I've installed hping app via homebrew.
When I do brew list I get this response:
$ brew list
.... ... .... hping ... .... ...
however when I run my hping this happens.
$ hping
zsh: command not found: hping
and also this:
$ brew info hping
hping: stable 3.20051105
http://www.hping.org/
/usr/local/Cellar/hping/3.20051105 (9 files, 196K) *
Built from source
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/hping.rb
I tried reinstalling it but it doesn't work. Very weird how this is possible. Couldn't find anything related to this. Any ideas ?
Add /usr/local/sbin to $PATH.
hping binaries are installed in /usr/local/sbin, not in /usr/local/bin.
EDIT: As #veslam says, you can add sbin by PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin.

I have googled around the error I was experiencing but from what I could tell this issue is likely related to how the path in which Homebrew is saved for Big Sur/Apple Silicon is different than other Macbook approaches.
Following the instructions on the Homebrew page, I ran the cURL command:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
However, after the operation successfully completed, there was a warning in terminal:
warning: bin/opt/ path does not exist
And when I attempted to run a brew doctor the command was not found.
It's clear there is a pathing issue, but how do I solve it
In this case, I discovered it was a combination of a PATH issue as well as the .zshrc file was missing from the ~/ directory
I was able to resolve the issue with these steps.
Navigate to cd /opt/homebrew/bin/
Run export PATH=$PATH:/opt/homebrew/bin
Navigate back to "home" with cd ~/
in this directory I found that there was no .zshrc file (:scream:)
So I created a file with touch .zshrc and then
ran this command: echo export PATH=$PATH:/opt/homebrew/bin >> .zshrc
And after running that command, I was able to successfully use the brew doctor and other related commands!
My mac is having MacOS 10.12.4 (Sierra). And I have installed homebrew using command line. This is what look like when I run "brew config" command.
Then I wanted to install class-dump using following command.
"brew install class-dump". But when it gives me following error. Can some one tell me the reason and what should I do?
I was able to solve the problem by installing class-dump manually without using home brew. I downloaded the class-dump in using this link. Then copy the class-dump file to the following location "/usr/local/bin". Then all works fine
Here is a one liner for the lazy people if you already have wget:
$ wget -qO- http://stevenygard.com/download/class-dump-3.5.tar.gz | tar xvz - -C /usr/local/bin
I am trying to install ROOT (cern.root.ch). When I run ./configure , I get a message that libX11 is missing and must be installed.
I did some research and found that I need to install
) XQuartz (I already have the latest version.)
) Command line tools in Xcode.
I tried installing Command Line Tools from apple's developer website. The installation goes through smoothly but how do I know whether it has been installed? I still get libX11 missing error with root's configure command.
I also tried xcode-select --install and it once went through smoothly and then later again gives error saying this package is no longer maintained - or something of that sort.
I understand I may have multiple installations... But I am still facing the problem of not having libX11 and not being able to install ROOT.
Thanks,
Hershal.
This link and the one referenced in it suggests you use homebrew (brew) to install it
$ ruby <(curl -fsS https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)
$ brew doctor
Remember to add the Homebrew directory to your PATH by adding the directory (found with brew --prefix) to your .bashrc, .zshrc or whatever shell file you’re using (.bashrc is the OS X default). We’ll also add the XQuartz binaries to the PATH in case anything needs them in the future.
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:$PATH
Start a new Terminal session to pick up the changes.
Now that Homebrew is installed, we can use it to install the required dependencies. Each may take some time as Homebrew generally compiles from source.
$ brew install gfortran # Fortran compiler
$ brew install python # Python interpreter
$ brew install pcre # Regular Expressions library
$ brew install fftw # Fast Fourier Transforms
$ brew install cmake # Cross-platform make
install root
$ brew tap homebrew/science
$ brew install --with-cocoa root
You don't say whether you have installed XCode as well as the commandline tools but I think you will need it
I'm having some trouble with brew which I'm trying to solve. When I currently run brew doctor I get the following output:
Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Leaving kegs unlinked can lead to build-trouble and cause brews that depend on
those kegs to fail to run properly once built. Run `brew link` on these:
autoconf
libevent
Warning: Homebrew's sbin was not found in your PATH but you have installed
formulae that put executables in /usr/local/sbin.
Consider setting the PATH for example like so
echo export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile
So I went ahead and tried all the suggestions. First brew link autoconf, which results in:
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69... Warning: Could not link autoconf. Unlinking...
Error: Could not symlink file: /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest-mode.elc
Target /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest-mode.elc already exists. You may need to delete it.
To force the link and overwrite all other conflicting files, do:
brew link --overwrite formula_name
To list all files that would be deleted:
brew link --overwrite --dry-run formula_name
So again I tried the suggested command: brew link --overwrite autoconf:
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69... Warning: Could not link autoconf. Unlinking...
