Howdy all--
This may be a moron question, but I can't seem to get it to work.
I've got two CGI's
http://www.clientone.com/coolapp.cgi
http://www.clienttwo.com/coolapp.cgi
that really live on my server here
/www/karic/clientone/coolapp.cgi
/www/karic/clienttwo/coolapp.cgi
I want each of them to read in subroutines and settings from a single place
/www/karic/mystuff/global.cgi
So, in each of those two cgi's I've got this line
require ("/www/karic/mystuff/global.cgi");
I can't find any documentation that says I can crawl around my file server like
this using require, but nothing that says I can't either.
Nonetheless, I'm getting a server error. Is this a problem with my perl, or
with my server?
Any thoughts?
-kari.
p.s. I couldn't get it to work with DO or USE either, though I know much less
about those.
