CGI user can be set differently as well, with the ServerUserID directive.

Job user for a CGI program is QTMHHTP1, not QTMHHTTP. Even with the UserID
directive used, I think it would remain as QTMHHTP1, although the Current
User would be the specified value.

The subsystem in which the job is running would certainly be QHTTPSVR.
Also, as an absolute confirmation, you could use QWVRCSTK to go back up the
library list to find out what program called your CGI program and determine
if it's the appropriate CGI module (I forget what it's called - I think
it's QTMHCGI).

In fact, Jon, you could probably have a simple procedure called isWebJob()
which calls QWVRCSTK and then determines the *first* procedure in the call
stack, to see if it's QTMHCGI. Easy enough to do, and return a boolean...

There are things that can confuse this - there is an Apache directive,
UserID, which CAN have a user other than QTMHHTTP, and the server jobs
will run under that. I don't know if the job user is still QTMHHTTP and
the job is swapped to UserID - in that case, your test might be pretty
good.

I think of other possibilities - look for a member in QUSRSYS/QATMHINSTC
of the same name as the job name - that member has startup information
for the server instance. I don't know if that is guaranteed to be the
same, however.

Would the job user (not current user) be useful for that?

If the job user is QTMHHTTP, then it's probably running in a web server.

Not sure if that works for PHP though.
