[Solved] Apps in /home/user/bin won't run

As per subject.
To run such command I have to give full path of /home/user/bin/app because simple app is not being recognized.

Well, obviously "user" in the path is just replacement of my username, lets say the real location of my bins is /home/smith009/bin
I am not really sure what either of us suggested to do. Can you rephrase?
kazuo suggested you run
export PATH="/home/user/bin:$PATH"
and try again. Of course you need to change to the real path, e.g. /home/smith009/bin.
Lockheed suggested to change it to
export PATH="$PATH:/home/user/bin"

  • Multi User Mode Won't run Program

    I have Route 66 USA running with the windows gps device which came with the program. Originally I installed Route 66 as an administrator. Since then I have changed my account to a standard user and added an administrator account and a third user account.
    Route 66 only works with my original user account or any user I setup with administration status. It will not allow the program to run from a second standard user. Why? I don't need admininstration account to run it using the original user account.
    Apple Care will not help me figure out how to change the permissions and ownership to allow this second user to run the program because its 3rd party software even though I asked for help figuring out what the ownership/permissions stuff is all about or what they mean.

    1. It is possible to do this in the Finder, but will
    likely be more reliable and convenient to do it in
    the Terminal.
    2. You can run that command from any admin account on
    the machine, and it will have the same effect from
    any admin account.
    3. Not for a third-party application, as the receipt
    for that application inside /Library/Receipts isn't
    consulted if it exists at all.
    4. See here and <A

  • Is the new "messages" app working for your networked home users?

    I'm seeing a very odd issue where the new 10.8 "Messages" app not acting properly for users with a networked home directory.  If logging in on the server, the users' Message app works just fine.  When logging on from a client mounting their home directory over the network, the Messages app can send messages fine, but does not receive messages.  What is odd is that the app does get the signal that the person is responding to an outgoing message showing their avatar and "...", so something is being recieved, but no message ever shows up.
    Anyone else seeing this on client systems?
    Thanks,
    O

    I've got messages server running on Mountain Lion Server (fresh install) and both 10.7.4 and 10.8.0 clients are able to message each other, the 10.7.4 clients are network home users but I was forced to change the 10.8 user to a mobile home account because everytime they opened Mail all there contacts would get deleted.
    Assuming your client are on 10.8 you have probably found another network home bug, consider switching to mobile homes until it is fixed

  • Configuring apps on single user machines: /etc/ vs $HOME

    Hi all,
    As you know, many applications, such as Xpdf, can be configured via RC files stored either globally (usually in /etc) or locally (in /home/<user>/.*rc). Naturally, on multi-user machines, a user-specific configurations go in that user's home directory. But what about on single user machines? I'm just wondering whether there are any advantages or disadvantages to configuring your application preferences in /etc as opposed to in /home/<user>. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

    Personally, I always make changes to my own copy of the configuration in $HOME as opposed to /etc, that way if a new update comes out, I can first compare what changed between versions (example /etc/nanorc vs. /etc/nanorc.pacnew) and then see what I'd need to apply to my copy of the config, if anything.  I think it comes down to a matter of personal preference, but I like leaving the system-wide configuration found untouched so I can see what the defaults are.

