Re: Funny $PATH issues in PASE

This was an odd one.

If someone from IBM sees this post, all I did was move the Zend/PHP
directories to the end of my $PATH the issue went away. Oddly enough, none
of the commands affected were in those directories. Strange.

Trying to install the RPM package manager by following the instructions

this

is me just not understanding how the Unix/AIX $PATH works.

Here is my $PATH. I modify it with a .profile file to add PHP paths. By
the say, all of this is being ran from a PASE (QP2TERM) prompt.

/usr/local/zendsvr/bin:/usr/local/zendsvr/share/ZendFramework/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/QOpenSys/usr/bin/X11:/usr/sbin:.:/usr/bin
