Alias error in bash_profile

Okay, explain this to me:
MyMacBook-Pro:~ me$ alias ls='ls -ltr'
MyMacBook-Pro:~ me$ ls
total 32
drwxr-xr-x+ 5 me staff 170 May 26 18:00 Sites
drwxr-xr-x+ 5 me staff 170 May 26 18:00 Public
drwx------+ 5 me staff 170 May 26 21:25 Documents
drwx------+ 4 me staff 136 May 26 22:04 Movies
[[etc]]
MyMacBook-Pro:~ jeffshrager$ more dotbashprofile
alias ls='ls -ltr'
MyMacBook-Pro:~ me$ source dotbashprofile
MyMacBook-Pro:~ me$ ls
ls: illegal option --
usage: ls [-ABCFGHLOPRSTUWabcdefghiklmnopqrstuwx1] [file ...]
So, how come this doesn't work from a sourced alias, but does from the shell. (And, no, it's not that it's doing it twice, as far as I can tell; I can do this in the other order and it's the same -- that is, source and then re-alias from the shell, and the first fails but the second works.)
Thanks,
'Jeff

This question is better asked in the Mac OS X Technologies > Unix Forum
<http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=735>
Where Unix interested users hang out.
MyMacBook-Pro:~ me$ ls
ls: illegal option --
usage: ls [-ABCFGHLOPRSTUWabcdefghiklmnopqrstuwx1] [file ...]
normally the illegal option -- is followed by the offending option, but yours is blank.
I'm wondering if your alias has a non-printing character. Maybe you could display the .bash_profile using
cat -vte .bash_profile
which should display all non-printable characters. I would expect your output to look like:
alias ls='ls -ltr'$
If there is additional stuff displayed, that might be the problem.

    Just off the top of my head, have you tried doubling up the backslashes?
    I have had problems getting an ASO alternate alias table loaded from MaxL at all (back in v9) but I didn't get the same error you do.

If you don't explicitly specify a name for the output column, Oracle will try to generate one based on the input expression. If the name does not follow the normal rules for identifiers (one of which is that the name can't contain special symbols, like parentheses) then the name must be enclosed in double-quotes.
    Notice that these rules are a little different from the rules about result sets. In the result set of a main query, for example, column names do not have to be unique, and a system-generated name like 'SUM(E.SALARY)" is acceptable.
    Actually the book hasnt specfied the need for an alias at this place ...so i wanted to know why am getting this error ..I can't see which book you're reading. Post a quote. If the book is available on line, post a link, too.

  • Financial Reports Location Alias error

    Has anyone encountered the following error?

    What does this mean and any suggestions on how to resolve? Cannot find any documentation on possible solutions.

    are you using multiple alias tables.
    If you are using then check whether you have specified it correctly in the grid property sheet.

  • "Cannot save alias" error message

    I am trying to create an alias and the message that pops up is "Cannot save alias." What does this mean?
    It doesn't say that the alias is unavailable. I've been getting this error message since I migrated from MobileMe, which was over 6 months ago. I only have 1 alias created so far, I haven't used up. Anyone have any ideas?

    @icloud.com addresses are being rolled out over an unspecified period: you will get one without having to do anything, and it will be additional to your @me.com address. You will get a notification email when your account is updated. You will notice that the alias creation pane shows @icloud.com as the suffix - apparently new @me.com addresses cannot be created and I imagine you will have to wait until your account is upgraded before you can create an alias.

  • Could not find IUIBaseCommand for alias Error

    Hi everyone,
    I developed a new UI Command in KM, but I get the following error in the "default trace":
    Could not find IUIBaseCommand for alias
    What does mean ?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Hassan

    Hi,
    most probably that means you are trying to use command (in some command group or so) which does not exist or is wrongly registered with different alias. It should be logged in the error message what is the alias it can not find.
    Best,

