I’ve just downloaded 6.1 on a new system hosted on a Win98 file system.
All seams well with the system in general. But I can’t compile. I have a
Hello World program. When I type the line:
qcc -ohello hello.c
I get the error:
cc: spawn of /usr/ntox86/bin/as failed: No such file or directory
I did, I believe, download the X86 C/C++ development archive from the WWW
Repository.
What can I do/look at next to fix this?
P.S. I didn’t have this problem on a 6.0 system.

Look in your repositry (the installed software software) to see if you
got the “x86 development tools targeting x86” (or something similar)
package installed, that’s the one you need, and the “x86 development
libraries targeting x86”
They are not installed by default when you do a new install…
also it seems that if you do an upgrade from 6.0 it corrupts the dev
tools somehow, at least that’s my experience…
I loaded the Package installer,
clicked on “View My Software”,
clicked on “All Repositories”,
clicked on “View My Software”,
expanded “QNX Realtime Platform”,
expanded “Software Development”,
under this there are two lines labeled “C/C++ Toolset for x86 targeting x86”
and “Development (Libs and Headers) targeting x86”
Both of these lines have a X in the box at the beginning of those lines.
Doesn’t this mean that I “should” have all of the right things installed?
What can I look at next?
BTW, this is NOT an upgrade from 6.0. This is a brand new 6.1 install from
get.qnx.com onto a Windows98 filesystem. After the base OS was up and
running the very next thing I did was go to the WWW repository and download
the compilers.

What I would do is remove all the packages for development/libs etc and re-install.
(Don’t just disable them, do a removal).
Try not to pick/choose packages but just install a whole set and remove
the ones you don’t need later.

OK. So this is a known bug.
The problem with trying to download a whoe set is that the package installer
can’t seam to download more than 1 MB without crapping out. (See my post
immediately before this one in this conference.)
Excuse me but it seams by now that downloading software through a modem
should be “old hat”. Why is this so buggyas it has been since RPT was first
announced?
