PerlSetEnv not working consistently in libapache2-mod-perl

Hi,

I was wondering if you were still having this problem?

Thanks
chuck

I've tested this again in Ubuntu 9.04 using libapache2-mod-perl2 2.0.4-5ubuntu1,
and the problem seems to have been resolved.

The PerlSetEnv is actually working before any perl block is used and before PerlRequire (as early as possible) which is good!

I guess this can now be closed.

Thanks for the quick response. I am closing this now.

Regards
chuck

Hi, i am experiencing the same problem:

httpd.conf

        <Perl>

        </Perl>
        PerlSetEnv TESTENV "asdf"
          <Perl>
        warn Data::Dumper::Dumper(\%ENV);
        </Perl>

Output:

root@joakim-laptop:/etc/apache2# service apache2 start
 * Starting web server apache2 $VAR1 = {
          'TESTENV' => 'asdf',
          'PATH' => '/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/adm:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/misc:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2tss/bin',
          'MOD_PERL_API_VERSION' => 2,
          'MOD_PERL' => 'mod_perl/2.0.5'
        };

httpd.conf
        PerlSetEnv TESTENV "asdf"
          <Perl>
        warn Data::Dumper::Dumper(\%ENV);

Description: Integration of perl with the Apache2 web server
 mod_perl allows the use of Perl for just about anything
 Apache-related, including <Perl> sections in the config
 files and the famous Apache::Registry module for caching
 compiled scripts.
 .
 It can produce anywhere from a 400% to 2000% speed increase
 on sites using perl scripts, and is used on many large script-
 based web sites - for example, http://slashdot.org.
