Unable to Work with new user login

I am new to sun admin.

Recently i created the user Oracle and from then on if i login as Oracle user and type any command it says not found. The only command i can type to get result is pwd.

I am trying this in Sun Ultra20 workstation.

Can any one say where i did wrong?

thanks for your time!

Hello.

"set" should work, too.

Try to type the full command e.g. "/usr/bin/ls" instead of "ls".

Perhaps it is just the "PATH" environment variable which is not set correctly.

If this is the reason create a $HOME/.profile file or edit if it already exists and add the correct PATH.

Hi Martin,

You are right it works if i give the path along with command. you see every time i cannot type the full path.

Could you brief me how to set the path as i have added /usr/bin in the PATH of user .profile and still i get the same error:

$ls -ltra

/usr/bin/ksh: ls: not found

Also is that due to /usr/bin/ksh added in the .profile

My .profile

/usr/bin/ksh

ORACLE_HOME= /export/oracle/product/920

ORACLE_BASE= /export/oracle

PATH=/export/oracle/product/920/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/openwin/bin :/usr/bin:/etc:

DISPLAY=198.77.88.4:0.0
