#20264: port and gnucash problem ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: jose.castro@… | Owner: snc@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.1 Keywords: | Port: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Changes (by snc@…): * owner: macports-tickets@… => snc@… * status: new => assigned Comment: Replying to [ticket:20264 jose.castro@…]:

I am a newbie with a new MacBook. I read previous tickets but they were too technical for me.

On one user in the computer I installed MacPorts and then installed gnucash. These commands will not run in another user unless I run them like: `/opt/local/bin/port` or `/opt/local/bin/gnucash`

Is there a way to fix this?

Yes, you need to edit the new user's `~/.profile` to [http://guide.macports.org/#installing.shell.postflight set their PATH to include MacPorts].

Then I have a second problem. When trying to run gnucash I get: {{{ Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded! }}} If I run `launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus- session.plist` then I have no problems, but I don't want to run this everytime.

What can I do?

The command you're running forces a load each time. What you want to run is `launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus- session.plist` From `man launchctl` you'll see that: 1. -w removes the disabled key and write the configuration files back out to disk. 1. -F forces the loading of the plist. Ignore the Disabled key. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20264#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Using the launchctl with -w helped solve the problem, gnucash now loads fine. I modified my ~/.profile in the user that could not run commands from MacPorts by setting PATH. I did exactly what it is said there, but it still doesn't work. I still need to do /opt/local/bin/gnucash. I restarted Terminal and even restarted the computer to reinitialize my session, and it still doesn't work. So problem 2, solved, problem 1 not.

What is the result of the following command?

{{{ echo $PATH }}}

The result is the following {{{ /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20264#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
