Re: [Modules] How to check whether initrc has been read successfully?

[Hiweed M. <hiw...@ho...>]

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.


I flow the steps according to the URL https://modules.readthedocs.io/en/latest/INSTALL.html

./configure --prefix=$HOME/INSTALL/Modules --with-tcl=$HOME/INSTALL/tcl/latest/lib/

Just now, I re-try to create the link under /etc/profile.d/ and remove the $HOME/INSTALL/Modules/init/bash in ~/.bashrc , then re-boot the system.

      lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root    40 Jan 10 06:47 modules.csh -> /home/u/INSTALL/Modules/init/profile.csh
      lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root    39 Jan 10 06:47 modules.sh -> /home/u/INSTALL/Modules/init/profile.sh

If I open the default terminal under the Ubuntu machine, it says 'module : command not found' when run 'module list'.
But if I login via ssh-client from windows to ubuntu, both 'module list' and 'module avail' works as expected.

I look into the file /etc/profile.d/modules.sh, it firstly checks the shell type and  then , run ~/INSTALL/Modules/init/bash or sh.

Finally, I just remove links /etc/profile.d/modules.sh and /etc/profile.d/modules.csh. And put $HOME/INSTALL/Modules/init/bash in ~/.bashrc. Everything works well under local terminal of Ubuntu machine or login via ssh.

I think the root-cause is about whether source INSTALL/Modules/init/bash takes effect.

Still needs further analysis about why the links under /etc/profile.d/ does not work.


Thanks,
BR/HM

Hey there,
did yo create the link under /etc/profile.d/ ???

like:

        ln -s /usr/local/Modules/Release_5/5.2.0/init/profile.csh modules.csh

ln -s /usr/local/Modules/Release_5/5.2.0/init/profile.sh modules.sh

Did you can run „ml avail“ ? If yes, can you share your „initrc“ please?
AND last question: With which „configure“ - statement did you compile it?

Bes regards


Z. Matthias

Hi there,

I build modules and install to $HOME/INSTALL/Modules
And I add some 'module add' commands in $HOME/INSTALL/Modules/etc/initrc, but it seems that commands in initrc does not take effect

Just wonder how can I check if initrc take effect?

Thanks,
