[SOLVED] .bashrc isn't processed.

Hi folks.

I don't know why but my bashrc stopped beeing processed at terminal starting. I discovered this because when I ran alias I had none of those written on my .bashrc
I've been fussing on profiles and stuff but didn't managed to get it working myself.

Any ideias?
Thanks

Re: [SOLVED] .bashrc isn't processed.

If bash is interactive and a login shell, then ~/.bash_profile is read.

If it is interactive and not a login shell, then ~/.bashrc is read.

So put source ~/.bashrc in ~/.bash_profile to make sure it is always processed.

Thanks! It's solved. I put everything on .bashrc and .bash_profile sources .bashrc.

If your ~/.bash_profile does nothing but source ~/.bashrc, you could do as phrakture mentions in this post and simply symlink ~/.bash_profile to ~/.bashrc.
