What base OS is your xen server? You will need to install some form of C compiler. I take it that previously you were using an rpm packaged? You can probably do a "yum install gcc" or if it is debian based "apt-get install gcc". Then try to run configure again.

[root@XenHost8 nrpe-2.14]# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32.12-0.7.1.xs6.0.2.542.170665xen (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.2 20080704

I am running Red hat 4.1 and it appears as if GCC is already installed

Lets check it's location:

Code: Select all

find / -name gcc

[brianweeks22]

[root@XenHost8 nrpe-2.14]# find / -name gcc
[root@XenHost8 nrpe-2.14]#


returned a blank line

It would seem that it is not installed, and instead the gcc output above from cat /proc/version is just listing what your kernel was compiled with. So let's try a "yum install gcc" the ./configure once it is installed with all the needed dependencies. If it errors again, send back the output and we can see how far it has gotten.

yet another roadblock


[root@XenHost8 opt]# yum install gcc

Before I give instructions on making and compiling gcc as well, it looks like yum may not have been the main package manager for RHEL 4. Try "up2date gcc"

[brianweeks22]

[root@XenHost8 opt]# up2date gcc
bash: up2date: command not found
[root@XenHost8 opt]# yum install up2date gcc
