BUG: suEXEC problem: QUERY_STRING not set (fwd)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Acked. This confirms a enivron** error for at least two platforms now.
Randy, how is your research going?

Subject: suEXEC problem: QUERY_STRING not set
Using Apache 1.2b6 on AIX 3.2.5.1, I have a user running a CGI
shell script that has whoami and set commands in it. When run
without suEXEC installed, the whoami is that of the HTTPD_USER
(as expected) and the set shows such values as SERVER_SOFTWARE
and SERVER_NAME.
After installing suEXEC per the instructions, starting httpd
indicates "Configuring Apache for use with suexec wrapper."
(as expected) and the whoami returns the user's name, not
www (again as expected).
However, NONE OF THE ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES ARE SET!!! This includes
SERVER_NAME, QUERY_STRING, etc. So while suEXEC spawns the CGI
script as the correct user, none of the supplied info is passed
in. Without that information, there is no point having a CGI script.
Does anyone know what is going on?
Thanks in advance,
