I am trying to require() a file using its absolute name. In command line =

mode everything works fine, but not in Apache:

[Fri Feb 27 17:45:07 2009] [error] Can't locate=20

How can I require() a file when using Perl in CGI mode? Do I have to=20

I guess I am using mod_perl:

Thanks!

/home/stf/public_html/test/arcv/public_html/../common.pl

I believe the ../ in there may be what's throwing things off. That
would probably interpolate as
/home/stf/public_html/test/arcv/common.pl

.... which, unless that is indeed where common.pl is located, would
generate the error you're seeing.

To answer your question, yes, you can absolutely do a require
"/full/path/to/file.pl" just like that without modifying @INC.

Yes this is where common.pl is located.
It was just a permission problem. :-)
