How change the PATH variable enviroment of apache

Question

In my phpinfo(), in the section Apache Environment, i want change the value of the variable PATH. This is possible ?

EDIT 1:

I try SetEnv PATH /mypath in httpd.conf on a centos server, restart service and verify the change i see again a phpinfo(), and not change.

EDIT 2:

I edit the /etc/profile and add the PATH variable for all linux users,( but i cant restart the entire server for apply this change).

Did you restart Apache after making the change? How are you testing whether or not it works? Is it appropriate to just edit the `PATH` variable in the `.profile` file of the user that runs Apache? — drew010, Sep 11 '12 at 23:21

What output does `var_dump($_ENV['PATH'], $_SERVER['PATH'], getenv('PATH');` show? — drew010, Sep 11 '12 at 23:27

You can use putenv(), example adding "/foo":

php > putenv('PATH=' . getenv('PATH')); print_r(getenv('PATH'));
/home/jpic/env/bin:/home/jpic/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
php > putenv('PATH=' . getenv('PATH') . ':' . '/foo'); print_r(getenv('PATH'));
/home/jpic/env/bin:/home/jpic/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/foo
