RE: perl's system() w/ apache under win2k

2003-01-08 Thread Alessandro Forghieri
Greetings. -Original Message- [...] Apparently permissions on winNT is something unexpected and new for those who are used to older win32 systems. Moreover, error_log usually tells what the exact problem is when the code is written properly to report errors (e.g., checking the

Thanks for pointing me in that direction. While Perl did not work as you suggested (produced error 'no Perl handler specified'), it did cause me to grep for this error message, and it is in file src/modules/perl/modperl_cmd.c. I was able to get some information from that code: mod_perl

Sticky pnotes conclusion

2003-01-08 Thread John Heitmann
Hello, Over the weekend I posted here with questions about a problem where variables stored in pnotes did not get garbage collected. Thanks to some very helpful hints I was able to determine that mod_perl was leaking pnotes in a request with an internal redirect. A patch to fix that was

Passing CGI environment to subprograms

2003-01-08 Thread Erich Oliphant
Hi, I have a mod_perl script that exec's (via backticks) another program. This program actually needs the CGI enviroment variables to perform correctly (it's a proprietary program, it was actually called by shell CGI initially, this approach cuts our exec's in half until we get an alternative

I've now located and tried the subprocess_env() in conjunction w/ spawn_proc_prog(). I just do a foreach on the ENV hash and stuff the values into subprocess_env(). That works (I have a test perl subprogram that just dumps the ENV), but now I am not able to get the output of the program. I
