bash shell problems
Authored by: rsnyder on Jan 11, '03 08:05:34PM

I am running 10.2.3. In the past (not sure if since up grading to Jag) I have had the bash shell as my default, but I changed it a while ago. Now when I try to change back to the bash I am getting the following:

dyld: -bash Undefined symbols:
_tgetent
_tgetflag
_tgetnum
_tgetstr
_tgoto
_tputs
[Process was terminated by signal 5]

I removed all the bash profile config files in my ~ directory and in /etc in case they were corrupt, but same error. tcsh works fine.

Any suggestions?

You need to upgrade your version of bash.

I have reinstalled 2.05 from the link on VersionTracker and from the Apple site. No change. Other thoughts?

Under Terminal->Preferences try to execute /bin/tcsh or if that doesn't work try /usr/bin/tcsh

worked for me.
