edit : I ended up upgrading to macOS Catalina yesterday and replacing bash with zsh. One thing that should be noted is that the stackcommand worked previously, but despite all the tinkering not ghci
After deleting all the files that had anything to do with Haskell, I retried running curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://get-ghcup.haskell.org | sh
This second time there was an error with the command line tools so I had to install them manually with xcode-select --install. After rerunning the curl, I added the path to the environmental file to my zsh profile manually with :
. "$HOME/.ghcup/env"\
echo '. $HOME/.ghcup/env' >> "$HOME/.zshrc"
Here is the content of the env file :export PATH="$HOME/.cabal/bin:/Users/agnel/.ghcup/bin:$PATH"
Now everything seems to be working (I never reinstalled stack, but I think I might leave that to the side while I learn the basics of the language).
I installed the Haskell Platform yesterday but am having a hard time getting it to work correctly.
The firsts steps I did are:
curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://get-ghcup.haskell.org | sh
On step 1. the instructions said to append /Users/.../.local/bin the PATH variable (which I did in /etc/paths. On step 2, the script was supposed to pop up a dialog box (and didn't) when installing the necessary command line tools. It also said to rerun the script once complete (which I did). The script also said I should adjust my PATH variable, and source /Users/.../.ghcup/env in my shell configuration. It asked to this automatically but failed having not found the ~/.bashrc File. (I read that on Mac in contrary to linux, only .bash_profile is loaded upon opening of a terminal window so I adjusted the path variable there manually. I've spent forever messing around with the path variables and every time I try and run "$ ghci" I get the same -bash: ghci: command not found error message. If anyone has a solution to this problem I would be very grateful for an answer. If not, could someone with a working distribution of Haskell on their computer show me what their path variables look like?
Thanks!
A simple solution would just be to restart your terminal and you are good to go.
After installing the Haskell platform for the first time on a new mac with Catalina, I also got
~> ghci
zsh: command not found: ghci
What worked in my case was to use, instead of the plain ghci,
stack ghci
To get back the familiar behaviour, I created in my homedirectory a file named .zshrc containing
alias ghci='stack ghci'
If you open a new terminal, this file will automatically be executed.
I'd be interested to know if there is another solution.
Check if the ghcup command is working or not.
If not, make sure the .zshrc file has command for execution of ghcup. It should look something like this -
[ -f "/Users/myusername/.ghcup/env" ] && source "/Users/myusername/.ghcup/env" # ghcup-env
If the file exists, simply restarting terminal will work.
If it is still not working, set GHC as default using ghcup - follow this

I am trying to refresh my aliases on my Mac (OS Catalina 10.15.6) after defining new aliases in my .bash_profile file with the command:
source ~/.bash_profile
But terminal keeps giving this error message:-bash: s: command not found
This is confusing because for the longest time this command worked. I even had it included in my .bash_profile file as an alias, where it worked fine.
I'm aware the problem could have to do it with an error in my PATH but I've never made any edits to my PATH so have no idea what the issue could be?
Thanks in advance.
My first instinct would be to check both ~/.bashrc, and /etc/bashrc if it exists. That is where I customarily define aliases, and it looks to me as though a bad alias may be your problem.
I'm not saying it was the one you made, although it might be. Just go through your rc and profile files and look for any aliases which might in any way clash with source.
I suspect the source command is working just fine and the problem is a bad line in the ~/.bash_profile itself that looks like it's trying to run a command named s. I would look in there for the problem.
It might help to run it with xtrace on via bash -x ~/.bash_profile – running it in a separate process like that won't have any of the presumably-desired side effects of sourceing it in your current shell, but you can see what it's trying to do so that you can fix it.
(You can also just set -x before the source and get both xtrace and running in the current shell; just be sure to set +x afterwards or your shell session will be full of debug output.)
I was previously on Mojave but was forced to update because of XCode.
When it finished installing, I had to change the default Login Shell, because Catalina now uses Z Shell.
After I did that, my CLI still looks and acts very different:
BEFORE:
This is what it currently looks like:
AFTER:
I googled' line 33: __rvm_read_lines _hooks_list <(' and was advised to run: source ~/.bashrc. Nothing changed, until I ran source ./bash_profile and it started to somewhat feel better, but it still not performing commands properly. There is always some error.
Lastly, why do I have to run source ~/.bash_profile every time? I just want this to be back to normal.
After the upgrade, my CLI actually gave me this message:
The default interactive shell is now zsh.
To update your account to use zsh, please run chsh -s /bin/zsh.
For more details, please visit https://support.apple.com/kb/HT208050.
Foolishly, I ran that command, hoping it would go away.
It was fixed by switching back to chsh -s /bin/bash not sh.
Recently I installed Zshell instead of Bash. During this, then I saw that my $PATH was 7 miles long, - so I decided to try and clean it up a bit. When I uninstalled rvm (by running rvm implode followed by rm -rf ~/.rvm) then when I restarted my terminal, I now see an error:
If I just press ENTER, then the error remains. But if I do any other command, then it disappears (ls, echo, source ~/.zshrc - you name it).
