configuring with apache module ssl

hi

i have httpd.conf.local to load the module -

LoadModule weblogic_module ${JAVA_HOME} /usr/local/apps/weblogic/proxy_plug_in/lib/mod_wl_24.so

but it tells me i'm not defining the variable. based on - Installing the Oracle WebLogic Server Proxy Plug-In for Apache HTTP Server

i've tried defining it in httpd.conf.local as -

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk-11.0.7

and also in /usr/sbin/envvars and and also with SetEnv but i never get the variable defined -

:warn] [pid 80364] AH00111: Config variable ${JAVA_HOME} is not defined

so i can't then import the oraclewallet.
