Although the question doesn't explicitly say so, I'm going to guess that the OP is running OSX (as assumed in other answers).
The fundamental problem here is that OSX applications don't read .bashrc or .profile like the shell does. There are several ways to modify the PATH variable for Mac Applications, as described on this stack exchange question. I used the wrapper-script answer by Rene to set my environment for Sage. It has the advantage of providing the same environment to Sage.app that you would expect at the command line, and it works across all notebooks (unlike above answers that modify PATH from within the notebook).
Create a file at /Applications/Sage-version.app/Contents/MacOS/Sage.sh with the following text:
#!/bin/bash if [[ -x $HOME/.profile ]]; then source $HOME/.profile fi exec "`dirname \"$0\"`/Sage" "$@"
Make the file executable
chmod +x /Applications/Sage-*.app/Contents/MacOS/Sage.sh
Edit /Applications/Sage-version.app/Contents/Info.plist. Change the CFBundleExecutable
to point to the wrapper script
<key>CFBundleExecutable</key> <string>Sage.sh</string>
Notify LaunchServices that the Info.plist has changed, either by restarting or by running
/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -v -f /Applications/Sage-*.app
This solution will also address errors running other cell interpreters, such as the LaTeX 'PDFLaTeX does not seem to be installed' error.
