Hello Steve,

That is exactly what I got.

'c++: No input file' does show up.

I am not sure I am understanding this correctly.  When I am in the 
terminal and put in 'vi.bashrc' I get:

# .bashrc

# User specific aliases and functions

alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'

# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
         . /etc/bashrc
fi

Like what?

Hello Steve,


Here the results:


<excerpt>[root@pcp837989pcs root]# echo $PATH


You should get something like.

/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin

</excerpt>

That is exactly what I got.


<excerpt>Having done that type:

'c++' from anywhere to see if 'c++: No input file' shows up. If it
does there should be no reason for it not to find c++.  In should case
it might be a problem with the Makefile.

</excerpt>

'c++: No input file' does show up.


<excerpt>Lets try building this rpm a little differently for you. As
su:


rpm -Uvh mol-0.9.65-1.src.rpm

rpm -Uvh mol-kmods-0.9.65-1.src.rpm

</excerpt>

[root@3-98-237-24-cable src]# rpm -Uvh mol-0.9.65-1.src.rpm

   1:mol                   
########################################### [100%]

[root@3-98-237-24-cable src]# rpm -Uvh mol-kmods-0.9.65-1.src.rpm

   1:mol-kmods             
########################################### [100%]


<excerpt>Now go to /usr/src/rpm/SPECS in there should be a .spec file
for both mol and mol-kmods.  To build them we:


rpm -ta --clean mol.spec

rpm -ta --clean mol-kmods.spec

</excerpt>

[root@3-98-237-24-cable SPECS]# rpm -ta --clean mol.spec

mol.spec: No such file or directory

[root@3-98-237-24-cable SPECS]# ls

mol-kmods.spec  mol.spec

[root@3-98-237-24-cable SPECS]# rpm -ta --clean mol-kmods.spec

mol-kmods.spec: No such file or directory


<excerpt>Just out of curiosity does that problem occur for other
command line utils? For example does 'vi .bashrc' in your ~? 

</excerpt>

I am not sure I am understanding this correctly.  When I am in the
terminal and put in 'vi.bashrc' I get:


# .bashrc


# User specific aliases and functions


alias rm='rm -i'

alias cp='cp -i'

alias mv='mv -i'


# Source global definitions

if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then

        . /etc/bashrc

fi
