Not able to create alias in bash Sun solaris

Hello Friends,

I am facing problem in creating aliases.

I am working in SunOS 5.10. When I login in system i have been given ksh shell.

What i am doing is that ?

I am changing shell to bash then I am creating 2 alias in command prompt like:
Code:
alias deploy_dir=' cd /opt/home/deploy/'
alias log_dir=' cd /opt/home/javalogs/'

It is working fine in command prompt. But when kept these 2 cmds in shell script and executed it gives error like:
myalias.sh:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
alias deploy_dir=' cd /opt/home/deploy/'
alias log_dir=' cd /opt/home/javalogs/'

Scripts run successfully but when i tried to type:
bash-3.00$ deploy_dir
bash: deploy_dir: command not found
bash-3.00$ log_dir
bash: log_dir: command not found

Please suggest what is wrong?

Thanks
Krsna

COMMAND-NOT-FOUND(1)					    http://en.opensuse.org/Sco					      COMMAND-NOT-FOUND(1)

NAME
command-not-found - A command-not-found handler SYNOPSIS
command-not-found {binary_name} {repository} ARGUMENTS
The following arguments are required: binary_name The name of binary you are looking for. repository The name of repository for search. For most cases, use zypp DESCRIPTION
command-not-found handler is designed to tell users which package contains a missing command. The handler is integrated to bash(1) and zsh(1) shells and is not necessary to call it directly. Just type a name of the command in your favourite shell and you'll get a result. If you consider c-n-f handler useless, just add unset command_not_found_handle to your profile or remove the command-not-found package. Handler doesn't call the command-not-found binary directly, it only prints info about it. If you want to invoke it automatically, just add export COMMAND_NOT_FOUND_AUTO=1 to your bash profile. EXAMPLE
: NORMAL USAGE For example you want to try blender, because you have heard that is an amazing program. So just type blender in shell: $ blender You get the following output: The program 'blender' can be found in the following package: * blender [ path: /usr/bin/blender, repository: zypp (openSUSE 11.1-0) ] Try installing with: sudo zypper install blender bash: blender: command not found SEE ALSO
