How To Fix Corrupted Bash (.bash_profile) on Linux

We’ll look at how to quickly and simply restore a corrupted bash (.bash_profile) today. Just adhere to the instructions provided below to retrieve your corrupted bash profile.

Log into your server via SSH and check for the below mentioned files, because if they aren’t present then you need to create them on the server one-by-one.

File 1.  # cat /root/.bash_profile
File  2. # cat /root/.bashrc
File  3. # cat /root/.bash_logout

Be very sure to create the above missing files and run the following command in each as given below.
Now edit the file with your favorite editor. I’ll be using vi editor here.

1.  Command –
# vi /root/.bash_profile

CODE:
————————————————–
# .bash_profile
# Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
# User specific environment and startup programs
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
export PATH
unset USERNAME
————————————————–

2.   Command –
# vi /root/.bashrc
CODE:
————————————————–
# .bashrc
# User specific aliases and functions
# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc
fi
————————————————–
3.  Command –
# vi /root/.bash_logout
CODE:
————————————————–
# ~/.bash_logout
clear
———————————-
Now logout and log-in again to confirm the changes.
