I recently installed FreeBSD 6.1, and copied many Unix files with no problems at all. However when I try to run the C compiler which worked fine with Unix, I get the error message '/usr/bin/cc Exec format error Binary file not executable'. I tried changing permissions and owner with no change. Any suggestions or won't the unix C compiler not work with FreeBSD?
FreeBSD has its own cc. It sounds like you copied cc from some other system over it. FreeBSD can run binaries from some other systems, but it's usually not as simple as just copying them over.
