I already read the man pages in the past, and even the Advanced Bash
Scripting Guide (very good free book). I just not remembered a thing
like that.

I didn't read it a second, and a third time ^^. That was my error :)

Study it and study it well. bash does not do with it's startup files 
what you probably assume it does.


Read it, read it again, read it three times. Read and understand what is 
actually there.

From the man page:
When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash
reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists.

 Maybe you're missing '.bash_profile'. Look in /etc/skel/ for an
 example.

Because when you login, you're in a login shell (PS1 prepended with
"-") so ".bashrc" is sourced from ".bash_profile", ".bash_login", or
".profile" if you have one of them.

Whereas the subshell is an interactive, non-login shell, so ".bashrc"
is sourced directly.

Stupid Hogren… ls -a …

I will look.

Sorry.


Ok it works, thanks !

Can you explain to me why the ~/.bashrc is sourced in subshells without
.bash_profile ?

Thanks again !

Hogren,
	I've been playing around with .bash* stuff a bit due to setting up a 
Win based Linux like development environment for Uni students and, if 
I've understood your question correctly, these links might help. They 
outline what file is called in what context.

[gentoo-user] bashrc in console

[Hogren]

Hello,

Anybody knows why ~/.bashrc is not running on the first Bash opening ?


Steps to reproduce my problem:

- I boot up my machine (systemd)

- I have the login prompt

- I enter my login, then my password

- I am in Bash but ~/.bashrc is not sourced. Aliases, $PATH, and other
are not updated.

- I enter the command "bash" to enter in a subshell. Now I have my new
aliases, $PATH, etc. The ~/.bashrc is sourced.



I didn't find the good conf file.


Thank you for help !
