Can't install PHP 5.1.4

Post by Ree »

I have tried installing PHP 5.1.4 on my VPS (currently running 4.3), and when configuring it, I get the following error: "no acceptable cc found in $PATH". I'm pretty new to Linux, and from what I can gather it seems like a C compiler is missing, right? How come? How do I solve this?

Install gcc. It might be called gnu-cc in your package manager. If you're missing that you're probably missing a lot of other dev tools.

gcc
makeutils
binutils
g++
gcj
