Question

Host: Amazon Web Services

Domain: Godaddy

SSL: Godaddy

Framework: Laravel 4.2

PHP: PHP5.6

Apache: Apache 2.4.16

File located: /var/www/html/test

My code:

$api_request = 'https://'.apache_getenv("HTTP_HOST") . apache_getenv("REQUEST_URI");

Error: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function apache_getenv()

It looks like it doesn't exist.

Laravel App Located at: html. Then another two folders with laravel: test and live.

html/ (Laravel app landing page)
- app/
- bootstrap/
- packages/
- public/
- vendor/
- test/ (Laravel app)
- live/ (Laravel app)
- index.php

It works properly at html app. but in test app the function doesn't exist anymore.

Is your [Server API](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16414054/find-out-how-php-is-running-on-server-cgi-or-fastcgi-or-mod-php) the Apache handler? — Álvaro González, Nov 18 '15 at 10:27
maybe interesting? [getenv — Gets the value of an environment variable](http://php.net/manual/en/function.getenv.php). — Ryan Vincent, Nov 18 '15 at 11:37
@JonStirling I tried. Gives me the error of undefined index `HTTP_HOST` — Marlon Buendia, Nov 19 '15 at 00:38
I think we need a clarification... Are we talking about a web application (that runs trough Apache) or some command line test suite? — Álvaro González, Nov 19 '15 at 09:32

Can you please try

$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] and  $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']

In place of apache_getenv some times apache does not allow you to access the functions without the module activation.

Hope this will help you.

@MarlonBuendia - Seriously, all symptoms suggest you are running PHP from the command line, not through a web server. – Álvaro González Nov 21 '15 at 20:05

Looks like apache_getenv is disabled in your php.ini

Enable it by

Edit php.ini (By default /etc/php.ini)

Remove apache_getenv from disable_functions section

save and exit.

restart apache/php handler.

what word should I search in php.ini? – Marlon Buendia Nov 18 '15 at 10:20
i found it but its empty `disable_functions =` – Marlon Buendia Nov 18 '15 at 10:26
There was nothing to erase. – Marlon Buendia Nov 19 '15 at 00:38
Are you using a shared hosting environment? If yes then there might be override in server's main php.ini. – Harikrishnan Nov 19 '15 at 03:42

The error message is "PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function apache_getenv()", not "Warning: apache_getenv() has been disabled for security reasons". – Álvaro González Nov 21 '15 at 20:04
