Container won't echo environment variables

[thebaron93]

I gave following command docker run -it --name <some name> --env LDAP_PASS=<some pass> --env ORGANIZATION=<some value> --env BASE_DN=<some value> --env TODOMAIN=<some value> <image name>

then i gave docker exec <container name> echo ${LDAP_PASS}
it outputs a new line
same for all other variables.
then docker exec -it <container name> /bin/bash
inside container
$ echo ${LDAP_PASS}
the same newline
although if run above command in a script it works as expected.
Thank You for your time :)

did you put single quotes around ${LDAP_PASS} to make sure your local shell doesn't try to do the substitution?

[thebaron93]

Yeah, sorry my bad. :(
It works with single quotes.
Thanks for your time.
