I am running Red Hat Linux Enterprise 5; I am always using the export command to set environment variables.Are there any other ways to set environment variables and what are the advantages/disadvantages of them?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know many people have asked about environment variables before, but I am having a hard time dealing with these paths while ensuring I don't mess around with the original settings. How would you go about executing these commands in Ubuntu in terms of environment variables?
put /home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/bin:/home/stanley/Downloads ns-allinone-2.34/tcl8.4.18/unix:/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/tk8.4.18/unixinto your PATH environment; so that you'll be able to run itm/tclsh wish/xgraph.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
(1) You MUST put
/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13,
/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/lib,
into your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

I am running an application which requires setting environment variables to be set.At the moment, the way I am achieving this is by exporting the EV at the command line, and then running the app from the command line.I want to be able to run the app from my menu (it is already a menu item after I installed it).How may I set the env var so that it is always available, so I can just run the app from the menu instead of from the CLI?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to set arbitrary environment variables for my graphical login on linux. I am not talking about starting a terminal and exporting environment variables within the terminal, because those variables only exist within that one terminal. I want to know how to set an environment variable that will apply to all programs started in my graphical session.
In other words, what's the Xorg equivalent of ~/.bash_login?
I am using Linux some years, but since I built a LFS, I feel noobish again. Now with the help of BLFS I am setting up my environment and somewhere I incidentally read, that not every variable is inherited by a child Bash shell. As for the $PS1 and $PS2 variables I know, that they are not inherited by non-interactive Bash shells (and there is no reason why they should in my opinion). Well, as for my first thread I hope the title gives enough information on what I want to know. But anyways: Which environment variables are not inherited by Bash shells?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSometimes it is possible to trick a Linux app by calling it like this:
HOME=/tmp/foo myapp
This would make myapp think /tmp/foo is the home directory, it won't try to get the user id, find its home directory via getpwent(). This is useful when myapp must be forced to dump some of its config files into a non-standard location different than ~.
A similar trick can be done like this: LANG=foo LC_ALL=bar myapp
This is useful when myapp needs to be called once with a different locale without having to make the change persistent by using the export bash built-in or even modify stuff in /etc/profile.
Is it possible to pull the same trick with time and date? The goal is to make an app use another time than the system ones. The final goal - to make timestamps that appear in logs/commit messages not being tied to the system time.
I was using the command export, but it looks that after some time the set variables disappears. What is the easiest way of setting an environment variable forever?

I'm trying to compile Ardour on jessie amd64 using the Debian source code (there's already an ardour package but I want to use different compile options). I've applied the Debian patches and have all the required dependencies installed.
Scons quits with a KeyError message from python2.7 saying that os.environ['DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS'] is not defined.
Checking with 'dpkg-archtecture -l' shows that DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS=linux, but 'print os.environ["DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS"]' in python says that name 'os' is not defined. The scons script has 'import os' at the top so it should be seeing it.
How do I make this visible to python (I'm assuming this problem is specific to the jessie python2.7 installation and not python in general)?
How do I edit my .bash_profile so recursive directories are on my path without manually typing all the directories?

I've added an export command to /etc/profile, but the environment variables don't show up when not using a terminal.
For example: when I add:
Code:
To my /etc/profile (then open a new terminal so it registers) and run a graphical program from that terminal, the graphical program can see see the environment variable A.
However if I add the export command to my /etc/profile, then reboot so everything registers, then run that same graphical program from a menu (such as Applications->Accessories->Myprogram), it can't see the environment variable.
What I'm trying to say is basically, my environment variables only show up if I run a program in a shell. Is there a way to set environment variables that will show even without a shell?

I installed debian 8 on a usb drive using this guide. I used a debian 8.2 64-bit image with mate. It has all worked as I wanted it to. However recently I needed to change the PATH variable, and create another environment variable. I have not been able to do neither. What I have tryed (from google):
1. adding "export PATH=$PATH:/xxxx/" to etc/profile or to /home/user/.profile
2. adding ":/xxxx/" to a point in /etc/profile where the PATH variable is set
3. creating a script in /etc/profile.d which run "export PATH=$PATH:/xxxx/"
(where xxxx is the the location i want to add)
I'm newbie on Debian, and I just installed Debian 8.2. (I used to run openSuse, and I see Debian is quite different.)
Where should I set environment variables (like PATH or JAVA_HOME) in order to affect all users?
I read some documentation about that, but It is not clear for me, the difference among "/etc/environment", "/etc/bash.bashrc" and "/etc/profile".
(In openSuse, I used to create a file "/etc/bash.bashrc.local" and set the environment variables there, in order these settings are not lost with updates.)
I've never done much scripting myself and I'm quite unused to the bash as well, but anyway, Here's my problem.
I've a script which is supposed to set some environment variables, using export. However, if I check those variables using echo, they appear not to be set (they are empty). If I set the same variables manually, everything is fine, of course, but I don't want to set them each time manually.
In terminal, I use the command " export XXX="xxx" " to create a new environment variable, and then " env | grep XXX " to check if it is existed. But when I run the terminal again, the variable I created is disappeared. I've found it just can't save the variables I created..
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've created a new environment variable and updated another one (PATH). I just want to save this changes once after reboot and forever. This is because I want to run a program (tecplot) just typing 'tec360' in the command line. If I create those new variable ( TEC_360_2008=/usr/tec360_2008 ) and update the PATH variable ( export PATH=$PATH:$TEC_360_2008/bin ) then bash detect the command 'tec360' and it runs my program. The problem is that this changes are not saved after rebooting.
According to the manual, I have to update the .bash_profile in my home directory but I don't have this file in this directory (neither in other directory). I only have .bash_history, .bash_logout and .bashrc in the home directory. I have updated .bashrc (typing . ./.bashrc) but it is not working.
