.deb file installed, but dpkg -L library says it's not installed

up vote 0 down vote favorite I installed ballerina programming laguage by following this . I installed this by .deb file. Now when I run ballerina -v from anywhere it outputs the version correctly. I need to configure a VSCode plugin, which needs the path. But the path I entered by getting executed the command which ballerina , doesn't work (gives error as that's not the correct path). Then I tried to see where I installed the package from .deb file by following this, I'm getting an error like this. dpkg-query: package 'ballerina-platform-linux-installer-x64-0.975.1.deb' is not installed Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files, and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents Why's that ? How can I get the exact path I installed the above package ?
