Re: [newbie] make: command not found
you have either of the following scenarios: 1) you dont have the make utility. try to look for it in the following directories /usr/bin /usr/local/bin if its not still there then install the package (if you dont have the installation cd then go to rpmfind.net adn search for 'make'). 2) you have it and dont have execute permissions. if this is the case then change the file attrributes by using the chmod command (i think you have to be root). chmod 766 /location/of/the/file/make 3) make exists in your system with the appropriate permission but isnt in your path. try adding the following in your .bashrc file: export PATH=$PATH: or if make is (usually ) installed in /usr/bin , reverse the order of $PATH and the directory containing make.

Re: [newbie] make command not found - where is it?
as I remember it, in 7.0 unless you did the "developer" (as opposed to server or desktop/workstation) you might not have gotten all the packages. I believe you can upgrade from the cds.

Re: [newbie] make command not found - where is it?
This means that you haven't installed the "make-*.i586.rpm", which should be included on your CD(s).

Re: [newbie] "make" command not found
For some silly reason Mandrake 8's installation doesn't install the packages needed for compiling. Go to rpmfind.net and look for a Mandrake package called make.

[newbie] "make" command not found
Hi everyone, I just recently installed 7.1. I'm trying to install a program that requires me to run "make && make install" but I'm told that the "make" command is not found. I think this might be because I couldn't insert the second cd, "installation sources cd", during installation. My cdrom just wouldn't open!! What can I do about this now? I will obviously need this command and whatever else I'm missing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Oren _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

This is not what I have experienced. I can run make as user without a problem. There must be something wrong with your permissions on it. Make here is in /usr/bin/make As root try this one: chmod a+x /usr/bin/make and then see if you can "make" it work.
