I agree it should not be at all complicated, but that doesn't change the fact that I've spent all day looking into this and I still can't figure out any eloquent (or even feasible) solution to the problem... 1) What change can I possibly make to the script if environment variables are no longer a way to pass in information? Do I have to create a file for the inputs? What a horrible "solution" to what should be a simple problem. Other than that I cannot think of any 'small' changes I can make to the script. 2) Version 2.1 has been in beta for years and there isn't even a port for Gentoo out yet. However this is probably what I'm gonna end up doing. 3) I'll leave patching up to the developers since I really don't want to repatch everytime my system automatically updates. If the developers don't think this is "critical enough" to back-port, I'll just assume what I'm trying to do cannot be done on apache 2.0. Chances are I'll have to go to 2.1 anyway... one day... > But if you'd prefer to just complain, feel free. Just don't expect it > to get you anywere. I'm sorry if my tone bothered you. If I knew the answer I would have subscribed to the apache bugzilla so that I could post solution(s) to the problem on the bug itself and save other people some time. It appears that ENV variables cannot currently be passed to scripts using ScriptAliasMatch, so I see this as still a limitation. Perhaps that's the reason this whole thing remains an undocumented mystery? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
