what are you doing and for what to configure you are using ./configure?
what is the error message?
be specific so that we can help you.
simply saying ./configure doesn't work doesn't serve any purpose.

You're not in the correct directory. You would have probably decompressed a file which would have created a directory. You will need to change directory into that folder before using that command.

What program are you trying to install and have you checked if it's available in your package manager first?

are you sure that you are in correct directory?
if yes, perhaps this directory doesn't have file named "configure".
