SUN Studio Installation and C Compiler
Hi all,
I am looking for C compiler on UltraSPARC server with SUN Solaris 9.I have downloaded SUN Studio 11 (studio11-sol-sparc.tar.bz2) and install it using batch installer.The installation process shows agreement page while the installation is continuing (I guess). However, the process tooks too long (more than 10 hours) and I forced to break the process and verify that the cc command is not found in the installed directory.
I need to compile c program using "cc" command. My question is:
1)Did I download the correct software for c compiler?
2)What could possibly wrong with my installation process? How to verify?
3)Is SUN Studio 11 chargable? What other alternative do I have to compile c program (I do not need other compiler or IDE)?
Thank you.
Rgrds,
TTKong

No, bash from sunfreeware.com is not SUNWbash. We already tested it. It will not work. You have to get SUNWbash from Solaris compantion CD. I am suprise to see you don't have SUNWbash with Solaris 9. It becomes default in Solaris 9 and 10. Did you install Solaris 9 using Development or Entire Distribution option?
Beside Solaris companion CD, you can download Solaris companion CD image or individual package at http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/freeware/
