configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH HELP!!

i AM trying to install TOp for SOlaris 8. I get the same error message as I did when I tried to install other apps. Please help. I am somewhat of a newbie. Below is the output from ./configure

I also have usr/ccs/bin in my path as well.

hi,


did you try to check cc or gcc on system? anyway the best thing to do is to download the package for top and gcc and all the thing that you need, you can just run pkgadd. visit this site.

good luck.

I actually figured it out. I created a CC variable to point to the working gcc compiler. I had to do a find / -name gcc in order to find it. Oh well, slowly but surely...
Thanks for your response,
Casey

put /usr/local/bin in your $PATH variable,
hope this helps
