First, make sure you have a function called main (and it's typed correctly. The first time I found this error I had a function called "mian"). Second, if you want just the object file (ie. no linking) then use "g++ -c <file>.cc -o <file>.o". > The other error is as follows: > > If I mistakenly type "gcc <file>.cc" : > > gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory Can't help you there....
