-bash: sencha command not found

I installed Sencha SDK and Sencha command on my mac-mini and done with some sample app.. but suddenly after some time when I tried to run sencha command on terminal, I got the response as '-bash: sencha command not found', I don't know why this was happened. Earlier I didn't find such type of response but now I got this error. Please tell me what are the possible scenarios for this thing to be happened.. Thanks for your help

Add PATH and VAR manually in .bash_profile file at the root of your user folder,

export SENCHA_CMD_3_0_0="/Users/you/Path/To/Sencha/Cmd/3.0.0.XXX" export PATH=/Users/you/Path/To/Sencha/Cmd/3.0.0.188:$PATH

The Sencha installer expects you to use bash as shell. It fails, if you use any other (like the nice zsh). You need to copy the content of .bash_profile to your shell startup-file (.zprofile in my case), save it and open a new terminal window.

You should procede that way:

  1. Verify if this command is contained in PATH. PATH is an environment variable holded by bash and initialized when a new user is logged in (.bash_profile file for all user and the corrispective into home for single user). So check what echo $PATH told you and verify if this command is contained into those folder
  2. Probably, from step 1, the answer will be "No, it isn't". So you have to procede this way: use whereis command to search this command (that will be an executable script) and once you find it, you have two possibilities: one is to use it directly by specifying full path (returned from whereis command). If you want to run simply it with sencha -arguments you have to add executable path returned by whereis ($PATH=$PATH:/returned/path/by/whereis) into file .bash_profile

In that way you should be able to execute your command from any "point" in your filesystem
