I have an issue setting an environment variable on my MacBook Pro running macOS High Sierra.

In the terminal, I tried to setup an environment variable by executing export VARIABLE_URL=example.com. I then tried to check that the environment variable was set with echo $VARIABLE_URL, but it returned a blank result.

Now whenever I start up the terminal, I get this message:

Last login: Tue Apr  2 15:08:56 on ttys000

[1]   Done                    export VARIABLE_URL=example.com

[2]   Done                    appVersion=

[3]   Done                    osVersion=

[4]   Done                    deviceType=

[5]+  Done                    deviceId=

My-MacBook-Pro:~ me$

I tried adding the variable to my .bash_profile file, but even this doesn't set the variable properly. Every time I do echo $VARIABLE_URL, it returns blank.

I've set other variables in my .bash_profile, but this is the only variable that my computer refuses to add.

Even when I execute printenv, all environment variables are displayed except for VARIABLE_URL.

Why can't I set this environment variable?

macos bash terminal environment-variables

  Can you share your .bash_profile content? If not perhaps just what you are setting and what works as well.
