Cannot find command after reboot even though chmod +x was successful?

  • 772

Dealing with a weird problem on CentOS trying to add the Play! framework to my path. Just earlier I successfully did a chmod +x play on Play! and I could run commands.

Then I rebooted and it completely fails. All attempts to retry chmod fail. I'm doing this from root user, it has 777 permissions, and belongs to the root group.

bash: play: command not found

What am I not considering?

centos redhat chmod

    It isn't enough to just add the directory to $PATH; you must make a change to your configuration to add it to $PATH on reboot or shell start. Try editing ~/.bashrc.
