Verify the root User Path

Verify the path for the system root user. The path must be configured correctly for the STA installation.

  1. Open a terminal session on the STA server and log in as the system root user.
  2. Display the PATH variable and verify that it includes all the following directories:
    • /bin
    • /sbin
    • /usr/bin
    • /usr/sbin

    For example:

    # echo $PATH
    /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
    
  3. If any directories are missing, use a text editor to open the user profile and add them. For example:
    # vi /root/.bash_profile
    PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
    

    Save and exit the file.

  4. Log out and log in as the system root user.
  5. Confirm that the PATH variable has been updated correctly.
    # echo $PATH
    /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
