Bowtie2 and Bowtie2-align error

Hi i know its just a kind of basic question but unfortunallty i have some problem with this issue,

I am using remote server, so after installing bowtie2 i run from my account as

$bowtie2

it gives out put error like 

(ERR): Expected bowtie2 to be in same directory with bowtie2-align:
/home/SXY8/azhar/bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/

but when i find the path for 

$which bowtie2

it gives 

(ERR): Expected bowtie2 to be in same directory with bowtie2-align:
/home/SXY8/azhar/bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/

but when i run 

$which bowtie2-align

it gives error like 

/usr/bin/which: no bowtie2-align in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//twoBitToFa://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-align://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-align://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/botwie2-align://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/://home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//bowtie2-2.3.2-legacy/:/home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//botwie2-align:/home/SXY8/azhar//bin:/home/SXY8/azhar//botwie2)

I tried to give them same path but still have issue. I read some related problems from internet they say that may have the issue with g++ but I have so sudo authority to install g++ or update, but still I am not clear about the problem.

If you downloaded the binary, then you should have ended up with both bowtie2-align and bowtie2. Just redownload, unpack, and copy everything to your PATH.

Hi, I am also puzzled in this problem. Ubuntu showed " Expected bowtie2 to be in same directory with bowtie2-align:/usr/local/bin/bowtie2-2.4.4-source/bowtie2-2.4.4/". So have you solve the problem? Although 4 years have passed.
