Setting environment variables for accessing in PHP when using Apache

Question

I have a Linux environment and I have a PHP Web Application that conditionally runs based on environment variables using getenv in PHP  I need to know how these environment variables need to be set for the application to work correctly  I am not sure how to set this up on Apache   Also  I need to be able to configure separate environment variables for each domain separately   Please advice on how can I achieve this

If your server is Ubuntu and Apache version is 2.4

Server version: Apache/2.4.29 (Ubuntu)

Then you export variables in "/etc/apache2/envvars" location.

Just like this below line, you need to add an extra line in "/etc/apache2/envvars" export GOROOT=/usr/local/go

Unbelievable  but on httpd 2 2 on centos 6 4 this works   Export env vars in  etc sysconfig httpd  export mydocroot  var www html   Then simply do this      lt VirtualHost   80 gt    DocumentRoot   mydocroot   lt  VirtualHost gt    Then finally      service httpd restart

You can also do this in a  htaccess file assuming they are enabled on the website   SetEnv KOHANA ENV production   Would be all you need to add to a  htaccess to add the environment variable

Something along the lines        lt VirtualHost hostname 80 gt            SetEnv VARIABLE NAME variable value         lt  VirtualHost gt
