Environment Variables

Hi,
When i login with user id on hp-ux 11i v1 system. And when i use command env to check what are the Environment Variables settings it gives no output and also tried giving pwd command but still no output it displays.
What could be the problem not display the pwd and env output. It is working with other user on same system.

Re: Environment Variables

Narendra,

Check the contents of $HOME/.profile for the specified user.
After logged into the system :
run : $ echo $SHELL
Check the shell startup files also if any eg. .kshrd or .cshrc.

Re: Environment Variables

Re: Environment Variables

Hi

Check the below

1) What was the shell defined , when your userid was created, you can do either

grep -i /etc/passwd

If this does not work, Then contact the sysadmin

Thanks
