Without seeing the code? Impossible to say. But you're doing it backwards. ~/.bashrc should be sourced FROM ~/.bash_profile. A login shell reads ~/.bash_profile only, so it's the responsibility of ~/.bash_profile to read ~/.bashrc to set up aliases, functions, shopts, and other ephemeral shell settings that can't be inherited from the environment. http://mywiki.wooledge.org/DotFiles