  • "No usable keyboard alias" error

    I am trying to install Solaris 10 on a machine with a Celeron 2.13GHz processor on an Intel 845G motherboard with 128MB RAM. This is one of the earlier releases of Solaris 10 and I have successfully installed it on a machine with a similar configuration earlier.
    This time around, it runs the configuration assistant, asks me to choose an installation mode, and then, regardless of the installation mode, gives me a message, "WARNING: No usable keyboard alias found". It then reboots the machine.
    I have read in some other posts that you can ignore the error, but in this case, the machine reboots and does the same thing everytime. I tried with an IBM RapidAccess USB keyboard and an Amigo PS/2 keyboard with the same results.
    Is it possible that the install CD has been corrupted? If yes, can I install off a CD image that resides on the hard disk? Also, where can I download the earlier releases of Solaris 10 from?

    hi,
    I have the same problem as well, right after installing i was able to use my keyboard and able to log on CDE but after first reboot lost my keyboard and unable to start x server...
    I am more concerned about keyboard at this time.
    any help
    Thanks

  • Unsupported alias error message when copying

    I wish to copy a full duplicate of my data files to an external HD. I did this already about 10 days ago. It copied fine. This time I keep getting the msg re ‘alias “x” cannot be copied to the destination perhaps because the destination does not support this type of alias.’ When you say ok it stops the copy so you have to locate the alias and delete it (or bypass it) and restart the copy from there. Because I’m working with thousands of photos, I have apparently many such aliases. It’s very annoying and extremely time consuming.
    In the intervening 10 days I upgraded from Panther to Tiger and I now remember that on a MacPro with Tiger I got the same msg when trying to copy files from the HD to an ext HD. What has changed?
    These aliases have sizes of 1.2mb - 2.4mb so I’m not even sure they ARE aliases (or are they displaying the size of the linked file?). Some when viewed in Photoshop you can open and save as a jpeg and they seem to turn into a jpeg in situ. Other times they still appear to be aliases (the icon for the aliases in browser Photoshop 7.0 is smaller than the jpeg icon). When I thought they were all aliases I trashed a load of them (without emptying) and was going to do various tests on them later but now I can’t copy them out of trash due to this unsupported type of alias msg. If they are real photos in the guise of aliases I’m not happy to lose them! Fortunately the duplicate data files from the first copy were still in the trash and they DID come out back onto the external HD, which I can’t quite understand.
    I’ve located a few mentions of this msg on various forums but more in a .dmg context and never with an answer.
    Thanks

    Results below: IMG_1560.JPG is an alias with a size of 2.4mb. It does open, in Preview, if I click on its icon. But a search locates only one file with 1560 in it, rather than one alias plus one original. I can't see anything here to explain it, but then I don't know what I'm looking for! Thanks.

    30/Jan/2004:12:19:26 +051800] conn=34 op=213 RESULT err=11 tag=101 nentries=0 etime=2 notes=U
    My search for Administrative limit problem and error opening file/URL error in Sun forum and other groups did get some hits but that did not solve my problem.
    I will appreciate any suggestion/comments.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Maneesh Bisht

    Thanks Jay.
    My problem has been fixed.
    Your suggestion was to increase the lookthrough limit. As you would have noticed in my posting that I had increased this limit to 6000 but that did not solve my problem. Today I increased this limit to 10000. And after that I did not get "administrative limit exceeded" error. Also I do not get "error opening file/URL reference by alias" error while sending E-mail to a particular group of 800+ ids.

  • WAS install error

    Hi-
    I recently tried to install WAS 6.40 (part of netweaver) and received the following error:

    Creation of .XUSER.62 failed.
    By the way, inet is an alias in my .bash_profile that sets some Internet configuration parameters for my wireless card.  It appears the SAP installation thought this was an "interface", whatever that is.
    I have NO IDEA how to fix this.  Any suggestions are welcome.  Also, how do I obtain points?  I noticed that I never get any help on here, and I think it may have something to do with that... I'm really new to Linux and SAP, so I can't offer much advice myself.
    thanks,
    Kevin

