Zend SetEnv in .htaccess not working

Question

I installed Zend on my ubuntu homeserver. In my .htaccess file i have the following code:

SetEnv APPLICATION_ENV development

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQU         


        

Answer 1

In order to use SetEnv within a .htaccess file, I believe you need to set...

AllowOverride FileInfo

...within the relevant virtualhost directory block. (And then restart the httpd service as per usual.)

Additionally, depending on how you're running PHP, it's possible that such information is being stripped out. (e.g.: suexec will effectively remove all non-HTTP* environment vars.)
