Error running kibana for first time after install

Hello,

I have just fresh installed Ubuntu on my laptop so i can follow along a book on python data engineering. All i have installed so far is elasticsearch and kibana. When attempting to run kibana for the first time i get the error below.

    usr/share/kibana$ bin/kibana
    fs.js:114
        throw err;
        ^

    Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/usr/share/kibana/config/kibana.yml'
        at Object.openSync (fs.js:443:3)
        at Object.readFileSync (fs.js:343:35)
        at readYaml (/usr/share/kibana/node_modules/@kbn/apm-config-loader/target/utils/read_config.js:27:52)

        at exports.loadConfiguration (/usr/share/kibana/node_modules/@kbn/apm-config-loader/target/config_loader.js:33:38)
        at module.exports (/usr/share/kibana/src/apm.js:47:15)
        at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/share/kibana/src/cli/dist.js:21:18)
        at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:778:30)
        at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:789:10)
        at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:653:32)

I have tried the solution from this thread: Kibana Upgrade to 7.8 : FATAL CLI ERROR Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory but i had no success.

The installation instructions in the book were exactly the same as the ones in here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/deb.html.

Any advice to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

What version of Kibana and Ubuntu are you using?
