Can i install and run programs from inside chroot directory?

I execute the command but still get 'command not found' when i try to execute nix-env.

Did you try logging out after you installed it?

If that doesn't help, what is the output of these commands?:

Code: Select all

ls -al ~/.nix-profile
ls -al /nix

This is the output:

Code: Select all

lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 42 фев 13 10:39 /home/user/.nix-profile -> /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/user/profile

Code: Select all

drwxr-xr-x  4 user  root 4096 фев 13 10:39 .
drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 фев 13 10:39 ..
drwxr-xr-x 35 user  user  4096 фев 13 10:39 store
drwxr-xr-x  4 user  user  4096 фев 13 10:39 var

I'm not sure what the problem is, but it's possible that Nix doesn't properly install itself on Debian. Or maybe the installation instructions are incomplete.

I found a possible clue, though:

At this stage, nix is properly installed on your system, but some extra configuration is required, especially to activate the “profiles” feature.

I found that here: Working with profiles : create several user environments
