 |

With Apache 2.2 running on Win7 Pro 32-bit as a development environment.
In an otherwise properly running development site I'm experimenting with | Code: | SetEnvIf Remote_Addr 127.0.0.1 LOCALHOST
<IfDefine !LOCALHOST>
foo
</IfDefine> |
My expectation is that, because I'm accessing the site on my box from my box, the variable LOCALHOST would be set. It is not - I get a 500 error. If there is no bogus text the the IfDefine block access is as expected. php reports REMOTE_ADDR as 127.0.0.1.
I admit my knowledge of apache is highly limited, but all I've read so far leads me to think that the variable should be set. I have at least confirmed that mod_setenvif is loaded. So obviously I'm missing something somewhere.
But what?
thanks.

uh no, not what IfDefine is for.
from http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#ifdefine
The parameter-name argument is a define as given on the httpd command line via -Dparameter- , at the time the server was started.
In 2.2, certain things allow you to use the environment to trigger, like logging, access, but not everything. And unfortunately there is no IfEnv.
# requests from localhost not logged.
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr 127.0.0.1 LOCALHOST
CustomLog logs/access_log common env=!LOCALHOST
# Allow access unless from certain countries with mod_geoip or by IP
SetEnvIf GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE US BLACKLIST="BLACKLIST"
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx BLACKLIST
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=BLACKLIST |

ah, the trouble ignorance can cause. Thanks for filling me in. I won't try this. I've got enough other things to break; I think I'll leave this alone.
