RE: gcc loading question

This question is off topic because it's not directly a DBI issue.

However I've had experience going through such a merry-go-round on a Sun
box, so I can sympathize.

What I've found works is
- do most of the install procedure only through your local account, not root
- carefully read the steps in the README
- only do the 'make install' from root
- cd into the directory that resulted from your 'tar xvf' command and work
from there

In other words, your key problem may have been trying to be fancy and
running the configure command from a different directory. Just keep it
simple and do the make in your untar directory.

Subject: gcc loading question


I am trying to load gcc 3.3.2 in order to load and compile perl 5.8 and
finally load DBI.

I am using UNIX OS with Solaris 8 on a SunBlade 2000.



This is what I did:



# cd /local/icab11/gcc_load
# ls
gcc-3.3.2.tar
# tar xvf gcc-3.3.2.tar
# cd gcc-3.3.2

# cd /home
# mkdir objdir
# chmod 777 objdir
# cd objdir
# /local/icab11/gcc_load/gcc-3.3.2/configure --prefix=/usr

# make bootstrap
..
..

..
creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating config.h
mksh: Fatal error in reader: = missing from replacement macro reference
Current working directory /home/objdir/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/libjava
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-target-libjava' Current
working directory /home/objdir
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `bootstrap'



Can some help me?



Thanks



Oscar
