Getting an error message while loading linux OS

I am getting a following error message:

"Error found when loading /home/user/.profile:

/home/user/.profile: line 30: export =': not a valid identifier /home/user/.profile: line 30:export: home/user/bin:/home/user/.local/bin:/home/user/.local/bin:/usr/ local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/ga mes:/snap/bin':not a valid identifier

As a result a session will not be configured correctly. You should fix the problem as soon as feasible."

After using shellcheck.net I corrected both .profiles and .bashrc so it gives no error msg anymore. Now, when I restart my PC, I get the following msg: " /home/user/.profile line 16: /home/user/.bashrc: Permission denied. " When I open a terminal the first line is:

bash: /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion: Permission denied

Any ideas on how to proceed ?

Many thanks in advance !

open the file /home/user/.profile in an editor, go to line 30 and fix it there. - KamilCuk
Hello KamilCuk: I just checked the line. Here it is: "export PATH = "$HOME/bin:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" .What should I change there ? - ViktoriiaU
There is a space around =. Copy the content of .profile file into shellcheck.net and fix the mistakes. - KamilCuk
Hey, many thanks for your recommendations ! I followed it and corrected both .profile and .bashrc, there were a lot of corrections. Now, when I restart my PC I get one error message instead: /home/user/.profile: /home/user/.bashrc: Permission denied. Both files have no errors when I shellcheck them ;) - ViktoriiaU
Looks to me like a system configuration problem. First of all, you should probably go to another site with this, since this is the programmers Q&A, and the problem is not about that. Try this one serverfault.com. Second of all, I can see that you do not have much experience with linux. Perhaps you should start with a friendlier distribution, like ubuntu or fedora, which won't make you configure the login by hand. - Morse

So it looks like I resolved the issue:

I removed the line corresponding to export PATH to .bashrc file and removed in from .profiles and the mistake has gone.

However I still have the line on top of my terninal:

bash: /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion: Permission denied
