PATH=/whaterver is not a good idea. its quite possibly why you lost your /usr/local/bin:/bin:etc in the first place.
Set you path like this,
export PATH=$PATH:/new/path

exporting it will make it avail to all child processes, and the other part appends the needed absolute path you your current one.

This still will not make it perm, when the parent that exported the path environ dies, so will that setting. TO make it permanent, edit your ~/.bash_profile or whatver you particular flavor of *nix uses to set local settings.
