Whic gives you a fourth option. The only additional file above those required to run glpsol is glpk.h. You can extract this from 4.40 source distribution and place it in your include pathy.

That may be a better place to ask. I notice the available packages include gcc4.7, there are many questions and answers about installing that, see [4]https://forums.aws.amazon.com/search.jspa?objID=f30&q=gcc&x=14&y=14. Given that the AWS package is GLPK4.40, you may be better installing gcc with help from the above forum if needed, then obtaining the latest glpk (4.48) and compiling it, with help from this group and the wiki as needed. A final option is that rpm packages can be installed on AWS. You could obtain any rpm for 4.48 and install that. -- Nigel Galloway [5][email protected] On Thu, Apr 11, 2013, at 08:06 AM, David Curran wrote: Hi Has anyone used glpk on an Amazon ec2 micro instance?

I could be doing something stupid with linux rather than linux on ec2. But any help you can provide me on how to get a "hello world" glpk example running on amazon ec2 linux would be great.
