I have both python2.6 and python2.7 installed in my CentOS box. python2.6 is installed at /usr/bin/python
and i have installed python2.7 from source at location /usr/local/bin/python
after the installation my default python is changed to python2.7 instead of pythn2.6 at /usr/bin
, I want to use python 2.6 at /usr/bin/python
. I have tried following things already nothing worked.
/usr/bin
Please let me know how can i have python 2.7 installed along with 2.6 installed and python 2.6 as my default version. I have the same thing working with my arch linux box, but this doesn't work with my centos box.
Attaching my .bash_profile,
# .bash_profile
export _BASH_PROFILE=1
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -z "$_BASHRC" ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
unset _BASH_PROFILE
# User specific environment and startup programs
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
BASH_ENV=$HOME/.bashrc
USERNAME=""
export USERNAME BASH_ENV PATH
export user=$(/usr/bin/whoami)
export WK_PORT=8086
export WK_PATH=ADC
# For DEV accounts change PYDOC_PORT value to 7400 + webkit number. For
# example WK23 would be port number 7423
export PYDOC_PORT=7464
alias serve="python -m SimpleHTTPServer"
unset _BASH_PROFILE
# User specific environment and startup programs
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
BASH_ENV=$HOME/.bashrc
USERNAME=""
export USERNAME BASH_ENV PATH
export user=$(/usr/bin/whoami)
export WK_PORT=8086
export WK_PATH=ADC
# For DEV accounts change PYDOC_PORT value to 7400 + webkit number. For
# example WK23 would be port number 7423
export PYDOC_PORT=7464
alias serve="python -m SimpleHTTPServer"
PYTHONPATH="$PYTHONPATH:/usr/bin/python"
I had the same problem. The following command fixed it:
sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python /usr/local/bin/python
This will make a symbolic link from /usr/local/bin/python
--> /usr/bin/python
