Cannot run ionic. receives "No command 'ionic' found"

I want to start using the ionic framework, but unfortunately I'm already failing on the first step.

I am running Ubuntu 13.04 and I have node v0.10.25 installed. I've installed ionic, at described in their docs:

sudo npm install -g cordova
sudo npm install -g ionic

The installation went well, no errors or warnings, but after the installation I type 

ionic

and I get the error:

No command 'ionic' found, did you mean:
 Command 'ionice' from package 'util-linux' (main)
 Command 'sonic' from package 'sonic' (universe)
ionic: command not found

I'm pretty new to ubuntu so I might have something not configured correctly, but I can't find what.

Thanks

Solution

  • Well, I found it finally.

    The ionic installation was at /home/guy/npm/bin/ionic, not at /usr/bin/ionic at it should be.

    Solved it with:

    sudo ln -s /home/guy/npm/bin/ionic /usr/bin/ionic
