Make sure you installed NS correctly. How ? east download one TCl file which does not run nam. If you do not know nam is just for depicting the algorithm graphically. After download and run TCL file ( As I said download nam free or at least your self disable that line or make them as comment on your TCL file .

There is some problems on running nam on 14.04 . You should download nam from here and copy the extracted file in to your /usr/local/bin . But I just test that for ubuntu 32 bit 14.04 .

By the way if you are new to NS2. I should tell you it not necessary to follow erlang NS2 method. If you are enough not in horry I recommend you to look at here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/ns2-version-2-34-is-too-old-wpan-802-15-4-a-4175499373/
