Sounds like you don't have cpp installed. This is usually installed in /bin or /usr/bin or /usr/lib. This is actually part of the gcc package, but it is often installed separately when installed via package (RPM or deb). Go look for the cpp package (i.e. cpp-1.1.2-30-i386.rpm for Redhat) and install it. That should solve your problem.

I have gcc version egcs-2.91.66 installed on the machine as well as GNU make version 3.77 I keep getting an error stating that my C pre-processor is not available so the configure script blows up whenever I run it. I receive the following error: Creating Makefile + configured for Linux platform + setting C compiler to gcc + setting C pre-processor to NOT-AVAILABLE + checking for system header files + adding selected modules + doing sanity check on compiler and options ../helpers/TestCompile: make: command not found ** A test compilation with your Makefile configuration ** failed. This is most likely because your C compiler ** is not ANSI. Apache requires an ANSI C Compiler, such ** as gcc. The above error message from your compiler ** will also provide a clue. Aborting! Any ideas?
