ifort: command not found

Question

I have downloaded and installed Intel Parallel_Studio_xe_2016_update1. After that I have edited my .bashrc file and compiled two programs. After closing the terminal, I have tried to compile again and then I got ifort not found. My .bashrc contains:

PATH=/opt/intel/parallel_studio_xe_2016.1.056/compilers_and_libraries_2016/linux/bin:$PATH
export PATH

If I do:

source /opt/intel/parallel_studio_xe_2016.1.056/compilers_and_libraries_2016/linux/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64

I can compile fortran code. But when I close the terminal, in a new terminal compiling is not available. What's the problem?

Solution

You say that after you do this in the terminal, you are able to compile Fortran code:

source /opt/intel/parallel_studio_xe_2016.1.056/compilers_and_libraries_2016/linux/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64

So add it to your .bashrc file. After that, when you open a new terminal, you should be able to compile.

Where is the ifort command? Have you opened a new terminal after changing the PATH?

@terdon ifrotvar.sh is located in directory where path points to.I have not changed a path.

What's ifrotvar.sh? You only mention ifort in your question. Please [edit[ and explain exactly what you did, show us the exact commands you used and the exact error message received.

@terdon ifortvars.sh is used to set environmental variables.More here bgu.ac.il/intel_fortran_docs/compiler_f/main_for/mergedProje‌​cts/…
