i cant compile ( no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH )

[4mIRC]

dear all
i tried many times to install the new UnralIrcd
but unfortunately still cant install it
always stuck here ./Config
and the error is :
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl.exe... no
configure: error: in `/home/***/unrealircd-4.0.15':
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

regarding the Do you want to enable remote includes?
i tried with both remote yes and no , same error.

i added new user with this commands
1- useradd user
2- passwd user
3- New password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is based on a dictionary word
Retype new password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

then logged to the user shell and typed these commands
1- wget --no-check-certificate --trust-server-names https://www.unrealircd.org/downloads/un ... est.tar.gz
2- tar xzvf unrealircd-4.0.15.tar.gz
3- cd unrealircd-4.0.15
4- ./Config


in the root i already installed the gcc and here to version
[root@server ~]# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-18)

i used to type
yum install gcc*
and
yum install gcc
both are installed

what can i do more to install it?

thanks and regards

On Debian I would use

Code: Select all

apt-get install build-essential

However you are on.. redhat? centos? You didn't specify. Anyway, try something like this:

Code: Select all

yum install gcc gcc-c++ make openssl-devel

If that didn't work, hopefully someone else can jump in. Also config.log may contain clues (it's a huge file, search for "no acceptable C compiler found" without quotes, and look at 50 lines before and after it)

thanks Syzop
its centos

any help?

[Syzop]

So if you run 'gcc --version' from the same account that you are running './Config' it looks good?
Just making sure you don't have any non-root restrictions or something. Some machines have it so normal users cannot execute 'gcc' for security reasons (I know, it's ridiculous). Usually you need to put the user in some kind of group then.

[4mIRC]

no i cant use the command in the user shel
[ircd@server ~]$ gcc --version
-bash: /usr/bin/gcc: Permission denied
[ircd@server ~]$

any help to fix this problem
how to put it in group?

regards

[Syzop]

First do this to figure out the group that is needed:

Code: Select all

$ ls -al --dereference /usr/bin/gcc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root src 832120 Dec 25  2014 /usr/bin/gcc

The group is the second row, in this example it's src

Now you need to add your ircd user to the group src. You run this as root:

Code: Select all

useradd -G src ircd

Then logout as the user ircd and log back in (this in important, only then the group change takes affect).

[4mIRC]

Dear Syzop
i did the commands and here the results

[root@server ~]# ls -al --dereference /usr/bin/gcc
-rwxr-x--- 2 root compiler 264016 Mar 21 2017 /usr/bin/gcc
[root@server ~]# groupadd -G src ircd
groupadd: invalid option -- 'G'
Usage: groupadd [options] GROUP

Options:
-f, --force exit successfully if the group already exists,
and cancel -g if the GID is already used
-g, --gid GID use GID for the new group
-h, --help display this help message and exit
-K, --key KEY=VALUE override /etc/login.defs defaults
-o, --non-unique allow to create groups with duplicate
(non-unique) GID
-p, --password PASSWORD use this encrypted password for the new group
-r, --system create a system account
-R, --root CHROOT_DIR directory to chroot into

no -G found

thanks

[Syzop]

Sorry I meant

Code: Select all

useradd -G groupname ircd

So useradd not groupadd.

I hope that helps because this is going to be my last post in this topic (this is more about general Linux help and not UnrealIRCd)

[4mIRC]

[root@server ~]# useradd -G groupname ircd
useradd: group 'groupname' does not exist
[root@server ~]# useradd -G src ircd
useradd: user 'ircd' already exists
[root@server ~]# useradd -G ircd src
useradd: user 'src' already exists

i tried all the way it says already exists

[Syzop]

Try:

Code: Select all

usermod -a -G src ircd

Sorry I'm used to editing /etc/group directly, but suggesting that to you didn't sound like a good idea

[4mIRC]

sorry for that
i did the command nothing happen
[root@server ~]# usermod -a -G src ircd
[root@server ~]#

then i tried in user to compile
same error no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

it makes me mad i miss to install the UnrealIRCd again to test the new version

[Gottem]

-rwxr-x--- 2 root compiler 264016 Mar 21 2017 /usr/bin/gcc

Syzop's group src was just an example, you're supposed to replace it with whatever your system actually shows. In your case it's compiler, so run:

Code: Select all

usermod -a -G compiler ircd

Of course, as he pointed out this is operating system stuff. And you should really know your OS before trying to set up an IRCd. =]

[4mIRC]

Thanks alot Syzop and Gottem

finally installed

[root@server ~]# usermod -a -G compiler ircd
[root@server ~]# useradd -G ircd compiler
useradd: group compiler exists - if you want to add this user to that group, use -g.
[root@server ~]# useradd -g ircd compiler
