[Tex/LaTex] How to set path for texstudio in Ubuntu

installingtexlivetexstudio

I installed texlive-full in my unbutu 14.04 64 bit by the command

sudo apt-get install texlive-full

It is installed in the folder /usr/share/texlive. Then I download texstudio.deb and install it. After install, I open a .tex file, build it and got the error.

Make sure that you have installed a (La)TeX distribution e.g. MiKTeX or TeX Live, and have set the correct paths to this distribution on the command configuration page.
A (La)TeX editor like TeXstudio cannot work without the (La)TeX commands provided by such a distribution.

I opened the configure path but I don't know how to set them. Please help me to fix it. Thanks all

Too long for a comment. This is what that image with the build commands normally looks like (this is from TS 2.11)

Instead of typing this by hand, one could just install TS 2.11, and use it. This has the correct build informations. Then purge TS 2.11 and install TS 2.12. Purging does not delete your local TS configuration, and voila, they survive for TS 2.12.

Even further, here is the Tools/Commands list from the generated texstudio.ini from my system
