Grammatically the FIRST one is correct.
LONG TIME specifies a period of time and therefore it will come with HAS, HAVE or HAD.
DID/DIDN'T is for something that happens at a given time. Therefore, you cannot say I DIDN'T SEE YOU FOR A LONG TIME. You can say I DIDN'T SEE YOU WHEN I LOOKED FOR YOU (i.e. at the time I wanted to see you).
You can say I WAS AT TRAIN STATION AT 10AM (a given moment) or I HAVE BEEN AT TRAIN STATION FROM 8AM TILL 10AM FOR 2 HOURS (i.e. a period of time).
Hope this helps.

the first is right, because "have been" -it's a result and It's Present Perfect tense
did-it's Past Simple Tense, the action happend in the past
