Question

In short, phpinfo() prints this:

Environment
...
APACHE_LOG_DIR  /var/log/apache2
...

$_ENV is empty.

getenv('APACHE_LOG_DIR') returns /var/log.

What I want is the value that phpinfo() returns. How do I get the actual location of the Apache logs? More specificaly, I want a directory that I can create a new file via error_log in.

Answer 1

The variables_order determines which superglobal gets created, as mentioned in the manual. The E must be present for $_ENV to get created.
