fresh, I can display my ENV on my webpage but when I press refresh, it disappears ...... never to be seen again. The contents of the ENV var is used to find a file and require it. So ..... require "General/Config_$ENVNAME" ; What else do you need to know? Well, the script that contains this code is not loaded at server start up (not in startup.pl) for instance. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't (that old cliche). I could try work arounds but b4 I do, I'd like to understand what may be going on here. any pointers would be great. CIA -Ants ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
