Re: [webmin-devel] PATH_TRANSLATED environment variable in miniserv.pl

Hi Colm,
That would work fine, as long as none of your PHP scripts depend on it. Certainly none of the Webmin CGIs need it ..

Do you see any issues with me patching my own miniserv.pl to just
never define PATH_TRANSLATED as a stopgap solution until a better
patch is found?  It seems to work fine and AFAICS it would not break
any of my existing webmin perl CGIs because none of those or the
associated webmin perl libraiers seem to use PATH_TRANSLATED.

Thanks,
Colm
