Can't open Sqlite on Git Bash - sqlite

I'm trying to access my sqlite database on my current directory at /c/wamp/www/laravel5 on my local project folder, with windows as my OS. I added the sqlite3 executable on the directory.
The database doesn't seem to open using git bash. When using the default command in windows command prompt it works seamlesly. sqlite3.exe storage/database.sqlite
Tried on Git Bash:
$ ./sqlite3.exe
and
$ ./sqlite3.exe storage/database.sqlite
These didn't work.
The error message is:
bash: sqlite3.exe: command not found
Here's a snapshot:
I'd like to see the database tables and schema using git bash since it has cooler font colors compare with the windows cmd.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if you have the same problem I had, then see my question here.
In short, using "winpty" to start sqlite3 worked:
$ winpty sqlite3

Building on the previous answer by #user172431, add the following alias to your .bashrc
alias sqlite3="winpty sqlite3.exe"
This will make the workflow a tad quicker and feel like a ninja rock-star in the process. I use this shortcut via Git Bash

Having an Npx issue while executing npx firestore-algolia-search

I want to sync my old firestore data of a collection to algolia. I have followed the documentation provided and face issues with npx. If anyone could help me would mean a lot.
Here's the output I get if I use a PowerShell terminal
/bin/bash: C:/Program Files/nodejs/npx: No such file or directory
I receive this error when using bash in wsl even when providing the full path to npx and the script file.
Any help would mean a lot
I have tried and tested all the solutions I could find on the internet from using git bash to execute the script to using wsl to execute the bash script without any luck
Use npx firestore-algolia-search#0.5.14. Something is broken in 0.5.15.
EDIT: I created a github ticket for this issue.

karaf: JAVA_HOME is not valid: /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java [duplicate]

I am working in Ubuntu 16.04. I need to install gradle and the gradle is installed when i checked with sudo apt list --installed command but when i use gradle -version command it shows the following error,
JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java
In sudo vim /etc/environment file,
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/"

I don't know where i made mistakes. Please help me.
Thanks.
On a 64bit openSuse 64 42.1 box;
readlink -f $(which java)
provided;
/usr/lib64/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0/jre/bin/java
But;
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib64/jvm/jre-1.8.0-openjdk
is the path that worked and allowed java emulator to run.
So i think we have to manually browse our file system and see what path to choose.
Today I faced this problem. I am using the default java that comes with your linux distro (so in my case, linux mint).
$ whereis java
This command gave me
java: /usr/bin/java /usr/share/java
So, I opened /user/bin. There was a link to Java. I right clicked it and selected follow original link. This lead me to /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java.
So now that I know where this java is, I opened my .bashrc file, and edited the JAVA_HOME.
So for my case,
## My Custom variables
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
This solved the problem.
Now if you are using some other java (say you downloaded from oracle and extracted the zip file ...), then you have to add that location. So for example, if your java is in /home/user/.sdkman/candidates/java/current, then
export JAVA_HOME=/home/user/.sdkman/candidates/java/current
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
I see a mismatch. In your enviornment file the JAVA_HOME is set to "/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/" and your mentioned that the error that you got relates to the JAVA_HOME as "/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java"
If you JAVA is really installed in /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle directory, then you need to ensure that the JAVA_HOME is set to that directory. And also your PATH reflects $JAVA_HOME/bin in it.
I typically install Oracle JDK/JRE separately in a separate directory such as /usr/local/jdk1.8.0 etc.
check the jvm installtion folder from Files
eg : /usr/lib/jvm/java-12-oracle
then in terminal run sudo nano /etc/environment and add the line
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-12-oracle"
Then open terminal and run
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-12-oracle"

Why am i able to run unix commands on my PC?

How am i able to execute UNIX commands on my PC Command prompt? Note i do not have cygwin installed, although i was going to before i discovered this.
This is a development machine so i have a lot installed on it like ruby, python, git, github, node and so on.
What does this mean? can i use this without cygwin?
Here is a list of programs installed on my PC program list
How am I able to execute UNIX commands on my PC Command prompt?
You can use the where command in a cmd shell to find out the exact location of your Unix commands, for example:
where ls
This assumes, of course, that ls is located somewhere in your current PATH.
The location returned will show you in which directory your Unix commands are installed and may be enough for you to determine how they were installed.
The where command is roughly equivalent to the Unix which command.
By default, the search is done in the current directory and in the
PATH.
Syntax
WHERE [/r Dir] [/q] [/f] [/t] Pattern ...
WHERE [/q] [/f] [/t] [$ENV:Pattern

where - Locate and display files in a directory tree.
Running Unix commands in windows can be done by having a tool like Cygwin which has those commands.
You can also get many of those commands compiled for windows and then run them using the command with the full path or only the command if the executable is in a path known by adding the paths to the executable files in Windows by :
1) Running in the terminal: PATH %PATH%;C:\<new_path>
2) Creating command aliases like: doskey np=C:\<new_path>\new_command.exe $*. $* is used to be able to transmit parameters