Error: Permission denied - /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest-mode.elc
My initial response to a permission denied is usually prepending it with sudo, which leads brew to tell me: Error: Cowardly refusing tosudo brew link`.
When trying brew link libevent I get the same results as with brew link autoconf.
Finally, I tried solving the sbin that was not found by running the suggested echo export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile. This runs without error, but when I run brew doctor again, the message still appears.
Does anybody know how I can solve these issues? All tips are welcome!
The general problem here is that autoconf and libevent are already installed on your system, and they are in your homebrew "Cellar" as well. Thus there are TWO copies of autoconf on your system, and TWO copies of libevent on your system.
What homebrew is trying to do is delete the previously install (system wide) version of these libraries, and replace all the relevant REAL files with symlinks from the homebrew Cellar. That would give homebrew full control over upgrading and managing these libraries for you. It would also give you just one copy of these libraries available in two places.
The problem is that homebrew doesn't have unix permissions to delete these REAL files, and you'll need to do it yourself. Here's how for autoconf:
$ sudo rm /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest-mode.elc
$ sudo chmod 777 /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/autoconf
$ brew link --overwrite autoconf
You should see:
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69... 21 symlinks created
UPDATE I just noticed the part about sbin. I'm not sure how this problem happened originally, but I can explain how to fix it.
The fix recommended by homebrew (ECHO ...) only takes effect when you next login to your Mac. To have this change take effect now, you have to force your terminal to re-read the .bash_profile file. Just $ source ~/.bash_profile after you run the ECHO command provided by homebrew.
Since this question is a few months old now, you probably already discovered that this error message has gone away.
Run the following commands to grant the privileges:
$ sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local
Once the privileges are granted, now they have to be just linked since it is already installed:
$ brew link autoconf
$ brew link libevent
You may want to change writing permissions with chmod on /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/autotest-mode.elc
After that you should get something like this:
Linking /usr/local/Cellar/autoconf/2.69... 21 symlinks created
I installed MongoDB via Homebrew (following http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/) but it's not working.
Typing mongod at shell prompt gives me:
-bash: mongod: command not found
Not sure if I need to add something for Homebrew to my PATH env var?
I can see Mongo is installed under /usr/local/Cellar/mongodb – but am assuming I don't need to add everything I install via homebrew to the path? Also, assuming I can run mongod from any directory or am I actually meant to be in install directory?
When I run brew doctor I get:
Warning: You have unlinked kegs in your Cellar
Followed by a list of 3 items which includes MongoDB – but I'm not sure how I'm meant to link them?
Works perfectly
brew update
brew tap mongodb/brew
brew install mongodb-community#4.2
For latest version, check https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/release-notes/
You're getting this error because your 'brew' install failed to create the correct symlinks in /usr/local/bin. As a result, the shell can't find the mongo executables in your $PATH. You can fix this using the following steps:
Check the permissions on /usr/local/bin and make sure that you own that directory and have write permissions on it
$ ls -ld /usr/local/bin
Once you've fixed that, run 'brew link' to fix the symlinks
$ brew link mongodb
If you are on mongodb-community#4.0. You can try to reinstall with brew reinstall mongodb-community#4.0.
Then I get the following hint:
==> Caveats
mongodb-community#4.0 is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.
If you need to have mongodb-community#4.0 first in your PATH run:
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/mongodb-community#4.0/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
So you can just copy the echo command and restart your shell!
Copied from a different channel running these commands in the terminal updated the installation/configuration issues as described in OP
brew tap mongodb/brew
brew install mongodb-community
brew services start mongodb-community
I faced the same problem and this solution seemed to work for me. I had previously uninstalled mongodb and reinstalled it through homebrew which gave me a bunch of problems. This solution seemed to work just fine.
brew uninstall --force mongodb
brew cleanup -s mongodb
brew cleanup --prune-prefix
brew install mongodb
It works from the directory since the sh searches the ENV path and then the cwd for a program named mongod. I have been looking around a little and it seems that the default install of MongoDB (I am not a Mac user) does not install a rc or init script for which sh to understand it's running behaviour as stated here:
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-os-x/#using-mongodb-from-homebrew-and-macports
The packages installed with Homebrew and MacPorts contain no control
scripts or interaction with the system’s process manager.
If you have configured Homebrew and MacPorts correctly, including
setting your PATH, the MongoDB applications and utilities will be
accessible from the system shell. Start the mongod process in a
terminal (for testing or development) or using a process management
tool.
So you must actually define (as you said) MongoDBs path, here is an example: https://snipt.net/sido/installing-mongodb-on-os-x/
Edit: the example is not mine. I just stole it from it's user: https://snipt.net/sido/
