Hi Kinux:

basicly, the installation method of sofeware in the Unix and Linux system is similar! ( I mean tarball method )

you can easily using the following commands to install sofeware on your solaris:

./configure
make
make install

I think you should view the INSTALL or README file in your umcompressed directory.  Good Luck !

Hi Vbird,

Thank you for your teaching & encouragement.
I will try it later.

Keep in touch.

Hi Vbird,

I have tried but it doesn't work.
I download the compiler gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz
then i gunzip gcc-2.95.3.tar.gz and tar xvf gcc-2.95.3.tar.
Then i run "./configure" the result.
# ./configure
Configuring for a i386-pc-solaris2.8 host.
Created "Makefile" in /usr/gcc-2.95.3 using "mh-frag"
./configure: cc: not found
*** The command 'cc -o conftest -g   conftest.c' failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.
then run "make" the result
# make
make: not found
What I can do.

Thanks

Are there any cc compiler in your solaris system?
you can use: " find / -name cc " to find out the cc compiler !
because Linux and Unix are written by c language! thus, many systems have c compiler.  i think there should have cc in your system, and you should find it!  can you tell me: how do you install solaris?
by the way, you must put the path way of cc when you install your gcc software.

Hi Vbird,

Thank you first.

I've tried to find the "cc" with command "find /-name cc"
the result:
# find /-name cc
find: cannot open /-name: No such file or directory
find: cannot open cc: No such file or directory

But i guess the path of the cc file maybe
"/usr/ccs" and in "ccs" there are two files "bin & lib" and lots of files in these two files.

What can i do to put the path way of cc to install GCC.

Hi!
This command {find / -name cc}, there have a space between [/] and [-name].

[kinux]

[kinux]

Hi,

Ifind it.

# find / -name cc
/usr/ucb/cc

What is the next.

thanks

[VBird]

Oh!

you may add the path to your PATHway:
PATH="/usr/ucb:$PATH"

or link this software in /bin:
ln -s /usr/ucb/cc /bin/cc

and then try ./configure again!

[kinux]

Hi,

How to add the path. To which file?  I mean config which file?

thanks

Still the same after add the link.
?

Hi:

You should find a "working c language".  Because your error message shows the /usr/ucb/cc can't work in your system.  I don't know why??
