Question about classes on Apache

Pardon my newb question,

Is there an equivalent of regsvr32 in UNIX? I am having a problem with what
appears to be failure to instantiate classes on Apache. For example, I get:

Unknown MySQL server host 'DB_SERVER' (11001) in D:\...\dbclass.php on
line 12

It was supposed to be set in config with : define
("DB_SERVER","localhost");

This is a "working" app that I am trying to host, so I ASSume that the
problem is in the web server environment and not the code. It just isn't
evaluating DB_SERVER.

Does this ring any bells for anyone?

Thanks, Scott

Thanks, Davide.

Maybe this was a bad example. I meant to demonstrate an error that I don't
think is coming from the web app, but rather failure to build the class that
would pass the value. From what I know of COM, I would have expected this
to be causal in my example, but now it doesn't sound like it.

I am looking for more general info on server side objects, and the
equivanent of an ASP Server.CreateObject call. I have read the apache docs
regarding SSI, and CGI execution, but I am fairly cludeless as to what else
may be out there.

I am reading as much as possible, but any additional pointers in this area
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again, Scott