  • [SOLVED]MPD, PulseAudio & Systemd/User

    Since the advent of skype 4.3 I've had to switch to using pulseaudio. Things seems to be working fine except for the interaction between pulseaudio and mpd. My goal is to attain the same functionality as I had before when I was just using alsa. The main problem seems to be that the mpd daemon starts before pulseaudio. This means that when I reboot, for example, my music doesn't automatically keep playing. However if I toggle mpc (or open ncmpcpp and unpause) then it works fine.
    What I have done
    1) I installed mpd using the script found on the wiki
    1a) copied ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf to /etc/mpd.conf and uncomment #user line so it runs as my user
    1b) enabled the mpd service with systemctl so it starts on boot, as directed to from 1)
    2) Applied the workaround detailed here to make pulseaudio play nice with mpd
    From what I can understand this results in the mpd daemon using the /etc/mpd.conf file which mirrors my local one (but I think the process is still started as root?)
    If I don't do 2) then I get a problem where if I try to open pavucontrol I get an error saying I'm unable to connect and the system feels very unresponsive. Two second delays navigating around in thunar for example.
    fuser /dev/snd/* outputs
    » sudo fuser /dev/snd/*
    /dev/snd/controlC0: 440
    /dev/snd/controlC1: 440
    /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: 440m
    » ps aux | grep 440
    quiv 440 1.2 0.1 495964 13248 ? Sl 15:16 0:05 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
    quiv 2259 0.0 0.0 11668 2296 pts/0 S+ 15:23 0:00 grep --color=auto 440
    For now I have added in
    if grep -q "state: pause" /home/quiv/.config/mpd/state; then
    mpc toggle
    fi
    to my ~/.xinitrc as a work around to get pulse and mpd to work together properly. However it doesn't seem to work all the time. If I leave my music playing then when I reboot the system with reboot it seems that somtimes the state is being saved as paused, and other times as play. I suppose I could just mpc toggle without checking, but I don't want a situation where if I happen to not be playing music that every time I reboot my music starts playing.
    Other things I have tried are;
    A) not using pulseaudio with mpd.
    B) not using systemd to manage mpd. Instead I manually started it in .xinitrc and pointed it to my ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf file. I believe this means it runs as my own user instead of as root. When I did this I commented the username line and also undid 2) from above in ~/.config/mpd/mpd.conf
    The problem with A) is that if I use alsa with mpd, mpd hogs my soundcard. My card becomes unselectable in pavucontrol and I cannot use it with pulseaudio., meanng no skype. The benefit of doing this (this is how I used to do it before I needed pulseaudio) is I have no problems with mpd's state being saved incorrectly.
    The problem with B) is the mpdstate is saved incorrectly when for example I issue reboot. I can reproduce this by changing my currently played song then rebooting. When I boot back up mpd resumes playback from the previous session instead of recognizing the last thing I was playing. I had a search around on the forums and I found this issue which seems to describe what is happening. There doesn't seem to be a solution there instead a suggestion to user systemd (which I would like to do!) instead to manage mpd. Rasi's post details a unit file but I'm unsure what to do with this.
    Looking at the wiki it seems like maybe I am supposed to provide this file so that it overwrites the default mpd.service unit. So I followed the steps listed there. First I created the directory /etc/systemd/system/mpd.d/ then made the user.conf file inside. I tried just putting the additional arguments in
    [Service]
    User=YOUR_USER
    PAMName=system-local-login
    I also remember trying to overwrite the entire [Service] section of the original by using
    [Service]
    User=YOUR_USER
    PAMName=system-local-login
    ExecStart=
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/mpd --no-daemon
    because I think just adding the addtional parameters might not have worked. But I'm not sure on this point, maybe both ways worked. This seemed to work but I had the same problem as above. The state was still being saved incorrectly sometimes when I rebooted. I would get a previous session instead of the most recent change. So I tried the other method for overwriting systemd unit files and made the file /etc/systemd/system/mpd.service in which I pasted Rasi's entire unit file. This also seemed to work, but still the incorrect state problem happened.
    At this point I didn't know what to try. It seemed like the only option left was to set up mpd using a local configuration and setting up a systemd/User session and managing it that way. The wiki indiciated that if I did it this way I would not have to use the method 2) above. However I was/still am hesistant about doing this. I'm new to arch and the systemd/User wiki page seems very intimidating. I worry that I will create problems that I won't understand how to solve using this method just for the chance that mpd will function correclty with pulse. However I seemed to have exhausted all my possible options so I thought whatever I'll try it anyway! I'm certain I probably haven't done it right however.
    So once again I turned to the wiki to help me with setting this up. However I can't make sense of the article. I don't know if I should follow ONLY the Setup since systemd 206 or if I should follow both setup sections? I decided to follow only the first section. I use no DE so I commented out the
    [[ -z $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]] && exec startx
    line in my ~/.zprofile. When I set up my system I followed the Automatic login to virtual console. I left this file alone, but upon second thoughts maybe I should have disabled this too? I don't understand if using xlogin-git to austoart Xorg, as described in the systemd/User page, requires me to get rid of this too. I think xlogin-git just starts Xorg so automatic login via getty should be fine?
    Immediately when I boot in using systemd to manage my session I notice that there are problems. I don't think my environment variables are being sourced from .zshenv because my panel fails to load. If I kill the panel and load it again it works. This makes me think there is something wrong with the order of units started with systemd.
    » sudo journalctl --this-boot --no-pager | grep -i panel ~
    Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 16: : No such file or directory
    Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 17: : No such file or directory
    Jul 05 16:25:39 lorelai bash[494]: /home/quiv/.config/bspwm/panel/panel: line 18: : No such file or directory
    In each instance panel is trying to do things based on $PANEL_FIFO which is exported from ~/.zshenv but it doesn't appear to be set at the time systemd starts things up. Apart from these problems, which are probably undoubtedly due to the fact I failed to set up systemd/User properly, I still have problems with mpd. The state seems to be remembered correctly now, however when I reboot I still have to toggle mpc for it to start playback. It seems to be the same problem as when I use setup detailed intially. I suspect perhaps once again there is something wrong with the order here. MPD starts before pulse so it doesn't find anything to play through, then once I issue the mpc toggle command pulse is started and all is happy.
    A final note is that I was getting this error yesterday when using systemd/User

