However when I then log in to the recovered system as a user via

execute the instructions in the user's .bashrc file and I get a
shell prompt with none of the required environmental variables set
- also the last line in the .bashrc is an exec of a script that
bring up the application - this does not happen.
When I log in to the gui desktop as the user and then open a
terminal screen the instructions in the .bashrc do get executed
and the application runs as it should.
Any ideas of where to look ?
For starters, add some echo statements to the beginning of
the .bashrc file to ensure that it is being executed. Maybe an
error is occurring when it is a login shell. I usually debug startup
problems like this by putting an exit call half way through
the .bashrc file and add some echo statements.
