I don't understand why you can't just setup another Apache config under a different port? I use 8080 for instance. Then have that instance point to your test lib. It would take about 5 minutes to setup because all you have to do is copy the production Apache instance, you don't need an entire partition. Is it a political thing?

I've been asking for a real test environment for months (years, if you count my time here as a consultant). I've been told forever that "as soon as we get the new box"... I was in a meeting last week to discuss the installation with our BP, and come to find out, the other plans for the box preclude carving out a small partition for my use.

If wishes were horses, all beggars would ride. If I had my sandbox, I'd put in another 20-30 hours a week working on this stuff (over and above the 55 I put in now). I've never been bleeding edge (rarely worked with latest OS releases, etc) but I've always been ahead of 80% of midrange developers I know. I learn best by doing, and now I'm not allowed to do. >Anyway, if you're stuck with RPG and RPG-CGI, then Colin and I are >probably the wrong people to ask. Oh... have you tried Net.data?
