I don't know what "downloaded the binary for ubuntu" means.

2.48 is beyond ancient.   I think it doesn't interoperate with 2.51, but
I have purged all memories of 2.48.

I suggest that you install the most recent release everywhere, or at
least some flavor of 2.53.x.

But I'm glad that the command line was illuminating.
