make is not installed in solaris 10?

I dunno but it would seem that way... When I type "make" it would tell me "make: not found" even though I'm typing this from a directory that has a makefile... But when I "man make" it would show the man page for make... Eh? Any help? Thanks!

Solaris has interesting concepts about what should and shouldn't need to be installed. I'm not too up to date on how Solaris manages installations, but I assume they have a package manager like all the Linuxes and BSDs do.

Hi, thanks for your response. It was a mistake, it was installed when I tried to look for it using "whereis". So two ways, either you set it to your $PATH or run it from its directory. I just installed it from its directory which was /usr/ccs/bin in my case... So what I did was...


/./usr/ccs/bin/make

and

/./usr/ccs/bin/make install


hope that helps other poeple too. :)

You'll probably want to add /usr/ccs/bin to your PATH, since there are quite a few development tools in there besides make.
