General :: Command Path Is In PATH But Bash Does Not Find The Command
Jul 12, 2011
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:

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.

When 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.

When I run "netstat -a" commnand, it display:
Active UNIX domain sockets (servers and established)
Proto RefCnt Flags Type State I-Node Path
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 20269 /tmp/.gdm_socket
...
unix 2 [ ] DGRAM 997161
unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 942628 /tmp/.X11-unix/X0
unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 942627
unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 942626 /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 ....
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 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 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.

We have two paths. First one is directory, second either dir or file.
/a/b/c and /a/d/e.txt
Relative path from first path to second will be: ../../d/e.txt
How to get it in linux terminal?
PS: For those who ask "what is use case?" - creating lots of relative symlinks (just as an example)

Is there a command to know " From where a specific RPM package was downloaded & installed ( The full HTTP/FTP path ) " ? For example, if I had previously installed Firefox from here [URL] is there a specific rpm query, or any other place, from where I can get the full ftp path back.

I came across this reult of the type command (hashed) in another post. (see below).
Code:
fraespappp8:/data/apps > type topic_file_publish.sh
topic_file_publish.sh is hashed (/data/apps/pnbgstk/publication/topic_file_publish.sh)
This (result = hashed) is new to me.
I wonder which kernel/distro/shell it is from.

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.
Code:
prg ~: echo $PATH
/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>
only

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

/etc/profile

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?

I use this command:
Code:
find ./ -atime +360
to figure out the files that haven't been accessed since 360 days. The command above will return results like this:
Code:
/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
/uploads/2009/08/another-file-name.ext
... etc
I'm taking here about tins of directories, thousands of files. I'm looking to find a command that makes me able to move the results above to another path, and to create that path once it doesn't exist like below:
Code:
mv /uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext /old-files/uploads/2010/02/some-file-name.ext
But I want the executed command to create this path
Code:
/old-files/uploads/2010/02/
If it doesn't exist.

I have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?

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?

How shall i go about changing the absolute path to relative path, so that /home/git/mirror/android/adb/ndk.git gets converted to /mirror/android/adb/ndk.git //echo <command> "$prefix$PWD.git" ?? - anything for relative path?

I recently downloaded the program cronometer (calorie counter) and I love it. It is run using a script I wrote (its a java program) that is in the directory of the program files (so the program does not appear under any of the application menus). The script functions only when it is in the destination folder. I did make the script executable. A symbolic link to the file also works but again, only when in the same folder. When I try to make a launcher on the desktop or in CairoDock, citing the script path as the command, nothing happens. I have tried it with both "bash" and "sh" prefixes on the command without success. Any ideas on how I could get this launcher to work?
