GCC just needs to be installed but works fine for me the only problem is the zlib/readline/jpeg stuff which I haven't really nailed down.
Basically libz=local, libjpeg=local or readline=local has no affect. They run their checks and are skipped if you do them all together. If you do just libz=local it'll work. Barring that some quick instructions: Installing Plone 3.x on Opensolaris Why? What's wrong with Linux, Freebsd etc? Nothing, Opensolaris just provides ZFS and as far as filesystems go it's actually pretty great at making sure your data is consistent. So having your ZODB and content data on an Opensolaris store can't hurt if you are starting a new project. 1. First install GCC; System/Administration/Package Manager and search for gcc. Select and install, this will take a couple of minutes depending on the machine you are working with. 2. Depending on where you want to install Opensolaris and your permissions on the system you will do ./install.sh standalone or ./install.sh zeocluster. If you don't know the difference here is a good related overview here http://blog.redinnovation.com/2008/07/07/zope-zeo-setupconversion-and-zeo-vs-standalone-performance-review/ Read the instructions under INSTALLATION COMPLETE Once all is well start Plone /wherever/plone/is/installed Thanks, Christopher Warner Steve McMahon wrote: > > If the Unified Installer failed with a missing gcc message, that > probably means that the command "which gcc" didn't turn up an > executable.
