I'm new to latex, I had recently installed TexLive2016 on CentOS 7. Now, when I try to compile my main.tex file I get several errors:

biblatex.sty file not found
acronym.sty file not found

and so on...

Where should I run texhash?

Another question: It is possible that I have two different LaTeX? So that the path is set to the older latex and not to the one I installed. How can I check that? How can I correct it?

    Welcome! You should not need to run texhash. Yes, it is possible. Yes, that is also possible. which pdflatex will tell you where the binary is. If it is something like /usr/bin/... then you are probably using CentOS packages. If it is something like /usr/local/texlive/... then you are probably using upstream's. You don't say how you installed TeX Live, so I don't know which you are trying to use. If you have both distro and upstream packages, remove whichever distribution you don't want, install a dummy package if needed, set your PATH correctly. – cfr Nov 04 '16 at 02:41

    See http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1092/how-to-install-vanilla-texlive-on-debian-or-ubuntu?s=2|0.0000 for details although obviously you'll need to adapt the instructions for your Linux distro. – cfr Nov 04 '16 at 02:43
  • You can easily have more than one latex installation. A common method to see the edition is to run which latex in a terminal. You also run texhash in a terminal. – daleif Nov 04 '16 at 20:56
