Software :: Environment Variables And Konsole In KDE?

Apr 27, 2011

I have installed jdk in my pc, and i've set up the environment variable on the .bashrc file in my home directory although i can use java's compiler and interpreter in terminal (xfce) if i try to use these commands in konsole (kde) for some reason they don't work. do i need to edit other file?

Nevermind, i found out that konsole was being executed with -e $SHELL -l parameters, once i took them out, and just ran konsole everything worked.

Slackware :: Display The Full $PROMPT_COMMAND Environment Variable In The Konsole Title Bar?

Mar 18, 2011

IN 3.5.10 I am able to display the full $PROMPT_COMMAND environment variable in the Konsole title bar. Kind of handy and I did not need to display that information in the $PROMPT variable.

In 4.5.5 I am having trouble figuring out how to make that work correctly. The title bar displays only the directory name rather than the full path and user name.

This is my $PROMPT_COMMAND:

history -a;echo -ne "33]0;${USER}@`uname -n`: ${PWD}07"

All I see in the title bar is:

dirname: bash

I should see:

username@hostname: full path to present working directory

Debian :: Python 2.7 Can't See OS Environment Variables

Aug 23, 2015

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)?

Software :: Set Environment Variables That Don't Need Terminal ?

Jun 12, 2011

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?

Debian :: Unable To Change Environment Variables

Dec 17, 2015

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)

Debian Configuration :: Environment Variables For All Users

Nov 27, 2015

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.)

Fedora :: Script Unable To Set Environment Variables

Nov 24, 2010

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.

General :: Exporting Environment Variables In Ubuntu?

Jun 2, 2010

I 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.

General :: Setting (permenant) Environment Variables In 10.0.4

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?

Ubuntu :: Update Environment Variables Forever?

Apr 7, 2010

I'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.

Ubuntu :: Sudo Doesn't Keep Environment Variables

Jul 19, 2010

When I execute something with sudo, the environment that it executes in doesn't have all the environment variables from /etc/profile{,.d/} defined. I googled around and found that there is a way to get the environment variables from the calling environment to be carried over to sudo's own environment, but that's not exactly what I want. I just want sudo to read the /etc/profile and /etc/profile.d/ before executing commands.

Ubuntu :: Setting Environment Variables In Server 10.04

Jul 4, 2011

I always have to google about setting environment path variables when I install new software. My basic problem is that I dont know whether these variables need to be set globally or not. I have read a number of mails/tutorials which say that Environment variables should be set by simply doing an export ..eg EDITOR=nano export EDITOR

additionally I have read that it should be written into /etc/bash.bashrc

But are these really global variables or local? I want the variables to be set
even after I have logged out.

so I could also write the variable here...

/etc/environment

or here

/etc/profile

Software :: Dchroot Environment Variables Not Consistent?

Feb 20, 2011

I've created a 32-bit chroot on my AMD64 installation. It works pretty well when I just type 'dchroot' but if I try to execute a 32-bit program from 64-bit land using 'dchroot <command>', the environment variables are all screwed up. I know I can use -d or --preserve-environment to keep my 64-bit environment but I don't want to do that because I want my PATH to change when I go into 32-bit land. Here's an example of what I am talking about:

Code:
me@box:~$ dchroot "echo $PATH"
I: [x86 chroot] Running command: ?echo $PATH?

Slackware :: SU Command - Environment Variables Missing

Jun 30, 2010

I've just noticed something odd with 'su'. When you run 'su' with both the '-' (aka -l) and -c command options like this: "su -l user -c command" it doesn't appear to run /etc/profile before running the specified command even though the -l option is specified. If you run "su -l user" without the -c it does run /etc/profile.

Now, on other linux such as fedora it works as expected and runs both /etc/profile followed by the command specified on the '-c'. I'm fairly sure it used to work this way on Slackware (and every other UNIX I've ever used) too. "su -l root -c env" is a good way to see, as you'll find most the environment variables are missing.
