Likely you're Emacs's exec-path is not properly configured. Using a package like https://github.com/purcell/exec-path-from-shell will probably solve this issue for you.

That didn't fix it sadly. I noticed that if I run an eshell I get the problem, but with shell I don't. Does this help narrow it down? What mode does the compilation window use?
