Hello,

When I try to read the value of a file into an environment variable using setenv and < I get back an empty environment variable e.g

setenv AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID < /etc/xrootd/access_key

Doesn't change the environment variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID.

I can however read from a file into a variable using set and then copy that variable to the environment variable e.g

set ACCESS_KEY < /etc/xrootd/access_key
setenv AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = $ACCESS_KEY

Makes the environment variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID have the value of the contents of /etc/xrootd/access_key

setenv also works if I were to pass the value directly e.g

setenv AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = 1234

I am using xrootd 5.5.1 from the epel repository.

Thanks
