TWO_TASK should not be "NONE", it should be removed completely when running against a local database. You must also add ORACLE_SID. So if your local database instance is WWW, replace the line with TWO_TASK with "setenv ORACLE_SID WWW". The "wow" shellscript does different things depending on whether the variable DEBUG is set to "NONE", "POST", or "GET". If it is "NONE", wow will function normally, that is, it will pick up your input items from html forms and pass them on to the pl/sql procedure entered as part of the url. Set DEBUG to "POST" or "GET" when you want to test the wow script interactively from the command line.

To reduce load on your machine you may also replace the call to "./wowstub ..." with "exec ./wowstub ...".
