For example, what I have now as a root user on CentOS 5.5:
# setsebool
bash: setsebool: command not found
I need to enter /usr/sbin/setsebool to get it working
The same is with some other commands:
# service httpd restart
bash: service: command not found
And so on. I know, that I need to add path somewhere, as I did it before on FreeBSD. But I don't know where?
kernel 2.6.21.5, slackware 12.0
GNU bash 3.1.17
Code:
As you can see, /usr/local/bin is in the path. However, bash does not look for nasm in /usr/local/bin.
If I am root, things go well:
Code:
Does anyone know of a command I can use to partition a device without entering any menus? I want to run the command with all config parameters and flags like disk size, device name, partition number and type, etc and it should just create the required partition.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen I add some path in .bashrc by commenting out old path and adding new one like this:
#EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/old_play
EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/play
EXPORT PATH=$PATH:HOME_PLAY
After saving above changes, I enter the command: source ~/.bashrc Now if I do echo $PATH, the path shows both the old PLAY_HOME and new PLAY_HOME. This is really bad and messes up a lot of things in my project. This problem only goes away if I logout or reboot, a rather very long process. What is happening is that the old path is added to new path element and the old path includes the old path element you want to remove.
I just installed CentOS 5.4 (x86_64) and I encrypted my /home /var /tmp and /mnt/Storage partitions, along with my swap partition. My only complaint is that when I boot, I have to enter my password 4 times, and I did not pick a short password. The password is the same for all 4 partitions. Is there anyway I can set things up so I can just type my password once? Once I get everything set up, I won't be booting that often, but right now it is a PIA.

i am having a problem with the installation with ubuntu 10.10 during the installation, i was entering my setup info (login password, timezone, etc.) when everything stopped working, it wouldnt let me continue, the forward button wouldnt work. i let it set for a good 30 minutes but it wouldnt do anything.
so unable to continue, i restarted and tried to boot from my cd drive and now it wont boot from the drive, and since i let ubuntu delete my windows partition, i cant boot from it so i basically have a blank hard drive. the cd drive will boot other cds because i booted hirens boot cd in an attempt to make sure the cd drive was functioning and ran diagnostics to make sure the drive was alright.

On my Ubuntu server I'm running into an issue that I've never seen before even though I've been using Linux for many years. Basically sudo is not finding a command located in my path. Here is a transcript illustrating the problem.

/opt/ruby/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
prg ~: sudo echo $PATH

I have a quick question: how can I make the path short on the console? My problem is that if I descend 10 levels in a directory tree, the path becomes so long that it takes more, than one line of the console window. Is there a way to shorten it, and show only the name of the current directory, without the whole path, i.e., instead of
Code:
v923z@penguin: first/second/third/fourth/fifth/sixth/seventh/eighth/ninth/tenth>

I tried to install JRE to my remote Suse 11 SP1 linux.After i finished with files i typed like
export PATH=<my jre path>
now i have no bash commands - typing ls causes
-bash: ls: command not found
i think that i should re-export my PATH to the right value but i don't know what it should be. I tried differend values
/etc/profile
/usr/bin
When I run "netstat -a" commnand, it display:
Active UNIX domain sockets (servers and established)

unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 942627

Why some socket don't have Path name? And what mean's RefCnt = 2?
For example, I always go to this path:
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
but I don't want to type
cd
/user/something/somefolders/somewhere
in the terminal all the time, can I have some short hand to do so? for example, can I do something like
cd commandPlace
to replace the path?
I need to add a network path to a configuration file, but I can't figure out how to write the path.
The command dir \computernamesharename works in a Windows command line.
ls //computername/sharename/ does not work under Linux. ("No such file or directory.") ls smb://computername/sharename/ does not work either.
Nautilus shows the location as smb://computername/sharename/, and I can read and write in the shared directory, so it's mounted and I have access.
So how do I get it to work? How do I specify the path so a command line will recognize it?
I need a command to search for any file in a directory like so:
/home/*/upload/* and then change permissions any file in that directory.
Find doesn't seem to match what I need.
I logged into my Red Hat Enterprise Linux machine at work (use it for software development) and the primary GUI does not load. Instead, widgets appeared for xclock, xterm, and Firefox. In the terminal, I start typing in commands to try to figure out what's going on, but all commands are not found except pwd and echo. I 'echo $PATH' and that returns just an empty, blank line. 'echo $SHELL' lets me know I'm using cash.
The likely cause was my attempt to install Adobe Reader Firefox plugin yesterday. After it downloaded, I ran the binary but Firefox didn't seem to recognize that I had installed it, so I went into my .cshrc file and added the adobe folder to the path. That didn't seem to work, so I gave up, deleted the binary and the folder I installed to, and removed that directory from the path in the .cshrc file. This last thing (the export PATH line in that file) I'm certain is back exactly as it was before.
I have successfully added the /bin and /usr/bin back to the path from command line via
setenv PATH /usr/bin:/bin
but of course it doesn't stick after reboot nor does it magically load the primary GUI. I'd rather not go through the effort of creating a ticket for our company's Global Service Desk cuz there's no telling how long that could take to resolve. In the meantime, I can't do any programming.
I am looking out for a command which can give me the list of applications installed and the corresponding install paths for those.let me know if there is any such command. Also, i am using rpm command to get the list of packages installed(i am assuming that this shows the list of applications installed).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using CentOS5.5 & everytime it is showing command not found. If I export the path as below it will be working fine until a reboot. Again same error i.e command not found if I open new terminal. Every time I am exporting as below:
#export PATH=/sbin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/usr/sbin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/usr/bin/:$PATH
#export PATH=/bin/:$PATH
How can I set these permanently as that the paths should automatically be exported for everyone user whenever the system boots. And command completion also should happen for eg. #fdi (press tab), then it should show available options such as fdisk, etc.

I am total new to linux as I worked mostly on RTOS (symbian). My problem is, I need to find the file IOSTREAM.H and I am following commands below:

It shows No such File or Directory
We have two paths. First one is directory, second either dir or file.

I have installed CentOS 5.5 x86-64 on my HP 6710b laptop and currently am in the middle of adjusting it to my needs (software/hardware development). As stated in the subject I can't add /sbin to $PATH. I have tried editing .bash_profile in my home directory and adding /sbin to PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin, but it does not help. It's not a big problem, al though it would be much easier to use some commands (ifconfig for example) globaly.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use tcsh. When I execute by hand a command that is in my path...located in say "~/bin/myscript"....the command executes without an issue. I don't need to use the absolute path "~/bin/myscript", I can simply type the command "myscript" since the path "~/bin" is in my .tcshrc file. When I execute the same command from a script, I get a "command not found" error. A similar issue is when I use the absolute command, but a library necessary the programs' execution is defined within my .tcshrc file. I'll get a library not found error.
