Adding Gradle to PATH I am trying to add Gradle to my PATH.  I have used the command

export PATH=/myUsername/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin:$PATH


but when I type

gradle


I get an error "command not found."  So I went to look for .profile or .bash_profile, but neither file existed.  So I created .bash_profile, and added the line

export PATH=/myUsername/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin:$PATH


This still did not work, and I have no idea what to do from here.  When I type $PATH, I see the lines added, so I have no idea why it isn't working.  Any help would be appreciated.
The path /myusername/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin probably doesn't exist except your personal user folder is in the root of your main volume - which would be very, very uncommon on a *nix system.  

Depending on where you've installed Gradle the proper path might be:

/Users/myUsername/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin or
/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin


So change the export line to

export PATH=/Users/myUsername/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin:$PATH or  
export PATH=/Applications/gradle-2.6/bin:$PATH
