Re: User profile in secure pages (https)

That is not normal. The environment variable REMOTE_USER normally contains the user name that is provided during basic authentication (or nothing if its not password protected). It would help to see your web server configuration.

The same program in a non-secure library receives the user profile by
creating a field with INZ(*USER) or in the program status DS.

If you're using basic authentication, I think you need to get the user profile from the REMOTE_USER environment variable.

It's been a while since I worked on a RPG web app ... but I'm pretty sure the web server always runs under the same user profile.
