Hi I have defined a SetEnv Directive this way: SetEnv BASE_PATH /tmp/smthg I would like to re-use this variable in another SetEnv Directive, e.g.: SetEnv PATHS $BASE_PATH/a:$BASE_PATH/b:$BASE_PATH/c:... But $BASE_PATH is not interpreted as a variable. I tried with quotes, back-splash, ... How can I re-use this variable in another SetEnv Directive ? ThanksYou should be able to do this via: - Use a RewriteCond to match against the BASE_PATH variable - Use a RewriteRuke with an ENV= flag to set PATHS using the back reference to the matched variable Clumsy, but should work. If the values are in fact static, i.e. do not depend in the request, virtual host etc., you can actually use the fact, that Apache allows you to resolve unix environment variables (not the same as Apache environment variables) inside the Apache configuration. The syntax is ${VARNAME} (do not drop the curly braces). - Set env var outside of Apache before starting:
It does exactly what I want.But I cannot do it automatically if apache is started automatically at boot time. Except if I add this in /etc/init.d/httpd2 script but will have to re-do it each time apache is updated.
BASE_PATH=/var/smthg
export BASE_PATH
Use variable inside Apache config:
SetEnv PATHS ${BASE_PATH}/a:${BASE_PATH}/b:${BASE_PATH}/c:...
or
<Directory ${BASE_PATH}/somesubdir>
etc.
Regards,
Rainer
