-bash: make: command not found

Help me please. I downloaded cdrecord because I need a tool called makeisofs but I am told that I need to compile it first before I can use it. The directions say to type "make" to compile it but when I type make in the terminal window, I get the following message:
-bash: make: command not found
I've spent hours looking all over the web for an explanation but I just can not find anything to help me. I even joined some IRC channels but no one types anything in those rooms. It is the weirdest thing.
Can anyone tell me why I can't compile? The directions I got with the download don't explain a thing.

I found something that might help. On the second Leopard DVD, there is something called Xcode Tools which I am told has what I need. I'll respond if I have any other questions. Thanks for reading.

Make: command not found?

Hi,
Just reinstalling Arch and trying to install my NIC drivers for my Motherboard.
Copied the drivers into /tmp/Lan
There is a Makefile in the directory...
When using make or KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 make i just receive the following answer:
-bash: make: command not found
It worked last time...have I missed installing something to be able to use the make function?

Install all of the group base-devel if you're going to be building stuff.
What package is that now so I can use pacman, think I got it localy stored in a cache...

-bash: sudo: command not found

     Hello all,
I have had WAY too many problems with this laptop, and at this point in its miserable little life, I've decided to just wipe the hard drive and start fresh, not caring at all what happens to the files left on there. As previously stated in one of my earlier questions (That was, might I add, never fully answered.), this late 2008 MacBook (aluminum) has a problem where it does not boot up, and just endlessly shows the gray spinning pinwheel. Four months later, that just stops, and now when trying to boot up with my normal startup disk, it brings me right to the Recovery disk and tries to reinstall OS X. I tried, it failed 5 minutes in. So I tried to wipe the hard drive, and it says: Disk Erase failed with the error: Couldn't unmount disk.   I looked it up and I saw that if I went into the Terminal and typed: sudo diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk0 , it would unmount the disk. But whenever I type that, it says: -bash: sudo: command not found. I have no idea how to fix this, and I would really like to be able to use my laptop again without giving somebody my money to do it for me.
                                             Thanks,
                                                  Luke

Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
         button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
         you will be running a fresh install of OS X. You can now begin the update process
         by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
         installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. You may then open App Store, click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar, and re-download any OS X upgrade you purchased except Mavericks. Since Yosemite has been released the App Store may not let you re-download Mavericks, but it will let you download Yosemite.

ORACLE_HOME disappeared, SQLPLUS - bash: sqlplus: command not found

OK, I am a newbie but am having real difficulty with my 10G DB which I had set up on Unix Solaris box but someone was messing around with it and now I can't see ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE and ORACLE_SID, they all return blank when I try to "echo" each.
I realise I should have originally set it in Bash_profile, but is now too late.
So how do I set them back up, I cannot get SQLPLUS / AS SYSDBA.........bash: sqlplus: command not found
I have tried to reset and export but still doesn't work.
I got the ORACLE_BASE as:
training:/export/home/training/product/10.2.0/Db_1:N
but can't seem to set the three variables to run SQLPLUS, any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Tried messing around to reset but nothing works, this is the present state of affairs:
env
SSH_TTY=/dev/pts/3
USER=training
ORACLE_SID=training
ORACLE_BASE=/oracle/app
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
PWD=/export/home/training/product/10.2.0/Db_1/bin
TZ=Eire
PS1=\e[33m\h\e[31m-\u-\e[33m\W/\e[31m-$\e[32m
SHLVL=3
HOME=/export/home/training
LOGNAME=training
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/app/product/10.2.0
Can someone help me, really need a step by step guide to set these back up properly.
Thanks

Bash: SQLPLUS: Command not found

Hi All,
I'm facing problem during connecting to SQLPLUS in Linux Plateform Redhat 4.....whenever I write SQLPLUS, it gives me the following Error message
Bash: Sqlplus: Command not found.
kindly let me know, how can I get rid of this Error. Thanks
Regards,
Imran

Your environmentals are not setup.
From the command prompt source oraenv
~> . oraenv
or (depending on your os )
~> source oraenv
Respond to the prompt with the name of your database exactly (uppercase/lowercase) as it is in the oratab file (/etc/oratab ?)
This will set your ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, and PATH variables correctly for your database.
Try sqlplus again and see if that does not work for you.

Type "purge" in Terminal and get: -bash: purge: command not found Is there another built-in command to clear memory leaks? want to clear memory periodically

I have 10.6.8. When I type "purge" in Terminal I get: -bash: purge: command not found Is there another built-in command to clear memory leaks? I have FreeMemory (works well) and considering FreeMemory Pro, to clear memory periodically, say every 20 minutes, or preferably when a threshold is reached, say when only 100MB is available.

To get purge to work you need to install Xcode from Optional Installs on the 10.6 install DVD. Also be sure you install CHUD Tools with it.
But running purge or anything like it is pointless if within a short period of time the VM just grows back again. Sounds like you need more RAM.
Where are the memory leaks? Just because the VM reaches a certain size doesn't necessarily mean it's from a memory leak.

-bash: gcc_select: command not found

HI

According to the manpage http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/Manpages/ 10.5/man1/powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1.1.html
In Apple's version of GCC, both cc and gcc are actually symbolic links to a compiler named like gcc-version; which compiler is linked to may be changed using the command gcc_select. Similarly, c++ and g++ are links to a compiler named like g++-version.
but unfortunaly I didn´t got the command on my system

System
Macbook5.1
Mac OS X 10.5.8

Welcome to Apple
NO MONEY get out of here

if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi

Hi All,
I am working to setup an OBI 11g VM image to my local system. The VM is a linux OS and my local m/c is Windows7. I am able to login to the VM using oracle/oracle. But the thing is, I am not able to start up my BI server over the VM.
I checked the status of opmnctl file present at: /home/oracle/obiee/instances/instance1/bin. But getting the message as "bash: opmnctl: command not found".
I did reboot the VM a few times as well. But, i am not sure can this be a problem? Please suggest what I did wrong and how can I resolve it.
Thanks.

Is opmn running?

It appears that you may not have a properly installed OS X system.
You must be connected to the Internet to reinstall OS X.
In the menu bar, choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
Select “Disk Utility,” and then click Continue.
Select your startup disk from the list on the left, and then Repair Disk.
After disk is repaired, select Reinstall OS X, then click Continue.
Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select a disk, select your current OS X disk

[Netconsole] bash: nc: command not found ?

I configured and loaded as root Netconsole module (its running) to watch a Plug computer boot on a PC with ArchLinux 3.5.4-1 installed, but when running nc command on the PC, bash gives error:
nc -u -l -p 6666
bash: nc: command not found
Any ideas? There is no nc file in /sbin dir or anywhere in FS.

Judging from http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.32/Docu … onsole.txt 'nc' means 'netcat', not 'netconsole'.
Install gnu-netcat and try again.
