As i told you, i am passing values from Standalone java application to this perl program abc.pl. These are the variables which are set in the beginingof the program. This are with respect to the server. The program previously was the server. Now i want to make them with respect to my machine(LOCAL). 
$ErrloglogFile = "/export/data/secure03.principal.com/htdocs
/logs/pension/
pnactval.log";
$AcclogFile = "/export/data/secure03.principal.com/htdocs/
logs/pension/pnactval.acclog";
$ArchiveDir = "/export/home/pension/logs/rsc";
$zone = `/usr/bin/date \+\%Z`;
$gzip = "/usr/local/bin/gzip -d -c";
$grep = "/usr/bin/grep";
$cgi = "/cgi-bin/pension/utilities/rscdetail";
$cat = "/usr/bin/cat";

$tempDir = "/tmp";
$randnum = int( rand(99999999) );
$tempFile = "$today$randnum.pnactval";

# ReadParse # Reads in GET or POST data, converts it to unescaped text, #and puts one key=value in each member of the list "@in" # Also creates key/value pairs in %in, using '\0' to #separate multiple selections # If a variable-glob parameter (e.g., *cgi_input) is passed #to ReadParse, information is stored there, rather than in #$in, @in, and #%in.

As you can see it checks in the beginning portion whether $ ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'}eq "GET" or "POST". now do i have to make any changes over here? PS: This is not the entire code(just the part of it).
