Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

hm...could you check your $PATH whether you included /bin, /usr/bin, /sbin ?

further, have you checked the accessability of other commands in the same path? can you try to run these skripts/programms using the full path?

Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

What if you type the full path to those binaries? Perhaps your PATH env variable is messed up?

I don`t understand why it`s usr/local/bin. As you can see i have listed all config files, but i didn`t find it.

Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

to find the current path use echo $PATH.
remove the PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin"
export PATH, part from .bash_profile (get sourced from /etc/profile)

Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

Perhaps one of the scripts in /etc/profile.d is borking your PATH

Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

You can see from your very first output that /sbin is not included in your $PATH, now we just need to find out why.

I can't really work out what's goin on in your posts, too much information and it's not in [ code ] tags.  If you don't mind please edit it down to just the output of the following:

grep PATH /etc/profile.d/*

and place that output in [ code ] tags this time.  I'd also get rid of .bash_profile for now, it's obviously not doing anything.

Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED] Problems with basical commands.

default_path        /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin

there's the problem!

comment that out (or if slim requires it, put the proper path)
