./configure -prefix ~ # returns a problem on server
Hi all,
First, thanks for being there to help out us newbies. I'm not a programmer but I've picked up a little experience navigating around Linux systems over the years in a terminal/console window and am able to do a few basic tasks. I've been trying to follow a tutorial here to get Unison, a file synchronization and back up tool, installed on my host provider. I got past the first stage yesterday and successfully have SSH running, now I'm trying to install Ocaml but have a problem. When I type: Code:
$ ./configure -prefix ~ Code:
Configuring for a x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu ... Code:
$ which gcc Code:
/usr/bin/gcc Code:
$ gcc -v Code:
permission denied Please let me know if you want any more info. My host provider is HawkHost in case anyone knows them. Really appreciate any help, thanks all. |
My host provider uses CentOS, I just tried:
Code:
yum install gcc Code:
CRITICAL:yum.cli:Config Error: Error accessing file for config file:///etc/yum.conf |
Jeezus that was a great guess of mine :D. Since no-one replied yet I tried my host provider Hawk Host who are always really helpful I have to say. Access to their gcc compiler is disabled by default, hence the "permission denied" output.
I'm surprised no-one here replied with that suggestion as I know absolutely nothing about compiling on linux but it seems like I was on the right track. |
