Thanks for the response, Bill. I confirmed that the compiler install works fine: pvm-vangogh-94:grussell [625] /usr/local/bin/gcc hello.c -o hello pvm-vangogh-94:grussell [626] ./hello Hello World!
I also tested it with your simple program and it also compiles OK and runs. I think the problem lies in the options that CMake uses to test the AIX compile environment.

Your compiler install is bad. CMake is testing the compile of a very simple .c file and it is not work. I suspect that a simple program like this: int main() { return 0;} will not compile and link with the /usr/local/bin/gcc on your system. Create the above file and try to compile it without cmake and just gcc. It should get the same error. I would suggest that you reinstall gcc on the machine. -Bill -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
