Okay, there's your problem. You may want to try it this way:

use CGI::Cookie;
...
my %cookies = CGI::Cookie->parse($r->header_in('Cookie')):
my $user = $cookies{'login'};
my $password = $cookies{'pass'};

For more info on how to work with cookies in mod_perl, check the eagle
book. Also note that if you're going to do a redirect and set cookies at
the same time, you have to put the cookies into $r->err_header, since
$r->header doesn't get sent for "error" conditions like redirects.

HTH,

I've seen some problems with the PerlSetVar directive at my site, but
otherwise I do something quite similar. I wound up defining the
variables I need in apachectl (SYBASE=/opt/sybase; export SYBASE; etc.).

Note that URL encoding treats the symbol '+' as the URL encoded version
of the symbol ' ' (space, ASCII 32). The sequence of characters you need
to include in a query string in order to have your script interpret it
as the symbol '+' is '%43'.

Your problem report isn't exactly clear on what you mean by "eats", but
this may be your trouble.