    Also I have no idea if I'm even supposed to use it like this but
    » sudo systemctl --user enable mpd ~
    Failed to get D-Bus connection: Connection refused
    I tried this because I was wondering if mpd was even using the correct service when using systemd/User. I thought perhaps it just was using the one in /etc/systemd/system/ instead of /usr/lib/systemd/user/. I'm still not sure about this.
    In the end I've exhausted whatever I can think of. I'm sure I've done a lot of things wrong but I tried my best. Hopefully somebody knows what I've done wrong and can help me.

    Well shit. I guess I didn't need to do all that other stuff. I only wish I'd known about this before wasting most of my day. Thank you very much, everything appears to be working flawlessly now.

  • [SOLVED] "warning: could not find /bin/bash, starting /bin/sh instead"

    Hello all.
    I've just installed arch, despite very little knowledge of linux (i had ubuntu for a short while before this), but I like a challenge so i thought i'd throw myself in at the deep end.
    The installation went reasonably smoothly, but now i've got it up and running (with a minimal KDE install) but when I open up the konsole, I get the message
    "Warning: Could not find '/bin/bash/', starting '/bin/sh' instead. Please check your profile settings."
    and subsequently I cannot "su jake" (jake being my username, obviously). It requests my password, but when i press return I get the response
    su: /bin/bash/: Not a directory
    which means i've obviously done something wrong, but I cant make head nor tail of the archwiki on Bash, and from googling, I cant find anyone with a similar issue. I can run from root, but it's not ideal.
    Thanks for any response as to why this might be happening, and how to fix it.

  • ITunes, app store, iBooks store, etc won't load and I can't figure out why. I tried rebooting and it didn't help. Everything else works fine. Help please?

    iTunes, app store , iBooks store, etc won't load and I don't know why. Everything else works fine, and I've rebooted it. The problem is still there and I know I have a good Internet connection. Help please?

    Have you tried disconnecting and re-connecting to your network ?. And when you say rebooted do you mean a reset ? If not then try that : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    You could also try closing those apps completely. From the home screen (i.e. not with any of those apps 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes, App Store and iBooks apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • Remote App and Home sharing not working

    I've had no luck getting either the Remote app or Home Sharing working.  I've opened the correct ports, turned on sharing (both home sharing and under the Preferences -> Sharing tab), installed the newest version of iTunes, restarting the computer, iPhone, and router, and I'm still not seeing the iPhone appear under devices nor am I seeing home sharing as an option in the iPhone's iPod app.  Any idea?

