That is correct and I would myself prefer dir named without spaces. But this is 
a requirement which I need to fulfill. So I do not have a way out.
If there is any tried solution or suggestion, please let me know!

Subject: AW: [users@httpd] Escaping space in SetEnv [wd-vc]

In my experience, having blanks in a UNIX path is such a PITA that I do 
everything to avoid it. Everytime you need to hand it over you have to worry 
how many escapes (\) you have to do so that it arrives correctly at the end of 
the information chain.
It is MUCH less hassle to simply use underlines.

Therefore it is my advice to repair the "broken" directory name to my_dir and 
live happily ever after.

Betreff: [users@httpd] Escaping space in SetEnv [wd-vc]
Hi All,

I am trying to set an environment variable using SetEnv directive. I need to 
set a value containing space characters. Any help on how to escape spaces in 
the variable value?
For example:

SetEnv dir_root "/dir1/m1/s1/my dir"

I tried enclosing the value in quotations, escaping space using backslash, \040 
and \s. Nothing seems to be working.


Regards,
Priyanka
