MacPorts package installer did not adjust bash PATH

[michellebsalazar@…]

I installed macports by downloading the pkg and now I'm getting this error: -bash: port: command not found

and cannot get macports to do anything. Plus I think I've corrupted some files. This is what's in the bash_profile:

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin

In the future, please use WikiFormatting.

Trac is not for tech support. Use the ​Macports Users mailing list instead. Your path is not ​correctly setup for Macports.

The installer should have modified .bash_profile, though. Are those all the lines in your .bash_profile that mention PATH?

Can you please provide the output of the following commands?

$ echo $PATH
$ /opt/local/bin/port usage

(By the way, we do not support using MacPorts while other software is installed in /usr/local. We advise installing any such software using MacPorts instead; if we don’t have a port for a particular piece of software, feel free to ​request one.)
