Why does my terminal show -bash: /usr/share/lmod/lmod/init/sh: No such file or directory

-bash: /usr/share/modules/init/sh: No such file or directory

When I open up my terminal this appears first. I was trying to install lmod, and I think this might be a result due to that. How do I remove it ?

Solution 1:

EDIT:

As per this, installation of lmod probably changed one or more of the files in /etc/profile.d/*.sh.

You could try checking this (e.g., with the last modification date), and then look for the culprit.

Some info you could post to help:

1. The contents of "suspicious" files among those referred to.
2. The sequence of commands you used to install lmod. You could get this if you have history enabled.
3. An exact copy of everything you get when launching a terminal, including possibly the prompt.

From a terminal, execute bash. You will likely see the same error message. If so, you can execute (preferably from a new terminal) bash -x -v. The options are:

  -v  Print shell input lines as they are read.
  -x  Print commands and their arguments as they are executed.

This way you would be able to identify the culprit of the error message.
