Error with Trinity installation

Question

Hello everyone,

I have rented a server from school computer center, and trying to install Trinity on it via SSH. but I got the following error message:

I am still new at linux operation. could anyone give me some suggestions what have gone wrong here?

What is your GCC version?

Hi @iamtuttu5

Did you solve the problem? When I was trying to install trinity, it was truly the problem of GCC version and the IT guy who was admin in the computer center at the time said they can not update gcc compiler at that time just for me. Then I contacted a friend of mine who had another server, then I checked the compiler version and it was new , and its version as shown as below:

[WHL@server ~]$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-bootstrap --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,java,fortran,ada --enable-java-awt=gtk --disable-dssi --with-java-home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0/jre --enable-libgcj-multifile --enable-java-maintainer-mode --with-ecj-jar=/usr/share/java/eclipse-ecj.jar --disable-libjava-multilib --with-ppl --with-cloog --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=i686 --build=x86_64-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4) (GCC)

Then I used his server which installed trinity successfully, then I used 50 threads and 200G memory in one night when no body using it finished my job.

Sorry about this comment sent as an answer, it is because the place where I am now has a little problem opening the biostars every time. I can only sent something this way.

Thank you guys,

Yes, the gcc version on the server is really old, its gcc 4.1 version. Then I contacted with IT in the computer center.

I tried the commands mentioned by h.mon in this page

cat /etc/issue

It seems you are using an old version of GCC, you probably need to use a more recent one. You could have easily found that out searching a bit, when I googled for your first error (cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-std=c++0x") I found this StackOverflow thread, and for the second error (cc1plus: error: unrecognized command line option "-fopenmp"), I found this one.

Which Linux and GCC version are you using? Type the following at the terminal:

cat /etc/issue
uname -a
gcc -v

Oftentimes the system default GCC is old, but there is a newer one installed as gcc-X.Y (e.g. gcc-4.7), if such is the case you may edit the Makefile and replace gcc by gcc-X.Y (the one available at your system). You should probably ask for help for your school IT guys, they will be able to guide you through the initial difficulties and point to relevant resources.
