First: Do you have a C-Compiler installed (such as gcc... see if you have a file /usr/local/bin/gcc, if not, download it from sunfreeware.com)
Then: Check that /usr/local/bin in in your path before /usr/ucb (echo $PATH)
If those are both ok, then this should work.

Solaris doesn't ship with a working C complier!, you can download the GCC compiler
from:

http://sunfreeware.com/indexintel9.html

You can download other tools from the same site as well.

Hi there,

If you have to compile an application you may have to set the following variable either in the Makefile or your environment:

CC=gcc

As the other have mentioned sunfreeware is the place to go for gcc and other useful apps.

Here is the link for the gcc compiler (C and C++ only):

ftp://sunfreeware.mirrors.tds.net/pub/sunfreeware/intel/9/gcc_small-3.4.2-sol9-intel-local.gz

Good luck,
Regards, Nisus

there is everything on my system like gcc and cc and in proper path, like
# which gcc
/usr/local/bin/gcc
# which cc
/usr/ucb/cc

Have you updated the Makefile and tried again?
Make sure /usr/local/bin is in your PATH before (!) /usr/ucb

What does "echo $PATH" reveil?

........./usr/ucb/cc:  language optional software package not installed......... by applying "make all" command
