the lack of administrative priviledges associated with your user account

Hye guys i got this error when i install and purge packages .. also problem when i run command reboot or another command a terminal tell me run using /sbin/<packages> or /usr/sbin/<packages> .. anybody help me please .


1: error on terminal ..

dpkg: warning: 'ldconfig' not found on PATH.
dpkg: warning: 'start-stop-daemon' not found on PATH.
dpkg: warning: 'update-rc.d' not found on PATH.
dpkg: 3 expected program(s) not found on PATH.
NB: root's PATH should usually contain /usr/local/sbin, /usr/sbin and /sbin.
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)

2: error on terminal ..

The command could not be located because '/usr/sbin' is not included in the PATH environment variable.
This is most likely caused by the lack of administrative priviledges associated with your user account.


Thank You .

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo should help you with the administative privileges that you might need for some tasks.

Wouldn't dpkg bail out even before trying to execute anything if not being run under sudo? In this case, I'd rather suspect a wrongly set secure_path in /etc/sudoers or something like this.

[arexsekerat]

my /etc/sudoers

Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

So, /etc/sudoers looks okay. Let's try to find out where the wrong PATH comes from. Please post the output of following commands:

sudo sh -c 'echo $PATH'

echo 'echo $PATH'|sudo -s

pkexec sh -c 'echo $PATH'
