Unable to initialize a shell session under X11 for Mac OS 10.3.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For some unknown reason I have not been able to initialize a shell under X11 on Mac OS 10.3.5.

I've tried the following files:

.xinitrc, .cshrc, .login, .profile, .bash_profile, .bash_login, .tcshrc and none of them are read.

The shell being used is the bash shell. The contents of the above files is something like:

echo 'Im inside the xxx file'

What's odd is that on another Macintosh everything works fine and the X11 ends up using the .tcshrc file. On this one particular Macintosh it doesn't seem to be reading anything. Yet somehow, somewhere it is reading something that is initializing the path. It's not the /etc/profile file because although this initializes the path, the path I get from X11 is different as if there is some other "phantom" file I don't know about that it is reading.

Any help?
