Hey, I've been away from tbaMUD for a week or two while I have been working on other projects, but now I am back, and I am trying to run tbaMUD on a new VPS host I am trying out. Unfortunately, I am getting an error when I try to configure it that I never got when I tried to run it on my current host. Here are the steps I have followed so far

1. Downloaded the current tbaMUD release via SSH using wget www.tbamud.com/downloads/finish/3-tbamud-releases/6-tbamud-3-63

2. Unpacked the files

3. Changed to my tbaMUD directory and typed ./configure, and this was the result:
Code:
creating cache ./config.cache checking for less... less checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH [root@3348-3637-4240 tbamud-3.63]# sh ./configure loading cache ./config.cache checking for less... less checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH [root@3348-3637-4240 tbamud-3.63]# configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH -bash: configure:: command not found

What did I do wrong?

Okay, I think I found part of the problem. Googled the error. I am going to try "yum install gcc" and see where that gets me. Wish me luck!

Huzzah! It works. It seems that my VPS was that bare bones that it didn't even come with a C compiler. If anyone else ever runs into this kind of error, try the above solution. This works on CentoOS 5.0 x86.

Hey I saw you mention something about moving to a different codebase? Which one did you settle on and why?

Hope all is well Maximus! :)

I started replying to the last post on this thread and it turned into a novel, so I put it up on my blog. Let me just say right here though that tbaMUD is awesome, and my decision to switch was in no way a reflection of the quality of this codebase. If you are interest in reading what turned out to be a rather lengthy and self indulgent rant you can follow the link below.

The End of GOBLINS!

I'm sorry to read about the end of your mud Maximus. I always hate to hear of a mud failing.

I am actually trying to learn how to code myself, I'm looking at TBA, Gicker's D20, and also Dawn of Time, which I believe you mentioned.

So I understand what your going through, if it's a passion, then you just must persevere.
