4.1.0_release_blocker requested: [Issue 124509] MacOSX 64 crash in
the scripting environment due to getenv("PATH") returning a null value
rony@apache.org has asked for 4.1.0_release_blocker:
Issue 124509: MacOSX 64 crash in the scripting environment due to
getenv("PATH") returning a null value
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124509
------- Additional Comments from rony@apache.org
Using the AOO Java scripting framework to load the ooRexx interpreter via JNI,
the ooRexx interpreter causes a crash while initializing as it receives a null
value when issuing a getenv("PATH"). It seems that for unknown reasons the
process environment is not set up properly.
[ooRexx needs the process environment being set up correctly, in order to find
its other pieces to load while initializing.]
As this works flawlessly on 32- and 64-bit Linux and on 32-bit Windows, and
also used to work at least on 32-bit MacOSX in the OOo 3.x days, I assume this
to be a regression.
In the case that someone can spot and fix this on MacOSX, I would like to
propose this as a showstopper bug. Any help to fix this, highly appreciated!

Updated the issue <https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124509> with a list of environment
variables defined when the Java scripting framework executes a script. Maybe the names of those
environment symbols (like PYTHONPATH or URE_BOOTSTRAP) may allow to spot the code area, where this
gets defined on MacOSX?
