question with tiger (10.4 on G5 2.3Ghz) :
when I oppen the terminal it's start with the "job competed" message and I can't do anything anymore,
this appends after I install "vmd" which is a software which use terminal,
I try to find the path and the starting files for the terminal.app but I don't find it as it was with 10.3,
X11 still working, anyone has an idea where I find the startup files for the therminal ?
thanks
 
They are in ~/Library/Preferences just find the one for terminal and trash it. You will lose any configurations like colors you have done but it will work after that.
 
Actually, the problem might lie in your ".profile" (~/.profile). Seems like that tells your shell to execute a command and end. Or something... What does your .profile say?
 
I submitted the same problem to tech support yesterday. Nothing yet, but I've trashed the plist and removed .profile as well as my .*rc files. Still broke.
 
cleaning the preference works, (at least until now)
thanks,
one question again : I didn't find how to change the path, do you know which file to change to modify the path (echo $path don't work anymore)
