tool_env.getvar on Linux

edited Jan 23, 2023 2:43AM in Oracle Forms (MOSC) 9 commentsAnswered ✓

In forms I am using tool_env.getvar to retrieve user environment variables set by my configuration files to use on the form. I have a couple of user defined variables, and using tool_env.getvar, these return a value in the windows environment, but for some reason, in Linux, it does not return any values.

I have tested to make sure it is using the correct environment file .. (I changed ORACLE_HOME and it failed to run my form seeing as ORACLE_HOME was set incorrectly). I have made sure everything is case sensitive as I know in Linux this can be an issue.

Howdy, Stranger!
