Bazaar

installing bazaar on Justhost, cannot set variables

Asked by Fabio

Hello,
I'm trying to install a bazaar repository on my JustHost shared hosting; i followed some tutorials which suggested to install bzr this way:

python setup.py install --home $HOME build_ext --allow-python-fallback

due to impossibility to use gcc; so I did it, and it seemed to install correctly. I suddenly defined variambles in .cshrc with lines

export MANPATH=$MANPATH:$HOME/man
export PYTHONPATH=$HOME/lib64/python

but i still get the "command not found error" everytimeI type bzr command; it seems something is wrong with path variables, but i cannot figure it out.
Any suggestion would be really appreciated,
thank you,

csh (are you really using plain csh?) uses a different syntax to set environment variables.

See http://www.tcsh.org/EnvironmentVariable

you want something like

  set MANPATH MANPATH:$HOME/man

etc

I tryed the other syntax too, variables seem to be set properly but it still doesnt find the command.... I need to go to /bin and execute as ./bzr to get it running...

Did you mean ~/bin instead /bin ?

What does 'bzr version' say ?

What does 'echo $SHELL' say ?

Is 'env' a command known to your shell ? What does it display ?

And above all, what kind of OS are you using there, are you sure you need to install manually instead of relying on the OS to install bzr for you ?

echo $SHELL returns:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/jailshell

./bin/bzr version says:

Bazaar (bzr) 2.3b4
  Python interpreter: /usr/bin/python 2.4.3
  Python standard library: /usr/lib64/python2.4
  Platform: Linux-2.6.35.7-grsec-x86_64-with-glibc2.2.5
  bzrlib: home/myusername/lib64/python/bzrlib
  Bazaar configuration: home/myusernameE/.bazaar
  Bazaar log file: home/myusername/.bzr.log

Yes, env is recognised by the shell and it returns:

I need to manually install because its a shared hosting and no compiling is allowed and it doesnt seem to be any package manager...

Hope this could help,
thank you,

OK, somehow system was not keeping the path variable.....now I re-edited bash profile file and it seems to work properly!
Thank you anyway!
