When i tried to call the getenv("SERVER_ADDR") method, the return is an empty string.
I know that I can use $_SERVER["SERVER_ADDR"] but I must use the getenv() method.

Not a bug...
I've just seen that this method is only available in CGI mode...
Sorry

yes, that's why we have the $_SERVER array,
as an abstraction Layer to Werbser APIs 
variable access methods

CGI has to rely on process environment
variables for parameter passing, but most
server-module APIs have faster methods to
do this and usualy don't bother to set the
environment variables
