Hi,
I want to run a program under php/apache that requires me to set an
environment variable. I also need to add the program's directory to
the PATH variable. In bash in my own profile, I needed to add the
following to get it to work correctly:
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin/phd2fasta
export PATH
Hi (sorry, my previous message was sent before I finished),
I want to run a program under php/apache that requires me to set an
environment variable. I also need to add the program's directory to
the PATH variable. In bash in my own profile, I needed to add the
following to get it to work correctly:
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/phd2fasta:/usr/local/bin/phred
export PATH
export PHRED_PARAMETER_FILE=/usr/local/bin/phred/phredpar.dat
How can I give the apache user these variables? I have already tried
by puting them in apachectl and restarting apache, but nothing
changed. I have also tried by using the php command setenv and the
php variable $_SERVER with no results.
Thank you for your help.
No one has anything...? :(

This is totally apache related.
I need to set an environment variable (PHRED_PARAMETER_FILE) for the
apache user. The php is there only to show information.
Just in case anyone who is doing the exact same thing as me is
looking, this is what I did. In the end, the right solution was not
to edit the environment variables but it was to edit the readEnvVar.c
file in the phred directory to this (changing around the phredpar.dat
path), and then running make again:
#ifdef ANSI_C
int readEnvVar( Option *option )
#else
int readEnvVar( option )
Option *option;
#endif
{
pstrcpy( option->parFileName,
"/......../phredpar.dat", PHRED_PATH_MAX );
return( OK );
}
