Try this wrapper instead of (it had been proven to work, see http://www.fis.ru/system/vis/ :-): ==================== Cut ======================== #!/bin/bash PATH_INFO=/path/index.htm #$SCRIPT_NAME PATH_TRANSLATED=/...MyDocumentRoot(insert your own here).../path/index.htm #$SCRIPT_FILENAME export PATH_INFO export PATH_TRANSLATED #unset SERVER_SOFTWARE #unset SERVER_NAME #unset GATEWAY_INTERFACE #unset REQUEST_METHOD /usr/local/bin/php4b ===================== Cut ======================== > Here is the output when I run test.cgi (php version) from command line: > > $ ./test.cgi > X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.0 > Content-type: text/html > > Hello World Right, but do you know that PHP behaves differently for CGI and CLI interfaces? if you uncomment commented-out string in my script, you "fake" your PHP - then it will consider itself in CLI mode and it will be work as in your example w/o problems. AFAIK Apache 1.3.6 have set PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED variables but it doesn't fill them and Apache 1.3.9/1.3.12 does not ever set them. Instead they all make use SCRIPT_NAME and SCRIPT_FILENAME variables. Maybe it's a time to change this? -- WBR, Yury Bokhoncovich, SysAdmin at FIS.
