Bash: $'\302\211cat': command not found
Fresh Arch install.
I tried running some commands in startx xterm (e.g., cat, vim), but got this error message:
[user@machine ~]$ cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
bash: $'\302\211cat': command not found
How can I fix this?
wpa_supplicant.conf exists.

A bad PS1 should not create such issues. A bad PS1 can create very odd visual artifacts, but the shell will still get the proper input.
I'm guessing the whole command was copied/pasted from somewhere else (eg a website). Rather than just copying the text, if some formatting was copied, it could easily create such an issue.
If this were due to a PS1 issue, the OP would get such errors with every single command entered in a terminal.

For the past several days I've been getting the following error frequently on the command line:
bash: $'\302\240grep': command not found
I think I'm only getting this error in response to commands that are piped to grep, such as the following:
$ ps -ef | grep xyz
or
$ locate | grep abc
However, I don't think I've gotten the error if I type the same commands as above, but without the space between '|' and 'grep'. And, although the error is frequent, it doesn't happen every time; it is seemingly random.
Anybody else experiencing this? Any idea what might be causing it?
I'm using rxvt-unicode as my terminal.

[SOLVED] Make Bash Completion Error (Command Not Found)
When attempting to tab complete the `make` command, I am met with the following when I hit tab:
$ make s[tab]bash: 23:set: command not found
Strangely, if I continue hitting tab, it seems to work eventually, but with the same error popping up:
$ make s[tab]bash: 23:set: command not found
ched.[tab]bash: 23:set: command not found
[tab]bash: 23:set: command not found
sched.1.gz sched.tar.gz
$ make sched.
I've never seen anything like this. I've tried reinstalling bash completion and make to no success. The Makefile itself is fine and functional. Other programs' bash completions seem to work just fine. Help!
Last edited by goakley (2014-03-23 13:56:50)It seems the problem no longer occurs. The only change that seems to have happened is a bash-completion upgrade that happened yesterday. I'm a bit disappointed to have not found the actual issue.

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.

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,
ImranYour 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. -

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. -

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.

-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.

please check if all these settings are correct and help me how to start sqlplus? or create a database with dbca
I followed all the directions in Doc ID: 339510.1.
During installation i choose this path as the ORACLE_HOME
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/
I did not however installed the default database.
I then ran the two scripts at the end of the installation as root.
Here are my settings:
