The above line indicate you did not install correctly.

You should "make install" as root.

And generally, you should run "./configure --..." and "make"
as a non-priviledged user (i.e. not root), although this does
not introduces errors.  Doing the "make install" not as root
messes up the privilegdes:  some commands needs to owned by
root and have the be setuid bit set.