If I reboot iTerm (or start a new tab), - then the error re-appears.
The error is not being showed, - so if I activate another theme, then I can't see if there is an error.
My gut feeling tells me, that it has something to do with my path, but I'm not sure. My path is waaay shorter than before RVM was installed.
If i rename my ~/.zshrc-file, then the Powerline9k-theme gets deactivated, so I can't see if the error actually still appears or not. But I have tried it... Then a theme-less zshell just start up.
Any idea how to fix it or how to debug it?
EDIT
I just realized that it could actually have been a left-over-error, from back when I was running bash, - so I added that tag as well.
If the visual blemish disappears as soon as you execute any command as you say so, just place an echo -n at the end of your .zshrc as a quick and easy fix, if you are not up to the task of debugging and potentially causing more problems on your machine.
The issue isn't worth your time ;)
Edit: Apparently the above didn't work. See comments.
If you are interested in debugging, a good starting point would be to place set -xe (print every line that is executing and abort on any line that exits nonzero) at the beginning (after the shebang line, or as flags in the shebang) of each configuration script that is executed when you start a new interactive shell.
Also consider set -xeuo pipefail to additionally catch and abort on usage of unset shell variables and commands that return nonzero inside pipes (e.g. set -e will not abort on false | true because the overall line exited with status 0, but -o pipefail will abort on such a line). It is worth noting that these flags are bash features, but since zsh is a feature superset of bash, they work in zsh too.
Have look at their documentation on github, relevant fragment is here.
Solution:
In your ~/.zshrc find variable called POWERLEVEL9K_LEFT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS and remove rbenv.
Explanation:
The default value of POWERLEVEL9K_LEFT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS is (context dir rbenv vcs), and it is likely that rbenv is the segment producing the error - after you uninstalled rvm that segment can't execute.
Uninstall all apps that use the path and reinstall. It's the only way. Instead of rm, you use should create an alias that has a trash can.
Whenever I start up Terminal on my Macbook Air, I get this message:
-bash: ≈: command not found
How do I fix this error? I'm running Mavericks version 10.9.4 if that helps at all.
EDIT: Fixed this error by using the bash -x method, found out it was a random '≈' character left in ~/.profile that needed to be deleted. Thanks for the answers :)
To debug you can try this:
bash -x -l
(the -l might not be needed).
I definitely agree with Barmar, there is something in your bash startup scripts.
There is not a great way to do this, but here is the protocol to remedy it.
Confirm it is your bash profile by first killing the process with a control + C if it is hung. Then do a source ~/.bash_profile and see if you get that same error.
Backup your bash profile cp ~/.bash_profile bashprofile.txt
Then comment out part of your bash profile. With text wrangler you can do a command + slash.
Save, then do a source ~/.bash_profile and see if the error still prints.
Repeat with different areas of the script until you have isolated the infected region.
I don't know what has happened, but in my Terminal on Mac OSX 10.5 it can no longer find my sudo command, or find command, etc. They are there because if I put /usr/bin/sudo or /usr/bin/find it works fine...
My .bash_login file looks like this:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin$PATH"
My .bash_profile file looks like this:
export PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/django_trunk/django/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin/sudo$PATH"
I'll say now, I don't really know what I'm doing with the Terminal. I'm just a beginner to it all, and I must of done something for the environment variables (is that what they're called?) to be lost. I presumed I'd just have to make sure the /usr/bin/ path is in my bash files, but they are, and it doesn't seem to work. Please help!
Also, when I do use the /usr/bin/find command, it says "Permission denied" to me, even though I am logged into Mac OSX as the System Administrator account. I don't understand.
Any help would be grand. Thank you - James
It looks like both of your PATH exports are malformed:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin$PATH"
The end bit there won't work. It should be:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH
Notice the colon before '$PATH'? It's important ;)
Also, the double quotes are not necessary.
If this doesn't work, we will need more information. It is possible that something else is modifying your path even after your shell configurations are loaded.
Can you post the results of:
$ echo $PATH
Configuration files are not always a good indication of the current environment variables, since they are modified by many programs and files, all across your system. To see all of your environment variables, you can run:
$ env
This should fix the problem completely and permanently.
first, export environment paths by using below command in the terminal.
export PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
now you have the commands you want. (eg. try ls. You'll see the command is working). But this is only for the current session. If you close the terminal and open a new one, you will have the previous issue. To make this change permanent, use below command,
go to home directory
cd ~
open .bash_profile file in nano / vim (I'm using nano here)
nano .bash_profile
This will open up nano editor. In a new line, paste the following;
export PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:$PATH
press 'control'+'o' to save (WriteOut) and 'control'+'x' to exit nano.
All done ! Now try the commands.

I went trough the same issue and here is how I solved it.
First of all I reverted the file to its original doing this way
/usr/bin/nano ~/.bash_profile
In my case I was not able to make work any command alias. Even vi or vim didnt work without specifying the full path of that command.
If nano is not installed just replace nano in the command by the editor installed
After that just restart the computer. In my case as I said bellow I could not use any command. When trying to do /usr/bin/source ~/.bash_profile
that command failed. So I had to restart the OS and it worked
