Missing environment variables

[Aaron Ogle]

Hey guys,

With our Rocket.Chat server snap. We've had several cases now where users
come to us trying to figure out why it hasn't started yet after installing.

Our snap:
https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/blob/develop/.snapcraft/stable/snapcraft.yaml

rocketchat-mongo:
command: env LC_ALL=C mongod --smallfiles --dbpath=$SNAP_COMMON

After explaining to them how to get logs, it will say our mongo install is
missing the dbpath.

The exact error they are getting:
Error parsing command line: the argument for option '--dbpath' should
follow immediately after the equal sign

This seems like for some reason SNAP_COMMON isn't getting set.

I've confirmed that they are using version 2.15 of snap / snapd.

I also asked them to drop into the snap: sudo snap run --shell
rocketchat-server

Then do an: env to see if SNAP_COMMON is even set. From there it does seem
to be set.

Ideas?
