./configure fails for all packages
On every package i try and install i get the same error -
checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. within the config.log file i get configure: failed program was: | /* confdefs.h. */ i have no idea what that means ive been running this install for about a month - with fluxbox all kinds of neet goodies - i have no idea what caused this to come about - i did run the apple software update last night - other than that i'm stumped any help would be appreciated - thx |
Can you compile short C programs? Eg:
Code:
$ echo 'main(){}' > test.c |
What do you get from the following command (in a Terminal window):
gcc --version |

For example, if you installed Xcode Tools v1.5 did you also installed the gcc3.1.pkg and the gcc2.95.2 pkg? (they are hidden in a "personalized" installation option, unchecked by default, same with the "X11SDK") . |

So what do you get for 'gcc --version' now? |

It is strange the the config.log didn't show any details on the problem (as was promised in the message from ./configure)
Please show us the output from the following command applied to the "configure" script that you have been having trouble with: grep -B20 "diagnose broken compilers" configure You didn't edit the "configure" scripts by any chance did you? |
No i didn't edit any configure scripts
root# grep -B20 "diagnose broken compilers" configure (exit $ac_status); } cat >conftest.$ac_ext <<_ACEOF /* confdefs.h. */ _ACEOF cat confdefs.h >>conftest.$ac_ext cat >>conftest.$ac_ext <<_ACEOF /* end confdefs.h. */ int main () { ; return 0; } _ACEOF ac_clean_files_save=$ac_clean_files ac_clean_files="$ac_clean_files a.out a.exe b.out" # Try to create an executable without -o first, disregard a.out. # It will help us diagnose broken compilers, and finding out an intuition |
Please try again the test suggested by B-Zero - to compile a trivial C program. Last time you tried this you got a strange error. This may be an easier thing to debug.
So please copy & paste the following commands into a Terminal window and show us the result: echo 'int main(){return 0;}' > test.c gcc test.c |

Have you installed the Developer Disc that came with your OS X?

ls -l /usr/bin/gcc-3.3 Quote:
Where did this file come from? What is in it? You could start by seeing what the 'file' command tells you about it: file /usr/local/include And look at the first part of the contents like this: hexdump -c /usr/local/include | head -20 If you conclude that this is a garbage file, then delete it. Otherwise try just moving it elsewhere. (There is no need to create a directory /usr/local/include to replace it - I don't have one on my system and everything works fine.) Then do the compile of the trivial C program again and show us the results: echo 'int main(){return 0;}' > test.c gcc test.c |
paragonconcept,
It looks you have libraries in /usr/local/lib or headers in /usr/local/include. Try renaming /usr/local to something else, for example: sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local.moved Then, as you have fink installed, please try to compile a small package with Fink, and see if it works... . |
I believe /usr/local is a directory gcc likes to check for includes/libs by default. Since it looks like paragonconcept installed something at some point which assumed /usr/local/include already existed as a directory when it didn't, the file that something installed became "include" (eg, cp myheader.h /usr/local/include assumes the directory already exists).
If it can be determined what that file should be called, it should be renamed, so /usr/local/include can be made a directory, then that original file placed inside it. |
Quote:
Since whatever program installed this header file that is currently at /usr/local/include is obviously not finding its header file (since it is looking for it inside /usr/local/include, it won't break anything to just rename that file to foo.h and get on with the main task. paragonconcept: We're waiting to hear what happens when you rename the file that is currently at /usr/local/include and retry compiling that trivial C program: mv /usr/local/include /usr/local/foo.h echo 'int main(){return 0;}' > test.c gcc test.c |

hrmmm that file has come back ..... i changed it again and it fixed my errors ......

Quote:
mkdir /usr/local/include Of course, whatever software whose installer was trying to put those files into /usr/local/include may need to be reinstalled since its files didn't make it into the folder it expected. Don't worry about this until you see a problem. |
its back.....
