I saw something similar to this in the list archives -- something Gerald responded with to someone who was having a similar problem (or so it seems), back in 2002. He said use this:
[- $req = shift -] [- $path = $req -> component -> cwd -] If I use this I would have to: open (FILEHANDLE, $path.'sites.txt') or die 'Cannot open sites.txt: '.$!; instead of what I'm using below, right? I'm not really sure if what your $myactualpath will be universally applicable or not(?). Is it common knowledge that in Embperl 2 one cannot access files relative to the current file executed, or am I misunderstanding?

To get my actual path i am doing this: $myactualpath = substr($epreq -> param -> filename,0,length($epreq -> param -> filename)-9); I hope this helps CKG El Jue 27 May 2004 15:18, Hall, Philippe escribió: > Ok I'll say up front that this is my first time setting up EmbPerl 2 and > Apache 2, but I've used EmbPerl 1.3 for a few years now.
