I am sure this is a configuration issue, but I cannot find what is wrong. I have zsh and oh-my-zsh installed on my new Mac view homebrew.
When I start terminal it doesn't load zhs theme or autocomplete unless I run zsh command to start it. After that all works fine.
However, all the aliases I setup in .zshrc file works fine without running zsh and there is no .bashrc file in the machine.
How can I make zsh to start automatically when I open iTerm.
You can change your default shell to zsh.
Using the below command, and type your password
chsh -s /bin/zsh
If you want to use brew managed zsh, you should append /usr/local/bin/zsh to the end of file /etc/shells, then run command chsh -s /usr/local/bin/zsh.
Then reopen your iTerm2, done.

I have tried to run:
uninstall_oh_my_zsh
but i get a message stating that: -bash: uninstall_oh_my_zsh: command not found
Other commands i have tried are:
chmod +x ~/.oh-my-zsh/tools/uninstall.sh
I get a response stating that: No such file or directory
sh ~/.oh-my-zsh/tools/uninstall.sh
Ran:
chsh -s /bin/bash
To change default terminal from /bin/zsh to /bin/bash
I also tried:
rm -rf ~/.oh-my-zsh
rm ~/.zshrc
cp ~/.zshrc.pre-oh-my-zsh ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
None of them have worked thus far, when i open my terminal. I get a message stating that:
The default interactive shell is now zsh.
To update your account to use zsh, please run chsh -s /bin/zsh
You don't have Oh My Zsh (a set of configuration files for zsh and a way to manage them) installed in the first place.
The warning is coming from /bin/bash itself; it's hard-coded into the executable supplied by macOS.
$ strings /bin/bash | grep "default interactive shell"
The default interactive shell is now zsh.
Though they don't say so, I suspect the warning is there because they plan to remove bash from future versions of macOS entirely. They stopped providing newer versions of bash years ago.
Your default shell is already /bin/bash; the warning is recommending that you switch to /bin/zsh.
You can continue to use bash, though I recommend installing a newer version (3.2 is old) using something like Homebrew, then changing your login shell to the new version.
However, unless you are really committed to using bash, I suggest given zsh a try.
I just upgraded to macOS Catalina (10.15.2) from macOS Mojave. I have used aliases in my ~/.bash_profile and it stopped working after Catalina upgrade.
alias mci='mvn clean install'
alias mcit='mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true'
alias mcid='mvn clean install -Dmaven.surefire.debug'
What should I do?
What kind of shell are you using? bash? zsh?
Have you changed anything else in your:
.profile
.bash_profile
.bashrc
If you could add your files here maybe there is a "bug" in the beginning for the files?
Seems catalina has changed the default shell to zsh. So maybe moving your
.bashrc is now .zshrc and .bash_profile is now .zprofile will fix this.
and to go back to bash instead
you can list the shells
cat /etc/shells
in the terminal, to update your account to use bash run chsh -s /bin/bash. enter password if need be and shut it down and re-open
I have problems with my terminal after trying to install Homebrew on my Mac. When I start the terminal I get :
-bash: touch: command not found
When I do echo $PATH I get:
/usr/local/bin:??
I've tried several suggestions like
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
and then it works, but when I restart my terminal, it starts all over.
According to the bash man page, .bash_profile is executed for login shells, while .bashrc is executed for interactive non-login shells.
Mac OS X runs a login shell by default for each new terminal window, calling .bash_profile instead of .bashrc.
Setup your PATH variable in .bash_profile
vim ~/.bash_profile
correct PATH variable with below single line(which is working fine as per the question)
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
I have installed the Anaconda for Mac, but there is something wrong with me:
when I type the commandwhich conda or which ipython, I get conda not found and ipython not find
Then I find this command export PATH=~/anaconda/bin:"$PATH" works for me. It solves the problem above, but everytime I rerun the terminal the problem is still there, I have to type it again.
so I want to find a way to solve the problem fundamentally
I have tried to add it into the ~/.bashrc, ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile, but these don't work for me.
Try this in .bash_profile
export PATH="$HOME/anaconda/bin:$PATH"
Then try launching a new terminal and running:
echo $PATH
The output should start with /anaconda/bin:
If that still doesn't work... A work around might be to invoke bash after running terminal i.e. type "bash". Which should cause bash to launch with .bash_profile
I run on MacOs Catalina 10.15 and this did the trick for me:
shell is zsh !
$ source /Users/myprofilename/anaconda3/bin/activate
then
$ conda init zsh
the new anaconda documentation also highlights this:
Make sure you're not using ZShell or another form of a shell. If the case you'd have to add the path to your respective shell file, e.g .zshrc.
sudo xed /etc/environment
after open this archive add :/home/youruser/anaconda3/bin
If you're using ZShell follow the steps below:
In your terminal type open ~/.zshrc
Add the following to the file export PATH=/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH
Save your file and then run the following command source ~/.zshrc
Please note that the homebrew path on Apple silicon is /opt/homebrew/bin
Hi I've recently installed zsh using cygwin on my Windows machince but when I type zsh to start this I get the following:
GG#GG-PC ~
$ zsh
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u#\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n\$
On my mac I am using iTerm2 and this is so much easier to setup on here. Also I am having trouble in setting up the aliases and this is becauses its not setup properly in terms of config file where I can set this up in a separate file.
Any ideas how I can resolve?
It looks like zsh is inheriting the value of PS1 from the previous shell. The PS1 environment variable sets the shell prompt, and zsh used a different format for prompt substitutions than other shells. Try entering the following command after you start zsh:
PS1=$'%{\e]0;%d\a%}\n%F{green}%n#%m %F{yellow}%d%f\n%# '
If that works, add that line to your ~/.zshrc file.
That's also probably a good place to put your aliases.
There might be an issue because you launch zsh from bash actually and not cygwin.
One thing you can do is to launch zsh as the starting shell of mintty (the window that wraps your shell)
Create a shortcut with this inside:
c:\<cygwin-folder>\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico /usr/bin/zsh --login -
Yo need to update .zshrc with your required theme and then
source .zshrc
