I think I figured it out now, I set it from the httpd.conf like this SetEnv VAR "Value" and restart the apache, now it works.
thank you all for the suggestions, - reynard

That usually works.
: but it doesn't make a difference.
Perhaps it's not an environment variable problem.

That will set the variable across the entire server and is one recommended way. What happened when you tried that?

Show us your code. Let us confirm your reasoning.
