Nick,gcc and cc should reside in /usr/bin on a standard RedHat install, if you cannot find the files then run 'rpm -qa | grep "cc"' from the root prompt. Assuming you are running RH8, then you should see various gcc 3.x packages. If you don't see those packages then you'll need to install them and the glibc packages manually or with up2date.
As for the second failure you listed, "./configure--with-mysql" you need to put a space between ./configure and --with-mysql
You'll also need the mysql-devel package installed. Hope that helps a bit. --Tim nwoliver () attglobal net wrote:
I am brand new to the Linux OS. I need to install some type of IDS and this is the method suggested, at least to start. I have a successful Redhat installation and want to install Snort. I am, however, having problems with it. I am attempting the new 1.9.1 version and am stuck at the compiling stage. As there is no newer article available, I am using Steven Scott's Installation Manual as a go-by. I have been able to complete the SQL dependencied install, but when I get to the stage where I need to compile 1.9.1, I get this: [root@localhost snort-1.9.1]# ./configure --with-mysql creating cache ./config.cache checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for working aclocal... missing checking for working autoconf... missing checking for working automake... missing checking for working autoheader... missing checking for working makeinfo... missing checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH [root@localhost snort-1.9.1]# ./configure--with-mysql bash: ./configure--with-mysql: No such file or directory [root@localhost snort-1.9.1]# Any suggestions?
