Error description
When specifying multiple environment variables in a directive, IHS will only use the last environment variable's value found for all the previous environment variables. An example of this is: bin/envvars: export LEVEL=TEST export SYSTEM=MVS1 conf/httpd.conf: AuthName "${SYSTEM}-${LEVEL}-IHS"
Local fix
use only 1 environment variable in a directive

**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of IBM HTTP Server with * * $-prefixed variables in httpd.conf * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When multiple variables are * * substituted within the same * * directive, the last value might be * * substituted for all variables. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The memory returned by getenv() is likely to be be reused by subsequent calls to getenv().
