Hi all,
I wrote a little form mail script and start by setting the environment variables like
this:
BEGIN {
$ENV{PATH} = "/usr/sbin";
delete @ENV{ qw( IFS CDPATH ENV BASH_ENV) };
}
Now the actual directory (.) is obviously not searched anymore, since
my $page_head = eval do('page_head.pl');
returns an empty $page_head while
my $page_head = eval do('./page_head.pl');
fills it with the appropriate content.
Commenting the BEGIN block above and printing $ENV{PATH} gives me:
/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/libexec:/System/Library/CoreServices
I cannot see the current working directory in that list (but I admit that I am not
used to environment variables at all).
Can someone tell me how to restrict $ENV{PATH} but keep the script's ability to see
something in its own directory?
Thanks,
Jan
