Item4777: {SafeEnvPath} deserves a decent default
Priority: Low
Current State: Closed
Released In: 1.1.5
Target Release: patch
Applies To: Engine
Component: Configure
Branches: Release01x01 trunk
With some heuristics it should be possible to provide a reasonable
default value for
$TWiki::cfg{SaveEnvPath}
at least for the
"positive" cases (Linux). Having yet another parameter which needs to
be configured to get rid of the warning is just annoying, especially
in cases where
$ENV{PATH}
has already been secured by a decent web
server configuration.
In any case the current value of
$ENV{PATH}
should be reported in
the section for
$TWiki::cfg{SaveEnvPath}
, but I have no idea whether
the current doc-generating mechanism would allow that. And there
should be a checkbox "keep server setting". But that's not even
"Low", that's "Enhancement"

Let's not forget a version of a usable
SafeEnvPath
that is usable on a mac, too.
