KSH SendMail Not Found: How to Solve?

by | May 9, 2023

Let us learn more about the error ksh sendmail not found an how to remove it with the support of our Server management support services at Bobcares.

Error: ksh sendmail not found

ksh sendmail not found

The error message “Ksh sendmail not found” opens up when attempting to send an email using the Korn shell (ksh) but the system cannot locate the Sendmail software.

Unix-like operating systems widely use Sendmail as an email transfer agent (MTA) for sending emails between machines on a network. Most Unix- computers have it by default.

If we encounter the “ksh sendmail not found” issue, it usually means that the system does not have the Sendmail application installed or that it is not installed in the default location where the Korn shell looks for it.

Error: ksh sendmail not found: Solution

To fix this problem, we must first check if the Sendmail is on the machine. We can do this by entering the following command into a terminal window:

$ which sendmail

The command will provide the location of the Sendmail binary if Sendmail is setup. If it isn’t already not setup, we’ll have to install it using the system’s package manager.

After validating that Sendmail is on the system, we may need to adjust the Korn shell setup to ensure that we can find the Sendmail application.

We may do this by adding the Sendmail binary’s location to the system’s PATH environment variable. We may accomplish this by including the following line in the shell profile:

export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/sendmail

Replace “/path/to/sendmail” with the system’s actual location of the Sendmail binary. Save the file and restart the shell to ensure that the modifications take effect.

Alternatively, when we run the Korn shell sendmail command, we may specifically give the path of the Sendmail binary. As an example:

$ /path/to/sendmail -t -i message.txt

This will launch Sendmail with the supplied path and send the email message in the “message.txt” file.
