assistant: command not found

Have You tried accessing the binary with the full path?

Maybe Your $PATH variable doesn't contain the default paths? echo $PATH should give something like:

[root@server ~]# echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin

If it's empty, You may set the PATH variable with this command

export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin"

On CentOS possible default full paths are:

/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin/assistant - from package: qt3-devel
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin/assistant - from package: qt3-devel
/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/assistant - from package: qt5-assistant
/usr/lib64/qt4/bin/assistant - from package: qt-x11
/usr/lib/qt4/bin/assistant - from package: qt-x11

You may install the required package with command yum install {package}

On Debian possible default full paths are:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/assistant - from package: qt4-dev-tools
/usr/bin/assistant - from package: qtchooser
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/assistant - from package: qttools5-dev-tools

You may install the required package with command apt-get install {package}
