Hi. I'm a newbie in debian, and almost everything that i used to do in Mandrake now doesn't work in debian. I understand i'm doing something in the wrong way.This is something like newbie to newbie: I had the same problem while ago and the solution was:
I need to configure in my account some extra entries in the PATH variable. I configure my .bash_profile and it looks like this:
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$ANT_HOME/bin:/usr/local/pgsql/bin:/usr/local/eclipse
but the only thing i get in bash is:
bash-2.05b$ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
which is the PATH configured in /etc/profile.
Identically, there are some enviroment variables defined in /etc/profile which i can't get from my user, I can get them only from root. Example:
(from my user) bash-2.05b$ echo $JAVA_HOME
bash-2.05b$
(from root) bash-2.05b$ su - Password: localhost:~# echo $JAVA_HOME /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_03 localhost:~#
Can anyone please give a hand with this? I presume it should senseless... Thank in advanced!
