View software installation path

Very simple,

1. view the File Installation path

Whereis MySQL

Since there are more than one place for software installation, let's first check all the paths (addresses) for File Installation ).

MySQL is used as an example. For example, if I have installed MySQL, but I don't know where the files are installed and in which folders, you can use the following command to view all the file paths.

Enter at the terminal:

Whereis MySQL

Press enter. If MySQL is installed, the File Installation address is displayed.

2. query the path of the running file (Folder address)

If you only need to query the address of the file running file, you can directly use the following command (or take MYSQL as an example ):

Which MySQL

Terminal display:

Which MySQL
