echo $PATH
You will see a set of semicolon delimited directory path names. Perhaps something like /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin
The configure script is looking in each of these locations for an acceptable C compiler. Either you do not have a C compiler at all in one of these locations, or the compiler it found was not acceptable for some reason. Typical compiler names are cc or gcc. You might try and type the command
type cc
or
type gcc
or
whereis cc
to see if you have a C compiler installed. It all depends on what operating system you are using. I know you said linux, but I don't use linux, and am not familiar with how it might be configured. But it would sound very strange to me if you do not have a C compiler installed.

hi there,
I've tried to install mysql-3.23.55.tar.gz but failed. Firstly, I've created directory /home/users/mysql and add group for mysql. Those are the command that I've used previously:
shell>groupadd mtsqlid shell>mkdir /home/users shell>useradd -d /home/users/mysql -s /bin/false -g mysqlid mysqlid
Then i decompressed mysql-3.23.55.tar.gz into /home/users/mysql and one new
directory called mysql-3.23.55 created.
According to www.mysql.com, mysql installation, i need to run ./configure --prefix=/usr/mysql but this is the message i've got.
configure:error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
then when i tried to run this command
shell>scripts/mqsql_install_db
it also give me an error that is no such file or directory. I really don' t know what to do. Please do help me.
Frankly speaking, i'm still new to linux and mySQL.
