This would work if this was done in a <Perl> section of the httpd.conf file (this is what I do). I am not sure why the BEGIN block is not executed, but my guess is that the environment gets automatically restored at the end of every script run under Apache::Registry, including the tainted PATH. -- Dominique QUATRAVAUX Ingénieur senior 01 44 42 00 08 IDEALX
