Problem Compiling
 
I just installed Ubuntu 5.10 onto my computer and I am having troubles with compiling programs. I added extra repositories and installed a tool chain package I found and the newest version of GCC and and G++. When running "./configure" I get the following error message.
Code:
checking for C++ compiler default output... configure: error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
What does this mean and how would I go about fixing it? Thankyou for any help in advance.

There should be more detailed error messages in config.log Post the end of it here.

Also you are not the first one with this probem: http://www.google.ca/search?q=%22C%2...te+executables

I hope this is what your looking for.

Hmm, I'm not seeing any error messages in there. Can you compile a basic helloword.cpp program? What are the permissions on the directory you're compiling in? Are you sure you have libstdc++?
