I am a newcomer to this mailing list. I have had a few
months experience setting up an apache web server on
Redhat Linux EWS 5.
I decided to venture into Server Side Includes which
indeed is a neat feature for doing fairly complex
things easily.
The question I have is:
I have created a csh script which I invoke from my web page
like this:
<!--#exec cmd="/somepath/check_for_debug.csh" -->
The script looks like this:
#!/bin/csh -f
echo '<\!--#set var="MY_DEBUG" value=1 -->'
exit 0
Right after executing the csh script I have this html code
that tries to check the value of the MY_DEBUG variable and
execute printenv if the value is set to 1:
<!--#if expr="${MY_DEBUG} = 1" -->
<!--#printenv -->
<!--#endif -->
What I don't understand is that it doesn't work. The "if"
expression doesn't see that the MY_DEBUG is set.
If I put the "set var" inline in my webpage before the "if"
expression then it works:
<!--#set var="MY_DEBUG" value=1 -->
<!--#if expr="${MY_DEBUG} = 1" -->
<!--#printenv -->
<!--#endif -->
printenv is executed.
So it looks to me like you canot set server side include variables
from inside a shell script executed with the "exec" comment.
Perhaps I misunderstood something in the way server side includes work?
Help and advise will be appreciated.
Thanks
