I installed SQL Anywhere 16. How to solve the following issue?

$ cat ~/.bashrc 
export SQLANYWHERE_HOME=/Applications/SQLAnywhere16/System
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SQLANYWHERE_HOME/lib64:$SQLANYWHERE_HOME/lib32:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
export DYLD_BIND_AT_LAUNCH=1
export PATH=$PATH:$SQLANYWHERE_HOME/bin64:$SQLANYWHERE_HOME/bin32


$ python3

I have the same problem. I have sourced that .sh file and both 32 and 64 bit are installed and available in the path. Though it doesn't work. Any ideas? Mac os X 10.10

Did you execute the command in the way Graeme Perrow proposed?
