Export path and edit bash


Hi, Im new on linux and in this forum too. so i hope learn a lot using linux, I use the centos 5.5 version, and i need help with a basic problem but I try different metods and i cant make to work, so this are my questions.

1) I install and configure subversion on a custom path from a tar file, for example /mydir/subversion, but i cant use the svn command like when I install from a yum or rmp, how can I export my /mydir/subversion/bin path to a bash for use always in every session?

2) I remove a yum installed subversion with yum remove subversion, but when a run the command show me the next error "-bash: /usr/bin/svn: No such file or directory", how can I edit the -bash file to remove that error?

3) I install red5 from the tar file too, how can I run automatic when my server start, because i have to use ./red5.sh& every time to turn on my computer, the same thing for apache server.

One more thing I only use the command line i dont have a graphical interface.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

1. You can edit (or create if it doesn't exist) .bash_profile and use:
Code:
export PATH=/mydir/subversion/bin:$PATH
2. With the above, the error should go away

3. Edit /etc/rc.local and add:
Code:
/full/path/to/red5/red5.sh &
Same for apache

Regards

If your problem has been solved, it's nice to mark it 'Solved' (using the thread tools) - and since the answer you got was so helpful, to also click the 'Did you find this post helpful? _Yes_' button on barhory's post
