Tom's is a good explanation of the points which if you start channging .profile etc you need to understand (If you follow the instructions and get then exactly correct it will work however if you make a tiny mistake you have to understand the shell to fix it)

Given your path from earlier

echo $PATH
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/ local/mysql/bin:/opt/local/lib/postgresql83/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/ opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/lib/postgresql83/bin@./usr/ bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin


I think the problem is that /usr/bin is not on your path. Path entries are separated by : and you have /opt/local/lib/postgresql83/bin@./usr/ bin not /opt/local/lib/postgresql83/bin:/usr/bin i.e. you had @. rather than :

However as that path shows you have installed a lot of things inclusing macports and a non macports mysql you need to sort out the path.
From your previous comments I suspect the easiest thing would be to creat a new user in OSX and start development environment from scratch. For objective C start with no macports


I suspect the plain macports install changing path would work as well as I don't think you need those postgres paths
