Anaconda linux install: conda: command not found

Question

So I installed Anaconda for Python 3.6 according to the instruction from the official downloads page and also this.

I followed all the steps and when I was asked if I wanted to add the Anaconda3 install location to my bashrc I said yes. When I print out the contents of that file, I have:

# .bashrc

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
   . /etc/bashrc
fi

# added by Anaconda 2.3.0 installer
export PATH="/home/username/anaconda/bin:$PATH"

# added by Anaconda3 4.3.1 installer
export PATH="/home/username/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"

So obviously, it's been added. However, when I run conda -V, I get:

bash: conda: commmand not found...

What else can be causing this?

Solution

You need to source the file, or open a new terminal instance, in order for the configuration to be applied:

source ~/.bashrc
