This question already has an answer here:



  • How can I make environment variables “exported” in a shell script stick around?

    2 answers



  • What's the difference between “export” and “setenv”?

    1 answer



I need to export an environmental variable to run a program. I am able to successfully do that in interactive mode. However, when I try to export an environmental variable as part of a bash shell script, I get this error message:



export: Command not found.



In interactive mode, when I type in the following command, it works. 



export GT_DIR=/cluster/home/SD/


But when I include the export command as part of the shell script, it does not work. I.e., 



#!/bin/bash

export GT_DIR=/cluster/home/SD/


I get the error message: 



export: Command not found.


When I type in echo $SHELL, I get 



/bin/bash


Why is the export command working in interactive mode but not when I try to submit it as a script?






bash shell-script qsub

  • what do you get if you do 'type export' in shell, export is a builtin command in bash

  • you need to source somethingthatexportsvariables so the command is run within the current process. running a different script will only change the environment in that script, which then exits.
