Installing Apache on Sol 10 - Compiler Error

Hello Gurus,

I am installing apache 2.2 on Sol 10. To test before installing, I tried this:

./configure --prefix=/app/apache/apache2 --no-create

It came back with the error -
checking for gcc... /opt/gcc/bin/gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Below are a couple of env variables:

bash-3.00# echo $CC
/opt/gcc/bin/gcc
bash-3.00# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/gcc/lib

I'd been googling for past 4 hours with very little luck. I tried suggestions but in vain:

Installed gcc-3.4.6 from sunfreeware in /usr/local/bin and amended the PATH, library path and CC, still got the same C output file error

Installed libiconv-1.11 from Sunfreeware in /usr/local/bin and tried again, still got the same C output file error

Installed SUNW0scgfss and SUNW0gccfss - free compilers (cool tool) from SUN in /opt/gcc/bin. Set the path, library path, cc to /opt/gcc/bin/gcc and /opt/gcc/lib. Ran the same command and got the same C output file error

I am downloading the gcc package from http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/gcc.html as a last resort but I don't have much hope.

I know the error message is related to the C compiler but I am running out of idea on where to debug. Config.log file is long and has no error messages recorded in it. I couldn't find any summary on this in Sunmanagers archive list.

Please can someone point out what wrong I am doing here?

Many thanks
Ketan
