make command doesn't work..?

[blasphemous cow]

I was trying to install Apache from source, as the install manager doesn't have it, and when I tried to do the "make" command, it says "make: command not found." Is there a different command in Kubuntu or something?

I tried it from sudo also, same result.

Hi,

You should be able to find it, it's in main repository. You can try to install it by :
sudo apt-get install apache2

If you still want to build it from source, so you need the package build-essential :
sudo apt-get install build-essential

Hope it helps.

Cool, thanks. Quick response, lol, I'm impressed.

I tried to get build-essential, and got the following:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package build-essential

Decided to just install it pre-built, and got this:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package apache2


Wowo. I'm lost.

Edit: Tried "sudo apt-get update", to make sure it has the most recent list, and I still get the same thing.

Really strange, did you enabled all repos in the /etc/apt/sources.list ?
If not you should take off the # in front of all lines starting by "deb http://"
Maybe you should comment also your cd repos, first of second line add a "#" in front of the line with the cd.

Then rerun sudo apt-get update and you should be fine.
I think you should be able to do also from adept, manage repos.

If it's not working, can you please post your /etc/apt/sources.list please ?

Cheers

You need to install make. Go to adept/Kynaptic and search for 'make' and 'gcc' and install those that should solve your problem.
