checking whether the c compiler (gcc ) works... no

[Duo]

I ran the script from cygwin, the gcc was finished decompressing and I got this:

ERROR CONFIGURING GCC

I'm guessing that * is the problem. I have djgcc installed, too. Is that conflicting? When I tried a precompiled version of pspdev, typing in make got me a "Borland make 4.0 message", so I tried the toolchain.

I opened the C:\cygwin\tmp\pspdev\gcc-4.0.2\build-psp\config.log and found:

Code: Select all

checking for gcc
configure:1921: checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works
configure:1937: gcc -o conftest    conftest.c  1>&5

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:

#line 1932 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"

main(){return(0);}

I tried running just ./toolchain.sh -g and got the same thing. I appreciate any assistance. Thank you!

Edit- I found cygwin/usr/lib to be empty? The default install with cygwin was really weird on my computer, I had to install the libs seperately.

I installed the lib and it still doesn't work. I'm stuck. All the source code and installation stuff is in the cygwin/tmp directory, but I can't compile anything.

Did you install the whole dev part of cygwin?

By default cygwin doesn't install the dev tools, which are required for building the pspdev toolchain.

I forgot to mention I got this warning at 99% install that said:

gtk-query-immodules-2.0.exe - Unable To Locate Component
This application has faild to start because cygx11-6.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

This was at etc/postinstall/gtk2-x11.sh. I thought it wasn't important because I thought postinstall meant that everything was already installed?

[Duo]

Dev was installed, the .dlls werent. Cygwin didn't say x11 was necessary when I was installing it, I thought everything for gcc to run was in default. Then I went to the x11 and and tried to download the xorg-x11-bin-dlls and was hit with "gcc, g++, every other part of cygwin, will not work unless you download.." and it gave me a list of files. I'm downloading the dll package now. I have a dial modem so it will take a while, but my problem is probably fixed.

This page was helpful in finding out a lot of problems with cygwin installation:
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.htm

This will probably fix most cygwin related problems people have, clearing up the board a little. It might be helpful if someone of importance put it where people could see it more easily. Reading install log files helps too.

I got past that error, but got another one. When compiling newlibs, there was this error at the end.

Unknown hostname?

[danzel]

The Unknown Hostname is most likely caused by DNS.
I dont have a cygwin set up here to play with, but on a normal linux system the nameservers are in /etc/resolv.conf with lines like:
nameserver 10.15.10.111

You could try add your nameservers in there (run ipconfig in a cmd prompt in windows to find them out)

Also check that your dns works in cygwin (ping www.google.com)

ping www.google.com in cygwin works okay, 0% data lost. etc/resolv.conf doesn't exist in cygwin. There is bash.bashrc DIR_COLORS group hosts hosts.allow hosts.deny networks passwd profile protocols services termcap. I'm using AOL dial connection, which may cause a problem, it usually does. My ipconfig shows
