If you are sure the binary/program exists, it could be that your PATH variable is broken or not set.
Just do this to set most of the common paths:

There's no risk to the above, because it just takes your current PATH variable and adds more to what is already existing.

Sometimes users take their removal drives and unplug and replug them to test what happens during the failure of a disk. However, this breaks things quite badly due to the /dev/mapper in LUKS not coming back online due to it not being closed.

I really am a Linux fan but my comments here may not show it. Although I'm quite familiar with Linux CLI to administer servers, I find Linux GUI OS's like Ubuntu at times very clunky.
