iFort disppears after terminal restart

[sebpinski]

I have the problem that after installing mkl, intel compiler suite and fortran compiler (version 11.1) that even after running:

source /opt/intel/Compiler/11.1/072/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64

The environment isn't permentantly stored. I've not had this problem before, just a fresh install. Previously everything has just worked so I'm a little unstuck.

I've recently upgraded to opensuse 11.3 and everything is different. I don't even have a path set in my .bashrc.

Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks,
Seb

The compiler doesn't install any semi-permanent way of setting the path. You must source ifortvars in each new session. You could add the source command to your .bashrc if you so choose, but you must remember to change it when you update the compiler.
