Installing perl5.14 failed

Hi,

While installing perl5.14 on my Linux box its failing with c compiler issue.

below is the error message.

PHP Code:
Use which C compiler? [cc]
./
trygccline 10cccommand not found
Uh
-ohthe C compiler 'cc' doesn't seem to be working.
./trygcc: line 25: gcc: command not found
./checkcc: line 10: cc: command not found
Uh-oh, the C compiler '
cc' doesn't seem to be working.
You need to find a working C compiler.
Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS vendor,
or for 
a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/
I cannot continue any furtheraborting
later I downloaded the gcc-6.3.0 and tried to install I have got the below error.

PHP Code:

Please post the output of the following commands, exactly as displayed, running as the root user:

Code:
echo $"PATH"
which gcc
which cc 
alias | grep cc

cc is UNIX speak for the C compiler, and some software expects it to point to a real compiler. Unless you have a very tiny Linux install like ARM, there is probably a C compiler somewhere in the /usr/bin directory.

Hi.

What distribution of Linux are you using?

Usually, the safest method for installing utilities and applications is from the distribution repository with specific tools such as apt-get (Debian, Ubuntu, etc), yum/dnf (RedHat, etc.), zypper (SuSE), and so on.

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

I think Jim meant to ask for the output from the command:
Code:
echo "$PATH"

instead of:
Code:
echo $"PATH"

Why are you building from sources instead of installing binary packages?

You're on a binary distro, you should be using binaries, so your package manager can manage your packages.

You certainly can't compile anything without a compiler, anyway, no even a compiler. (gcc has an obscure "bootstrap" process for that which people are lucky to avoid.)

I don't have yum repository configured in my Linux box, can you please point me out on how to resolve this issue. As this is killing my time Smilie and I am unable to proceed with other things

Thanks,
