HOME: getEnv: does not exist
Hi all, when I try to use runghc to execute cgi scripts in apache (on redhat linux), they all fail with with the message HOME: getEnv: does not exist. I assume this means that GHC is trying to find the HOME dir of the user for some reason, and fails since apache runs as nobody. Could someone shed some light on this matter for me? #!/usr/bin/runghc main = do putStrLn Content-type: application/xhtml putStrLn Content-length: 5\n putStrLn Hello Thanks, /Niklas ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

I think runghc is acting like GHCi, and trying to read the file $HOME/.ghci on startup.

I think runghc is acting like GHCi, and trying to read the file $HOME/.ghci on startup. Thanks, that may well be the case. Too bad you can't tell it not to, see my other post about runghc and flags. :-( /Niklas ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

I toyed with this, and it seems like runghc is forking off a ghc process, which then tries to read .ghci (and possibly .inputrc) from the $HOME directory. Unfortunately, while runghc apparently parses -ignore-dot-ghci (i.e. it refuses illegal options), it later on seems to treat it's a source file to run. As far as I can tell. -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

The same seems to be the case with ghc itself, not only runghc. Giving the flags -ignore-dot-ghci and -no-user-package-conf does not solve the problem, I still get the same error. /Niklas ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

Alright, after digging the the ghc source I found this to be a bug that has been remedied in the current cvs HEAD. I guess it remains for me to install a cvs version then. /Niklas ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
