Missing Windows entries in MSYS' $PATH?
 
|
MSYS appears to lack many entries in its $PATH, compared to my Windows user %PATH%. MSYS: $ echo "$PATH" /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/c/Windows/System32:/c/Windows:/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl Compared to Command Prompt: > echo %PATH% C:\Program Files\ConEmu\ConEmu\Scripts;C:\Program Files\ConEmu;C:\Program Files\ConEmu\ConEmu;C:\Program Files (x86)\Razer Chroma SDK\bin;C:\Program Files\Razer Chroma SDK\bin;C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Windows Performance Toolkit\;C:\Go\bin;C:\Users\a_pen\go\bin;C:\Ruby24-x64\bin;C:\Users\a_pen\.cargo\bin;C:\Users\a_pen\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Users\a_pen\AppData\Local\atom\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\GnuWin\file-5.03-bin\bin;C:\Users\a_pen\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32;C:\Users\a_pen\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\Git\bin MSYS bash configuration: Any ideas for correcting MSYS PATH to include the full Windows user PATH? Other shells feature the correct full PATH, including cmd, PowerShell, Git bash, and bash on Ubuntu on Windows. -- Cheers, Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ MinGW-users mailing list [hidden email] This list observes the Etiquette found at http://www.mingw.org/Mailing_Lists.

Just a guess I have no idea. -- Earnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ MinGW-users mailing list [hidden email] This list observes the Etiquette found at http://www.mingw.org/Mailing_Lists.

Nor here, with 32-bit WinXP or Win7, hosted by VirtualBox on 64-bit LinuxMint Debian Edition; (although the host is 64-bit, VirtualBox refuses to load 64-bit Windows images). >> How do you start the MSYS Bash?

Just a guess I > have no idea. There may be something in this. My first thought was: "isn't this by design?" It used to be thus for me too, but I abandoned Windows as a day-to-day working platform about four years ago, (after I ceased to work for any company which insisted on it). I don't know either, but IIRC, on Win64, MSYS has to be run under SysWOW64; maybe the full 64-bit Win64 %PATH% doesn't propagate to 32-bit SysWOW64? (In my case, it WAS by design: I created a custom $HOME/.profile, in which I explicitly set PATH, deliberately omitting all the Win32 cruft, with which I had no desire to pollute my MSYS $PATH; perhaps the OP could do something similar, to ADD the missing directories ... assuming, of course, that they are appropriate for use from within SysWOW64?) - -- Regards, Keith.
