Try this,

if ((home = getenv("Unix_env_Variable")) == NULL)

	{
	  fprintf(log_file,"\nEnvironment Variable \"IUnix_env_Variable\" not
defind.\n");
	printf("\nUnix_env_Variable not defined");
	  exit(1);
	}
	
	sprintf(fname, "%s/out/FM6700.log", home);

	if ((log_file = fopen(fname,"w")) == NULL)
	{
	   fprintf(log_file, "Could not create the log file: %s\n", fname);
	   exit(1);
	}

Let me know if this works.
