[SOLVED] bash: scp: command not found

mahao_boy · 12-25-2011, 11:28 PM

Hi all,

When i try to transfer some doc from one server to another, i met this problem.

[root@esjirp62 ~]# scp .bashrc esjirp62new:~/p62
root@esjirp62new's password:
bash: scp: command not found
lost connection
[root@esjirp62 ~]# which scp
/usr/bin/scp

Just in a few minutes ago, i was using scp and now it is not working any more.

Why is this happening?

...............!!!

I just fix this problem.

In remote server's /etc/bashrc file, i just did comment out "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/..." this line.

As a result, no "scp" could be found in remote server, there is no scp command in PATH.

After remove the "#", now it is working.
