[Gate-users] Root installation

[David Boersma]

Hi Fatemeh,

The .bashrc is read when you start a new bash shell, e.g. when you 
login. So could you start a fresh new shell and try again? Or logout and 
login?

If that does not help: I have heard that on some distributions have 
changed the bash initialization to no longer "source" the 
.bashrc/.bash_profile scripts anymore, for reasons that I do not 
understand. So if after a fresh login it still does not work, maybe you 
are on such a system. In that case you could try running the "source" 
line directly in the terminal, and in that same window you then try to 
run ROOT. Note that if you have several tabs/windows open, running 
"source /path/to/some/foobar.sh" will only affect the shell environment 
in the tab in which you actually run that source command, it does *not* 
change the environment of other tabs. That is on purpose, for very good 
reasons.

Good luck,
David Boersma
