SetEnv / PerlSetEnv issue
Hi List, I am running Apache with some perl scripts and currently I am passing configuration variables using SetEnv, for example: SetEnv FOO BAR In the code: my $foo_config = $ENV{FOO}; The problem is that I need to share these configuration variables with mod_perl handlers. However in mod_perl handlers $ENV{FOO} is undef despite the SetEnv directive. So of course I tried PerlSetEnv so that I can use the dir_config() method of the Apache object. But then $ENV{FOO} doesn't work in the CGI script. Everything works ok if I do: SetEnv FOO BAR PerlSetEnv FOO BAR But I would like to avoid duplicating config values for obvious maintenability issues... Can anyone think of a way to doing a super SetEnv directive that would set FOO in both %ENV (for CGI scripts) and in $r-dir_config() ?

Re: SetEnv / PerlSetEnv issue
In which request phase you try to access envar ? If you using MP1 it doesn't happen until the fixup phase (from the guide). Ok, this clears things up... I needed two config variables for my PerlInitHandler. Well, it's only a couple of variables that aren't likely to change once set, so I guess it's bareable to have them duplicated :-/.
