Hi, 1)Verify Installation: First, ensure that you have properly installed the AWS Copilot CLI (copilot). You can do this by following the installation instructions provided by AWS in their documentation. Make sure to install it according to your operating system.

2)Check PATH: After installation, verify that the directory where the copilot executable is located is included in your system's PATH environment variable. The PATH variable tells the shell where to look for executable files when you type a command. If copilot is installed but not in your PATH, the shell won't be able to find it.

You can check your PATH variable by running: echo $PATH

If the directory containing copilot is not listed in the output, you'll need to add it to your PATH. You can do this by adding the appropriate directory to your shell configuration file (e.g., .bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, etc.).

For example, if copilot is installed in /usr/local/bin, you would add the following line to your .bashrc or .bash_profile file: export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

3)Restart Shell or Source Configuration: After making changes to your shell configuration file, restart your terminal session or source the configuration file to apply the changes. For example: source ~/.bashrc

4)Verify Installation Again: Once you've updated your PATH and restarted your shell, verify that copilot is accessible by running: copilot --version

This command should output the version of AWS Copilot CLI if it's correctly installed and accessible.

If you continue to encounter issues, double-check the installation steps and ensure that you're following the instructions provided by AWS for your specific operating system.
