That's not exactly true. From the mod_perl docs: However, Apache (or mod_perl) don't pass on environment variables from the shell by default; you'll have to specify these using either the standard PassEnv or mod_perl's PerlPassEnv directives. It's not that they can't, it's that by default they don't pass anything you don't tell it to. And it's not mod_perl, it's Apache. > PerlSetEnv NLS_LANG AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 PerlPassEnv NLS_LANG If you're setting NLS_LANG correctly in your environment, you can simply make that PerlPassEnv NLS_LANG Or if you want to make it available to anything else that might need it PassEnv NLS_LANG -- Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP
