hello, trying to get a fileserver up and running although when i do "yum install quota" it doesn't seem to install. do i need to install the quota package? if so where? i thought i installed the quota package by going to applications->add/remove software it even says that the i386 package is installed. any help would be appreciated thank you. note my errors below when i try to run quotacheck -avugm and quotaon -avug. i am in super user mode too. Brian [kyd@localhost ~]$ su Password: [root@localhost kyd]# yum install quota Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories core [1/3] extras [2/3] updates [3/3] Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Nothing to do [root@localhost kyd]# touch /aquota.user /aquota.group [root@localhost kyd]# chmod 600 /aquota.* [root@localhost kyd]# mount -o remount / [root@localhost kyd]# quotacheck -avugm bash: quotacheck: command not found [root@localhost kyd]# quotaon -avug bash: quotaon: command not found [root@localhost kyd]#
quota is already installed. What's the output of Code: updatedb locate quotacheck locate quotaon ? What's the output of Code: echo $PATH ?
umm Hello Falko, here is the output you requested. how do you uncompress the .gz file? is it just tar -xvvzf quotacheck.8.gz? do i have to be in that directory? [root@localhost kyd]# updatedb [root@localhost kyd]# locate quotacheck /sbin/quotacheck /usr/share/man/man8/quotacheck.8.gz [root@localhost kyd]# locate quotaon /sbin/quotaon /usr/share/man/man8/quotaon.8.gz [root@localhost kyd]# echo $PATH /usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/kyd/bin [root@localhost kyd]#
Don't uncompress it, it's just the man page. quotacheck and quotaon exist on your system, they are in /sbin, but /sbin is not in your PATH. What's in /etc/profiles?
Hello Falko, thanks for the help. below is the output you requested of etc/profile i also found a profile.d directory did you want the contents of that as well? # /etc/profile # System wide environment and startup programs, for login setup # Functions and aliases go in /etc/bashrc pathmunge () { if ! echo $PATH | /bin/egrep -q "(^|$1($|" ; then if [ "$2" = "after" ] ; then PATH=$PATH:$1 else PATH=$1:$PATH fi fi } # ksh workaround if [ -z "$EUID" -a -x /usr/bin/id ]; then EUID=`id -u` UID=`id -ru` fi # Path manipulation if [ "$EUID" = "0" ]; then pathmunge /sbin pathmunge /usr/sbin pathmunge /usr/local/sbin fi # No core files by default ulimit -S -c 0 > /dev/null 2>&1 if [ -x /usr/bin/id ]; then USER="`id -un`" LOGNAME=$USER MAIL="/var/spool/mail/$USER" fi HOSTNAME=`/bin/hostname` HISTSIZE=1000 if [ -z "$INPUTRC" -a ! -f "$HOME/.inputrc" ]; then INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc fi export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh ; do if [ -r "$i" ]; then . $i fi done unset i unset pathmunge
Change Code: export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC to Code: PATH=${PATH}:/sbin export PATH USER LOGNAME MAIL HOSTNAME HISTSIZE INPUTRC in /etc/profile. The log out and log in again, and Code: which quotacheck and Code: which quotaon should show results.
no dice hello Falko, thanx for the help. still getting "command not found" [root@localhost etc]# which quotacheck /usr/bin/which: no quotacheck in (/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/kyd/bin) [root@localhost etc]# which quotaon /usr/bin/which: no quotaon in (/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/kyd/bin) [root@localhost etc]# touch /aquota.user /aquota.group [root@localhost etc]# chmod 600 /aquota.* [root@localhost etc]# mount -o remount / [root@localhost etc]# quotacheck -avugm bash: quotacheck: command not found [root@localhost etc]# quotaon -avug bash: quotaon: command not found [root@localhost etc]#
