I have an access to a Dreamhost subdomain on which I'm trying to run a Django REST app. The server runs on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS. Something went wrong in my virtual environment, so I'm trying to follow Dreamhost's instructions to install Python again. I get stuck at step 4:
. ~/.bash_profile
The command doesn't return, and I have to interrupt it to get back. Here's my .bashrc:
# ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells.
export NVM_DIR="/home/julius/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
source .bash_profile
and here's my .bash_profile:
# ~/.bash_profile: executed by bash(1) for login shells.
umask 002
PS1='[\h]$ '
. $HOME/.bashrc
export PATH=$HOME/opt/python-3.5.1/bin:$PATH
What am I doing wrong?
You have infinite recursion when loading .bashrc
or .bash_profile
since they both source each other. You should probably remove the call to . $HOME/.bashrc
. $HOME/.bashrc
to prevent this.
It never returns because it can never complete. Your .bash_profile
sources your .bashrc
, which in turns sources ( .
s) your .bash_profile
, which sources your .bashrc
, which ...
The bash source
command (or .
, which is just another name for the same thing) is not like a require
or import
statement that only happens once. It is an runtime command that executes the source
d file every time it's encountered.
