OT: CGI parameters in CSWS?

Huh? Maybe I'm thinking wrong. Hmm, by the way, try what someone else suggested (can't remember who), and check your logicals instead. I would expect them to live there...

Ok, that explain it :) Does anybody happen to know why CSWS doesn't pass QUERY_STRING_UNESCAPED, but it does QUERY_STRING? Is there some Apache option I need to set? CSWS = I64VMS CSWS V2.1-1 on VMS V8.3-1H1 / Itanium. Sampsa On 5 Oct 2009, at 20:18, Johnny Billquist wrote: Nothing wrong with *, just that you won't get other tables like that.

Sorry about the less-than-entirely-relevant question, feel free to ignore, but I am confused, yet again. I'm trying to write a quick script to search a file and output the results, in HTML, over HTTP, so I've decided to use a small DCL script with the CSWS web server on OpenVMS 8.3. I can't figure out where CSWS sticks the CGI parameters however, the book says they're meant to be defined as symbols, but this is what my script sees: SHOW SYMBOL/LOCAL * P1 = "" P2 = "" P3 = "" P4 = "" P5 = "" P6 = "" P7 = "" P8 = "" SHOW SYMBOL/GLOBAL * $FACILITY == "%X00000001" $IDENT == "%X00000000" $RESTART == "FALSE" $SEVERITY == "1" $STATUS == "%X00010001" APACHE$DCL_BIN == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$DCL_BIN.EXE" APACHE$DCL_CMD == "@APACHE$COMMON:[CGI-BIN.FIDONODES]FINDNODE.COM" APACHE$DCL_ENV == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$DCL_ENV.EXE" APACHE$DCL_RUN == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$DCL_RUN.EXE" APACHE$FLIP_CCL == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$SET_CCL.EXE" APACHE$SET_CCL == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$SET_CCL.EXE" HTTPD == "$ APACHE$COMMON:[000000]APACHE$HTTPD.EXE" PHP == "$ PHP_ROOT:[BIN]PHP.EXE" SAY == "WRITE SYS$OUTPUT" Where did QUERYSTRING etc go?

OT: CGI parameters in CSWS?

You are aware that there are more tables than just the LOCAL and SYSTEM tables, do you?

Most of my scripts use logicals so that it doesn't matter where the script is run from. -Steve -----------------------------------… [View More]------------------------------------- *From:* owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE <mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE> [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] *On Behalf Of *Sampsa Laine *Sent:* Monday, October 05, 2009 12:17 *To:* hecnet at Update.UU.SE <mailto:hecnet at Update.UU.SE> *Subject:* [HECnet] OT: CGI parameters in CSWS?