    These cases often end up with the user having some Odd thirdparty firewall or virus scanner try to disable it

  • Time Machine does not backup home/user directory (on separate drive)

    I recently installed a SSD into my Mini. Due to size restrictions, my home/user directory has to be kept on another drive. I retained the stock 1TB drive that came with the Mini for this.
    Ok, installed the SSD, restored a Time Machine backups (sans user data). Used a different admin user and configured my user to use the 1TB drive for it's home directory (/Volumes/1TB/home/<user>). Restart, log in as my user, all is good. All data, settings, etc is there. Everything looks normal.
    Time Machine REFUSES to backup this directory. It will backup the 1TB drive and anyting else I create in it, but not the home directory. I tried every permission trick I could think of or found online. I even tested it further by formatting the 1TB drive fresh, adding a new user, configuring the user to use the 1TB for their home directory and it still won't back it up (this was a test of permissions the OS set, to make sure I didn't change my data perms somewhere along the way). Time Machine would not backup the new user's home directory on the 1TB drive.
    Any thoughts? I can't be the first person to have their home directory on a non-OS drive.
    If I were to create a folder/file in /Volumes/1TB/<test file> ... Time Machine gets it perfect. It just will NOT touch /Volumes/1TB/home/<anything here>
    Thanks!

    Open the Time Machine preference pane and unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Options button. If there is one particular folder with items that are not being backed up reliably, add it to the list of excluded items. If there are many such folders, add your home folder to the list, or add a whole volume (i.e., what Apple calls a "disk.") Save the changes.
    Start a backup, or wait for one to happen automatically. When it's done, open the preference pane again and remove the exclusion(s) you made earlier. Back up again and see whether there's a change.

  • Access to my Office 365 third-party app for external user : "a User account is not registered for the account"

    In my third-party web application of Office 365, I want to have access to the contacts, events and emails of all the users from the organizations who installed my app. The thing is I don't want that all these users have to grant me access, I just want one
    admin of the org to grant access for my app and then be able to retrieve the data I need for all the users.
    To test for one organization, I logged in as the admin and proceed to the Oauth2 authentication to retrieve the access token and in the first request (the GET one to retrieve an authorization code) i add the parameter
    prompt=admin_consent.
    With this access token, I can access the data (emails, contact, event) of the admin
    for instance for the contacts
    uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(adminemail)/Contacts
    but not the data of the other users of this org with this uri
    uri: https://outlook.office365.com/ews/odata/Users(useremail)/Contacts
    The only thing I can do is retrieve an access token for each user but it supposed that each user has to authorize the access to the app but it's very cumbersome. So, i don't see what enables the parameter prompt=admin_consent and how to use it. Does anybody
    know what it does?
    And my question is: how can I do to access the data of all the users of one organization when the access has been granted by one admin?
    Thank you!

    You are sending the OAuth request to a tenant specific endpoint of Azure AD. Note the {key_provided} part of your Url - that part represents the tenantid or a registered domain name of an Azure AD tenant. Azure AD throws this error is the user signing in
    is not a user in that tenant.
    Multi-tenant applications like yours have two options:
    Perform home realm discovery yourself and send the SSO request to the correct tenant-specific endpoint of Azure AD: when a new Azure AD organization signs-up for your application, record its tenant ID, and registered domain names. On your login page, ask
    the user for their email and try to discover what Org they belong to using the suffix the email.
    Use the common endpoint of Azure AD. Instead of the {key_provided} part of the URL, use 'common'. In this case Azure AD will determine the user's tenant and sign-in the user. The token that your application will receive will still be from the user's tenant
    (iss claim).
    2 is more convenient for apps. However #1 has an advantage when the user's Organization has customized their sign-in page with the company logo etc - in the case of #1 the user will directly be taken to the customized and familiar sign-in page.
    I recommend a combination of the two: try determining the user's organization and sending them to the tenant specific SSO endpoint. If you're not able to - send them to the common endpoint.

  • Install Air App for All Users

    Does air have an option to install the app across all users , not jus the current user?

    It would seem like that article ''should'' solve the problem, but it doesn't seem to have had any effect.

I ran firefox after copying the uncompressed files with an administrator account with no luck. Any thoughts?
