Apache 2.2.14-r1 doen't get environment variables for CGI scripts. KEEPENV into /etc/conf.d/apache2 doen't work. Reproducible: Always
Please read this document: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/env.html and explain better what "doesn't get environment variables" mean and how's it a bug.
I believe this is the same issue as bug 46925 and bug 92891. Bugs were opened and closed, init script went through dozens of revisions, and we still don't have a way to set environment variable without modifying /etc/init.d/apache2.
For starters you didn't include emerge --info. And on another note, it's a baselayout/openrc *feature* to filter environment variables. /etc/rc.conf <snip> # By default we filter the environment for our running scripts. To allow other # variables through, add them here. Use a * to allow all variables through. #rc_env_allow="VAR1 VAR2" </snip> If you want env variables passed to Apache, you need to define them in /etc/conf.d/apache2 (or, in general, in configuration file for the particular service used by the initscript) or use the above setting yourself. So, once again - please, describe your issue *in detail*, and provide required information, such as steps to reproduce and emerge --info.

I'm trying to use in my CGI scripts some environment variables (e.g. $PERL5LIB or $R_HOME), which are already been set in /etc/profile. The perl script (below) is quite simple: --- #!/usr/bin/perl print "LD_LIBRARY_PATH: $ENV{'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'}\n"; print "PATH: $ENV{'PATH'}\n"; print "R_HOME: $ENV{'R_HOME'}\n"; --- The only variable that i see is the PATH. --- LD_LIBRARY_PATH: PATH: /bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.3.4:/usr/kde/4.3/sbin:/usr/kde/4.3/bin:/usr/lib64/subversion/bin:/opt/vmware/server/bin:/opt/vmware/vix/bin R_HOME: --- My rc.conf (/etc/rc.conf) doesn't have the option rc_env_allow, but even so i set this option, restart the server, and nothing happen. Observation: I put the PassEnv directives into the httpd.conf, but only the SetEnv works for me.
(In reply to comment #5) > I'm trying to use in my CGI scripts some environment variables (e.g. > $PERL5LIB or $R_HOME), which are already been set in /etc/profile. Well, then see above... it simply won't work like that and never did, because it's not supposed to in the first place. See the baselayout documentation. The examples I've shown are for baselayout-2/openrc.
Should be /etc/conf.d/env_whitelist for the legacy baselayout-1, so stick your stuff there.
