Title: Problem building freetds --- gcc location

Venkat,

I assume you have root on this server.  If you don't already have gcc installed, then you might consider installing it in /usr/local.  I've not installed gcc for a while, but I think that is the default location.  Regardless of where you install it, make sure the PATH environment variable is set to look in /usr/local/bin, or whatever ~/bin dir you install it in.

 

The FreeTDS Makefile generated by the Makefile.PL will use this path to find gcc.

Subject: [freetds] Problem building freetds --- gcc location

Hi All,

I am building freetds on HP box.

Where should I install the gcc?
Is it supposed to be available in a specific location with reference to the freetds files?

When I give the "make" command, it is failing.

Looks like it is unable to detect the presence of gcc?
Do I need to set any variable to indicate the location of gcc?

Please advise

Thanks in advance
Venkat
