Rails, Redis, Linux bin file error

i am attempting to get redis-server running in my rails app. i am following this post here (the version numbers are a little outdated) but it seems from the error i am getting 

@rob:~/Work/boogle[master]$ redis-server
bash: /usr/local/bin/redis-server: No such file or directory

that the file isnt being found! as you can see its looking for it in /usr/local/bin/ the post i am following suggested that i cp src/redis-server src/redis-cli /usr/bin which suggests that /usr/local/bin/ and /usr/bin are different bin files is it safe to just cp src/redis-server src/redis-cli /usr/local/bin i am a little scared to mess with the bin files, and creating a 'redis-ception ' by running redis-server in the home dir.

I have a bad feeling like my bin or .bashrc file is F'd, any suggestions?

The guide asks you to install redis via the source.

You don't need this.

You can simply install redit with apt :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rwky/redis
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install redis-server
