have you modified your (root) path variables in any of the shell rc files or elsewhere?
Plug the error into google: https://www.google.com/search?q=insecure+directory+in+$env{path}

you broke ssh and perhaps some other things, try to login from console and fix the permissions, and dont do it again.

Can you please guide me a little about it please? which console are you talking about and how to fix the permissions?
the console in physical sense is the keyboard and monitor connected to your PC. The permissions on a home directory, including root should at most be 770

I have contacted my provider and he is asking for the command he needs to put so it is fixed. Since im new to all this stuff ill really appreciate if you can send me the command i have to put
is the command "-q chmod -770 /"
Linux commands dont start with "-" dash
There is no - "dash" in front of Octal-Mode permissions specifications.
Besides manual page on chmod: https://linux.die.net/man/1/chmod , there are many resources online that explain what options chmod takes and provide examples, i.e. https://mason.gmu.edu/~montecin/UNIXpermiss.htm
By specifying "/" forward-slash you will only change permissions of the root of your directory tree, incorrectly.
I cant give you a command to fix your system because I dont know how broken it is. Normally I would login via console/IPMI/etc and look around before running anything.
I am guessing that you need "chmod -R 770 /root" or even better "chmod -R 750 /root". Again, without seeing what is there now - no guarantees that this will not make things worse.
good luck
P.S. you may want to start from scratch, rather than keep fixing things that you may have broken.
