SYMPTOM(s):
Error 8297 when certain environment variables are added to broker's Environment section
Unable to start <service name> (8297)
FACT(s) (Environment):
The newly added environment variable are not visible to broker as part of OS environment variables
Example entries are

All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.1x
WebSpeed 3.1x
OpenEdge 10.x
CAUSE:
Bug # OE00191338
FIX:
The workaround it to use the hard path when expanding the environment variable instead of using the variable itself.
For example, chage
ROOT=/serve/devel
LOGDIR=$ROOT/log
to
ROOT=/serve/devel
LOGDIR=/serve/devel/log
