shrike 0 Posted November 16, 2002 actually it's funny...I am a total newbie to Linux so if any Linux expert stumbles over this answer I claim indemnity. Â I had the exact same problem during the setup of my Linux OFP server and if I got it right it simply means you haven't installed the GCC library (C for Linux) including the program uudecode which I guess BIS uses to somehow archive the ofp server files...*cough*...Is this any close to being correct? Since I am no friend of manuals it took me a while to install gcc...and I am sorry but I forgot how I did it so I can' tell you. But it works like a charm now :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hrbeing 0 Posted November 16, 2002 uudecode is usually part of the 'sharutils' package (shell archive utilities). So, if you are using RedHat or SuSE you should probably get the sharutils.rpm package, or for other distributions, whichever one is similar. Nicholas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kegetys 2 Posted November 16, 2002 GCC is the GNU C/c++/etc compiler, which you really should install anyway not just because of the ofp server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
