Postgresql -bash: psql: command not found

Question

I have installed PostgreSQL and it is working ok. However, when I went to restore a backup I got the error -bash: psql: command not found:

 [roo         


        

Answer 1

It can be due to psql not being in PATH

$ locate psql
/usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/psql

Then create a link in /usr/bin

ln -s /usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin/psql /usr/bin/psql

Then try to execute psql it should work.