'RM' is not recognized as an internal or external command while using Meteor on Windows

i am currently having problem with 'meteor' and i am currently new to this learning this stuff. So, after installing 'Meteor' i opened command prompt on Windows and typed :
meteor create goodboy
and then,
cd goodboy
But to delete the live and already running example app, i used :
rm goodboy.*
But the command prompt, gave this error :
rm is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
Is there anyway i can fix this error, thank you.
Use del on Windows.
Also, this has nothing to do with Meteor. You can also delete a Meteor project by going to the folder and dragging it to the trash.
If you are on windows, git bash may run such commands.
If you are using Mac then we can simply use
rm -f src/*
and For windows we can use command for this is
del -f "src/*"
Hope this works fine for you.
Download and Extract PortableGit.
This has most of commonly used Linux based tools ported to windows.
Add [PortableGit Path]\usr\bin to PATH variable of Windows
You can also use your system's Git installation instead of PortableGit.
This should solve the problem
I'm running Git shell prompt and for some reason it doesn't have it any more. I ended up using Cygin to get it working:
https://www.cygwin.com/
My penny's worth.
You could potentially add rm to powershell. In your (or a) profile.ps1 (or other if your powershell is not core).
rm {
del
}
or as an alias
Set-Alias rm del
or (and this is a tricky one), run WSL, bind the target folder and run via the linux interface.
PS: running the command via the Git Bash (MINGW64) terminal as suggested above, did the trick for me.
I guess you are not using bash terminal. Try this..
1- Go to the folder that you want to remove its contents lets call it my-app folder.
2- Right click in the empty space, then choose get Bash here.
3- Paste the command rm -f A_folder/* (I'm about to remove the content inside A_folder folder which is a sub-folder inside my-app).
4- Hit enter.
That should remove all content from A_folder folder.
Hope that helps.
I guess you are not using the Git Bash terminal but the normal command prompt.
Do try the same on the Git Bash terminal and you would not face this error anymore.
first, install linux clients for windows, I use Ubunto LTS
then install node.js and run your command again.
here, you find good instructions to do it so, as well as how to install cool new Windows Terminal
you should add
"remove-build": "rmdir /s /q build",
"create-build": "mkdir build",
"clean": "npm run remove-build && npm run create-build",
in package.json

How to use XULRunner to run SQLite Manager outside of Firefox in Mac OS X Lion?

I have installed XULRunner 11.0 (xr) from here:
Downloads - sqlite-manager - Extension for Firefox and other apps to manage any sqlite database - Google Project Hosting
I have followed the steps listed here:
kiveo - Mac SQLite Manager Standalone App
I have read and tried the suggestions here (though they're for version 6.0):
stackoverflow: How to Install and run a XulRunner Application on Mac OS X?
I am able to get the help listing with this command:
/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin -h
I am able to run the app from Firefox using this command (after changing the max version in sqlitemanager-xr-0/application.ini to 11.0 from 11.0a1):
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox --app ~/Downloads/sqlitemanager-xr-0/application.ini
Here are the contents of the application.ini file:
[App]
Name=sqlite-manager
ID=SQLiteManager#mrinalkant.blogspot.com
Version=0.7.7
BuildID=201111132204
Vendor=lazierthanthou
Copyright=Copyright (c) 2008 - 2011 lazierthanthou
[Gecko]
MinVersion=2.0
MaxVersion=11.0
[XRE]
EnableExtensionManager=1
When I run the following command in Terminal, with or without sudo, it just immediately returns to the command prompt. There are no error messages. No application appears under Applications. Nothing seems to happen at all. (And, despite the stackoverflow page above noting that --install-app may not really be supported, it is in the XULRunner help listing - which I guess doesn't necessarily mean it'll work ;)
/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin --install-app Downloads/sqlitemanager-xr-0/ /Applications
Following a suggestion below, I checked for an exit code. The line above is returning 2.
Help?
Just like you did with Firefox, this command should run your app:
/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin --app ~/Downloads/sqlitemanager-xr-0/application.ini
Also, the --app switch is optional within XULRunner.
Here's how you can make a self-contained application you can run from the Dock.
Use the xulrunner --install-app command to create the application and then copy all contents of XUL.framework/Versions/Current into the generated application at /Applications/sqlite-manager.app/Contents/MacOS.
You can then create a wrapper script that runs the xulrunner within the generated app with the application.ini file as described here.
For example, put the following into sqlite-manager.app/Contents/MacOS/sqlite-manager and make it executable.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
APP_PATH="/Applications/sqlite-manager.app"
"$APP_PATH/Contents/MacOS/xulrunner" --app "$APP_PATH/Contents/Resources/application.ini"
Now you have to tell OS X to run sqlite-manager instead of xulrunner. You can do that by editing sqlite-manager.app/Contents/info.plist and setting CFBundleExecutable to sqlite-manager like this:
<key>CFBundleExecutable</key>
<string>sqlite-manager</string>
The only limitation of this approach is that it breaks when you move the application or rename it. I'd love suggestions on how to get rid of the absolute path within the sqlite-manager script.
try this:
firefox -chrome chrome://sqlitemanager/content/sqlitemanager.xul
or on OS X
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -chrome chrome://sqlitemanager/content/sqlitemanager.xul
(found on http://www.egeek.me/2013/09/07/how-to-run-sqlite-manager-with-a-single-command/)
works fine for me on UBUNTU 12.04 to start sqlite manager without starting firefox first
If the install was successful, I think the app should be available in some usual place for your system (which wasn't mentioned, but I'm guessing OSX :). Have you looked under /Applications?
To see whether the command failed quietly, you could check its return value. Is there a verbose switch?
$ cd narnia
bash: cd: narnia: No such file or directory
$ echo $?
1
$ cd .
$ echo $?
0
$ cd narnia && echo "success"
bash: cd: narnia: No such file or directory
$ cd . && echo "success"
success
