suse 9.0 java path for root
I would like to set up the java path for root and the rest of the users.
steps I've done. Success on randomx user but got nowhere for root: **I do have a valid java directory on user randomx home directory. I added this line export PATH=/home/randomx/jdk1.4/bin/:$PATH to ~/.bashrc to test it, I typed from shell $>java -version java version "1.4.2_01" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_01-b06) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_01-b06, mixed mode) Everything is beautiful. But I cannot get the same results for root even if I try to set it in /etc/profile --usually the global settings on any linux distro but SuSE. for root I get: #>java -version bash: java: command not found again, I just want to get java for root. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried the export PATH command for root, but it's a hassle to do that every time. I just want something that stays there for ever --like on root's or global profile. thanks in advance, Randomx |
/etc/bash.bashrc.local
There are several options for globally declaring environment variables.
I've had luck with creating a host-specific "/etc/bash.bashrc.local". If it exists (it won't, unless you create it), then it's read automatically by the standard shell init files. And it's probably poor form to modify those standard files directly (for example, your configuration might be blown away when you upgrade). Hope that helps .. PSM |
thanks bro
thanks man, I got it. I didn't know that trick.
