I add new entry in /etc/profile.(see below) #add java variable JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jre1.6.0_01 export JAVA_HOME
#add JAVA_HOME to the PATH PATH="${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH}" export PATH I thought these new entries would be effective after I reopen a new terminal window. But it did not. I have to manually do source /etc/profile to see the new changes after I open a new terminal window everytime. Even a reboot does not help. Does anyone have any idea ?
