11.31 PATH not getting setup from /etc/profile

[chindi · Accepted solution]

Hi guys ,

It turned out to be permissions issue of /etc/profile , it was 640.

I modified it to 444 , its fine now  ;-)

Please revert your modifications like

PATH=$PATH:`cat /etc/PATH`

otherwise you will see each entry twice.

This isn't a modification, there is an if-then-else to read from /etc/PATH.

You are right as always Dennis ...
