Setting the PATH Environment Variable

The directory /opt/softbench/bin must appear before the required /bin and /usr/bin and /usr/ccs/bin directory paths in each SoftBench user's PATH.

/usr/bin/X11 must also appear somewhere in the PATH.

Shell

Examples for Setting PATH

sh, ksh

Edit your $HOME/.profile, and locate the line that looks like this:

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH:.

Add the following SoftBench-related paths to the beginning of the list:

/opt/softbench/bin:/usr/bin/X11:

Your modified PATH would look something like:

PATH=/opt/softbench/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH:.

csh

Edit your $HOME/.login, and locate the line that looks like this:

set path=(/bin /usr/bin . )

Add the following SoftBench-related directory paths to the beginning of the path:

/opt/softbench/bin /usr/bin/X11

Your modified PATH would look something like:

set path=(/opt/softbench/bin /usr/bin/X11 /bin /usr/bin . )

 

Common Desktop Environment (CDE) does not automatically read your .profile or .login file (unless you have configured it to do so). Refer to $HOME/.dtprofile for more information.

You need to log out and log in before changes to the .profile or .login file become effective.
