Can you not run yum build-essentials yum gcc -- apt-get build-essentials apt-get gcc ... You can always ftp it from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/ with wget and untar and install it from there..

trq Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Anything you can do within a shell can be done via putty, it is simply an ssh client. As oni-kun suggested, use your package manager to install gcc. One typo... apt-get build-essentials should be apt-get build-essential on Debian.

trq Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 yum and apt are package managers most commonly used on Redhat (Fedora, CentOS) & Debian (Ubuntu) respectively. Your forgot to answer the What distro are you using? question.

trq Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Then you are using CentOS. yum should be your package manager, though you will need to be the root user to execute it. For more information on yum, take a look at the manual. man yum Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/190882-gcc-c-compiler-installation-tru-putty/#findComment-1006720 Share on other sites More sharing options...
