          That's because from version 10 it has been renamed to pg_resetwal. And the binary is located in /usr/lib/postgresql/<version>/bin.



          The pg_xlog directory was renamed to pg_wal in version 10 and several functions, tools and options as well, to reflect that change. See Postgres 10 release notes:






          • Rename write-ahead log directory pg_xlog to pg_wal, and rename transaction status directory pg_clog to pg_xact (Michael Paquier)



            Users have occasionally thought that these directories contained only inessential log files, and proceeded to remove write-ahead log files or transaction status files manually, causing irrecoverable data loss. These name changes are intended to discourage such errors in future.




          • Rename SQL functions, tools, and options that reference xlog to wal (Robert Haas)



            For example, pg_switch_xlog() becomes pg_switch_wal(), pg_receivexlog becomes pg_receivewal, and --xlogdir becomes --waldir. This is for consistency with the change of the pg_xlog directory name; in general, the xlog terminology is no longer used in any user-facing places.
