Homebrew keep showing warning to set PATH on OS X 10.11 - macos

I am on Mac OSX 10.11 after running
brew doctor
And there is a warning in my terminal.
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"' >> ~/.zshrc
After I fixed this PATH in my .zshrc file, I run brew doctor again,
this error is still remain.
Any suggestions?

What my .zshrc file now looks like:
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
I finally solved this problem by restarting my terminal and run brew doctor again.
Warnings disappear!

you can resolve this problem : delete all "unbound" * in /usr/local/sbin;
Then cakebrew and homebrew doctors are OK
Have a nice day

How can I permanently add Homebrew to my PATH?

I have an M1 Mac Mini. Every time I want to use brew in a new terminal, it tells me :
zsh: command not found: brew
So I always do this to solve it :
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/homebrew/bin
But then the next time I open a terminal, this has been forgotten. Is there a way to make it stick? I wonder why the homebrew installation doesn't do this by default? (It does warn me that it's not added to the path during installation).
Thanks!
Create/open the ~/.zshrc file and add this line to it: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/homebrew/bin

Cannot update PATH to accommodate Homebrew commands

I am attempting to install Homebrew on MacOS but keep getting the error Warning: /opt/homebrew/bin is not in your PATH. I have updated my .zshrc to include export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH but have had no such and continue to not be able to access brew commands. I am running MacOS BigSur and am attempting to set up a ruby coding environment.
By running /opt/homebrew/bin/brew doctor as noted in the warning as opposed to brew doctor I was given the correct notation for updating my .zshrc file export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH as opposed to export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH as indicated in several answers to similar questions. After running source ~/.zshrc and brew doctor the system confirmed the path had been updated properly.

Mac OSX (Apple Silicon) Homebrew installed but brew cmd not found

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!

unable to setup ssldump on mac using homebrew

I just installed ssldump on a mac computeg using brew. The installation process ran without reporting any issues (ssldump-0.9b3 already installed). However, when I try running ssldump from the same prompt or a new terminal window, the error message I get is:
-bash: ssldump: command not found
Is there anything else that i need to do to make this work on a Mac El capitan (v10.11.6)?
Simply using brew install ssldump did not work for me as ssldump was added in /usr/local/sbin (which was neither mentioned on /etc/paths nor in .bash_profile). I ended up adding /usr/local/sbin to the .bash_profile and used sourced the file to enable the change.
cd ~
sudo vi .bash_profile
add to the file:
export PATH=/usr/local/sbin:$PATH
&
source .bash_profile

Homebrew Warnings: How do I resolve these warning and correct my path on Mac 10.10.2 Yosemite?

I'm fairly new to programming so I could really use your help.
I think Yosemite upgrade has royally screwed up my path and homebrew, and was hoping you folks can help me get back on track without reseting my mac. So as I get ready to dive back into rails I ran brew doctor and got a bunch of warnings, but not "ready to brew", how do I fix this?
Here is my current path:
anian$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p353/bin:/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p353#global/bin:/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p353/bin:/usr/local/rvm/bin:/usr/local/heroku/bin:/Users/anian/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/sm/bin:/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin:/opt/sm/pkg/active/sbin
My current bash profile:
~/.bash_profile
-bash: /Users/anian/.bash_profile: Permission denied
I did this: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
But I got nothing but what you see below, Please help.
This is what I got:
anian$ brew doctor
Please note that these warnings are just used to help the Homebrew maintainers
with debugging if you file an issue. If everything you use Homebrew for is
working fine: please don't worry and just ignore them. Thanks!
Warning: "config" scripts exist outside your system or Homebrew directories.
`./configure` scripts often look for *-config scripts to determine if
software packages are installed, and what additional flags to use when
compiling and linking.
Having additional scripts in your path can confuse software installed via
Homebrew if the config script overrides a system or Homebrew provided
script of the same name. We found the following "config" scripts:
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/curl-config
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/ncurses5-config
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/ncursesw5-config
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/pkg-config
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/xml2-config
/opt/sm/pkg/active/bin/xslt-config
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
I had to reset my machine altogether, it doesn't appear there is a way to reset the path and make sure everything is stable at the same time.
