I have the following PATH variable in /etc/profile. The last line should allow me to use the conda
command for any user.
# /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for the Bourne shell (sh(1))
# and Bourne compatible shells (bash(1), ksh(1), ash(1), ...).
if [ "${PS1-}" ]; then
if [ "${BASH-}" ] && [ "$BASH" != "/bin/sh" ]; then
# The file bash.bashrc already sets the default PS1.
# PS1='\h:\w\$ '
if [ -f /etc/bash.bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bash.bashrc
fi
else
if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ]; then
PS1='# '
else
PS1='$ '
fi
fi
fi
if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then
for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do
if [ -r $i ]; then
. $i
fi
done
unset i
fi
export PATH=/opt/miniconda3/bin:$PATH
It works when I'm root :
root@server:~# echo $PATH
/opt/miniconda3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin
But when I do su user
to become user
:
user@server:/root$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
/opt/miniconda3/bin:
doesn't appear in $PATH variables as you can see. Shouldn't variables defined in /etc/profile be available system-wide ? How can I get it so ?
user
? did you use a command to switch fromroot
? if so, please edit your question to include it.
