Depends which server you're using, I guess (certainly, os.environ is
available in the usual standalone Python execution environment on
Windows, but programs running in webservers will no doubt have all
kinds of variations).  Is this IIS or something?

If you want to have the same environment as on Linux, remember Apache
runs on Windows too (if that's what you were using).

Read your server's documentation.
