Installing Apache 1.3.41 on openSUSE 10.3

I'm trying to install Apache 1.3.41 on a openSUSE 10.3 linux box. I'm compiling from source, so I try to run the command './configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache'. It starts, but then tells me 'Error: could not find any of these C compilers anywhere in yourPATH: gcc cc acc c89'.

I then tried to find out if any of those C compilers were on the machine. I ran 'find / -name gcc' and got the response '/usr/lib/gcc'. So I know gcc is on the box already.

Then I tried to add it to the PATH environmental variable, by running the commands 'PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/gcc' and 'export PATH'.

However, I'm still getting the same error. I thought I did what it was asking for. Anyone have an idea?

Thanks.

Run yast2, go to add/remove software, install gcc-c++ development package.

I don't understand. The gcc compiler is already installed at '/usr/lib/gcc'. When I dig deeper, I find the file 'cc1' in '/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/4.2.1'. Isn't this the compiler the Apache configure file is looking for?

IMHO it's not gcc compiler.
/usr/lib/gcc --version # anything? If so, then
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/lib"
./configure ...

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by:

/usr/lib/gcc --version # anything? If so, then
export PATH="$PATH:/usr/lib"
./configure ...

Inside the /usr/lib/gcc directory is the 'i586-suse-linux' directory. Inside that are two sub directories: '2.95.3' and '4.2.1'. Inside the '4.2.1' directory is the 'cc1' file.

If you're asking for a version number, I would assume it would be 4.2.1 from the folder it is in. Would you be able to clarify? Thank you again.
