Problem installing Zoneminder

Post by Paul »

Hi,

I am trying to install Zoneminder on a box running fedora core 2. If I run the configure script, it says" no accaptable C compiler found in $PATH", although I installed GCC with yum. Checking the configure.log does not help much as it only repeats this output.

The complete command I run is:

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/bin --with-webdir=/bigboy/website/www/html/zm --with-cgidir=/bigboy/website/www/cgi-bin --with-ffmpeg=/usr/bin --with-mp3lame=/usr/lib

Any suggestions?

Many thanks,
Paul

Is gcc actually installed on your path? In other words if you do

Code: Select all

gcc -v
do you get something back?

Also bear in mind that you need a C++ compiler. So it's actually g++ you need to test but I think gcc never comes without g++ anyway.

From my expierience with FC2 you also need a lot of the devel packages and not just the plain ones for zoneminder

Dear Phil,

If I do

Code: Select all

gcc -v
I get back "command not found". When I do

Code: Select all

locate gcc
I get so many different directories that I am confused about the right directory to set the path to. Any suggestions on where fedora puts gcc?

Many thanks,

Newbie Paul
