Sounds like you don't have your posix environment fully installed. Check to
see if you have the /bin directory - that's where all the links are kept
that link shell commands to MPE programs. (/bin is off the root; also look
for the /dev and /etc directories also... if you don't have any of those,
then perhaps at some point you reloaded the system and didn't restore your
POSIX files... or they were never installed correctly).
