'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
host1:daaadm 1> cd /sapmnt/PEP/logs
host1:daaadm 2> pwd
pwd: No such file or directory
host1:daaadm 3>
Any idea where I have to look.

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
What happens if you do an 'ls'?
What are the permissions on the directory?

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
What does 'whence -v pwd' show? It should return something like "pwd is a shell builtin".
The only way I was able to duplicate this was by:
cd'ing into a directory
remove that directory from another terminal
Execute /usr/bin/pwd rather than just 'pwd'.

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.

host1:daaadm 4> ls
host1:daaadm 5> ll
total 0
host1:daaadm 6>
What are the permissions on the directory?
drwxr-xr-x 2 pepadm sapsys 1024 Oct 20 2009 logs
Are you sure you are running the correct 'pwd' command?
host1:daaadm 14> which pwd
INSTANCEDIR_LIST: Undefined variable.
What does 'whence -v pwd' show? It should return something like "pwd is a shell builtin".
host1:daaadm 13> whence -v pwd
whence: Command not found.
daaadm is using csh
The only way I was able to duplicate this was by:
cd'ing into a directory
remove that directory from another terminal
Execute /usr/bin/pwd rather than just 'pwd'.
The directory is still exist.
host1:daaadm 15> /usr/bin/pwd
pwd: No such file or directory

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
pwd command is located in /usr/bin/pwd. Your output shows that there is no pwd in /usr/bin.
Can you run "which pwd" and see where is pwd located?
Is the pwd command working fine for other directories?
Regrds,
Muru

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
Can you post output of following command?
#echo $PATH
#more .profile of your current logged in user
#cd /usr/bin
#ll pw*

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
#type pwd
says
and find pwd it should be in /usr/bin/pwd
and one more thing is it happening on all directory or specific this directory.
check echo $PATH

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
host1:daaadm 5> type pwd
pwd is a shell builtin.
One more information, The /sapmnt/PEP is nfs filesystem which is exported from the same server. The original filesystem is /export/sapmnt/PEP. The pwd command is working fine if you go to the original filesystem.
host1:daaadm 2> cd /export/sapmnt/PEP/logs
host1:daaadm 3> pwd
/export/sapmnt/PEP/logs
host1:daaadm 4> cd /sapmnt/PEP/logs
host1:daaadm 5> pwd
pwd: No such file or directory
host1:daaadm 6>
as a root user the pwd command is working fine in the same directory.
Is it bug in HP UX 11.31???

Re: 'pwd' command not working in a particular directory.
#cd /sapmnt/PEP/logs

echo $PATH for this user.
