$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'} problem

[alan123]

I try to set the enviornment variables for a web script, if I use "/usr/local/apache", the script works fine, however if I use "$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}", the script doesn't work, what cause the problem?

If you're programming in PHP, the array is $_ENV, not $ENV ______________________________________________________________________

This will report all of your ENV vars.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use CGI;
my $o = new CGI;
print $o->header, $o->start_html;
foreach (keys %ENV)
  {
  print qq(KEY: $_ - VAL: $ENV{$_}<br />\n);
  }
print $o->end_html;
