I would like to add the apache start script path to my roots PATH variable permanently. Can you please help me out???
Can't get it to work by modifying files in /etc/env.d. I add a file named 00myfile to /etc/env.d folder with the updates, but they do not propagate when i run env-update && source /etc/profile. Apparently the root is not being updated by /etc/profile updates>HELP.

Why not put it in /etc/profile

How? Just add a '$PATH:' option somewhere?