    Actually, I solved that problem.  I found the library, updated the path, removed my "inet" alias, and it installed correctly.  Now I can't get the GUI to work.  I am running Fedora Core 4 (kernel 2.6.11-1369_FC4)
    I am getting this error [running "gui" as "nw4adm"], which someone else on one of these SDN forums got earlier:
    JAVA=/usr/lib/java/bin/java: Command not found
    PH=/opt/sapgui/6.30rev4/jar: Command not found
    SOI=/opt/staroffice7/program/classes: Command not found
    JAVA: undefined variable
    The reply to this, posted by Rolf-Martin Woersinger, was:
    please do not use the SAPGUI for Java from that DVD. It comes with its own (unsupported) start script which causes several issues.
    Please use latest SAPGUI for Java available at http://service.sap.com/sapgui-java.
    So evidently the only functioning GUI for this “free” SAP eval is located on this password protected website!?  I do not dare to provide our SAP installation number [due to office politics] to obtain a password/login-- however, I can give you my word I'm a valid customer.  I need a SAPGUI that will work with the free DVD for Netweaver 6.4.  Can you give me a valid login and password that will work with that link?  Or is a valid GUI located elsewhere on the web?  email it to [email protected] if you can.
    thanks-
    Kevin

  • Alias could not be opened because original was not found

    I recently had to re-format my HD due to error with the face, all was running fine until today. I had backed up all my files to my external hard drive prior to the HD crash. Photos and Itunes. Problem is today my i photo library was gone as well as my itunes music. When i tried to restore the folder I could not open my files that are .jpg saved on my external drive. I did the shift+option key when starting I photo to recreate the folder, but I still can't open my files in the external drive. Obtained the error "Alias .jpg could not be opened because the original could not be found". Are these pictures now lost forever? I can see the .jpg on my external drive. I click on it and it ask me to fix, and choose , but everything is grayed out. Also now my computer doesn't recognize my ipod to sync since the itunes library has been changed or something. the folder was there , but non of my music. My music is available in the external drive, but It 's not the latest backup. Please someone help. I didn't move anything so I'm not sure what happened.

    Hi Ray,
    Thank you for responding. I am really hoping I can get my photos at least back. Here is what I did. I thought I was being smart by backup up my folders which contained my photos and music to my external hard drive, however I must not understand how mac does this. I dragged and dropped both my itunes folder and iphotos folder to my external hard drive and checked to see if they were there. I though great all looked great. About a month later my mac got a error which indicated my hd crashed so I reformatted my drive and reloaded everything and then I recently noticed that my music and I photos folder were gone, empty. I'm not sure what happened.
    When I tried to restore the folder I could not open my files that are .jpg saved on my external drive. I did the shift+option key when starting I photo to recreate the folder, but I still can't open my files in the external drive. Obtained the error "Alias .jpg could not be opened because the original could not be found". Are these pictures now lost forever? I can see the .jpg on my external drive. I click on it and it ask me to fix, and choose , but everything is grayed out. Also now my computer doesn't recognize my ipod to sync since the itunes library has been changed or something. The folder was there , but non of my music. My music is available in the external drive, but It 's not the latest backup. Please someone help. I didn't move anything so I'm not sure what happened. Perhaps I got a virus or a hack stole all my music and photos. I don't know this is the wierdest thing. I guess what I need to know is are all my photos gone forever now?
    I tried to import , not sure if I attempted correctly. Can you assist or walk me through?
    I can see the .jpg on my external drive I just can't open them without getting the alias error.

  • Search results in Finder - alias issues ("can't be opened because ..." )

    Hello,
    I have read the topic "The alias can't be opened because the original item can't be found" connected to external hard drives. I also get such message, but the problem is connected to the Finder's Search function. There is no problem to find items (files and folders) through Search in Finder, but when I want to open the searched item, usually a folder, I got this alias error message. Nevertheless, I have no problem to open the item although this message pops up. I am not sure whether this is due to the recent update. A week ago, I got a new logical board (motherboard). Maybe the alias error message is because of the new logical board? Can the problem be solved?
    Kind regards,
    Aleksandar

    It's a bug. See this thread for a bit more detail about it:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2175779&tstart=135
    The solution will have to come from Apple. Be sure to use the link in the above thread to report that you are having this problem too.
