gcc tell me "Installation problems cannot exec 'ccc0' &

[Odsi]

Hi,

I got a problem to compile on my new system Linux mandrake 8.2.
I can't understand what package is missing can you help me to resolve it ? Thanks

When i ask to compile hello.c with the commande : >make hello
I receive the message installation problem cannot exec 'ccc0' but i have install the -
gcc Package and i thought that the compiler was installed but perhaps a package steel missing.
Do someone can tell me what is the package missing ?

Best Regards.
Olivier

Try this command:

gcc -Wall hello.c -o hello

And see if it works.

II have try before to ask the question.
I think it is a installation problem but i don't know the package to install.
Regards.

It could also be the Makefile's fault

[Odsi]

Thanks for your answhere but to precise my question i will tell you :

The file i whant to compile is very simple that's the hello.c known by every beginer with an include of stdio.h and a simple printf() call. with no makefile.
I got the same answhere from gcc with every source file i whant to compile and if i ask for the two commandes :
>make hello
or > gcc hello.c -o hello
i receive the same answhere :

Installation problem cannot exec 'cpp0'.

Please tell me what is the package i need to have the cpp0 exec file called by gcc.

Thanks.
Regards.

You could have a bunk install...I'd try reinstalling gcc.

i found a website last night as we were discussing this on IRC, it looks like a problem with the way Suse8.2 installs GCC - it fails to install it all.

I cannot seem to find the site again now , i think the copy/pasted error message was put on IRC last night.

Anyway, to solve: reinstall GCC

Thanks all for your help.
I have understood the problem now.
I will find the Commercial Cd where there is the gcc compiler or download the new realease of gcc on the GNU web site.

Thanks a lot.

Out of interest, how long have you been programming C?

Options for Debugging Your Program or GCC
=========================================

GCC has various special options that are used for debugging either
your program or GCC:

...

`-print-search-dirs'
Print the name of the configured installation directory and a list
of program and library directories gcc will search--and don't do
anything else.

This is useful when gcc prints the error message `installation
problem, cannot exec cpp0: No such file or directory'. To resolve
this you either need to put `cpp0' and the other compiler
components where gcc expects to find them, or you can set the
environment variable `GCC_EXEC_PREFIX' to the directory where you
installed them. Don't forget the trailing '/'. *Note Environment
Variables::.

hth,
