Dear All I downloaded the octave-3.4.2 and tried to install it on my centos 5.6 as the following: #./configure But it prompted for lack of a c compiler, so I tried to install gcc first and then re-executed it and it was successful. #make But it prompts as "No targets specified and no makefile found". #make install But it prompts as "No rule to make target 'install'". I had the same steps for installing applications when I was on my centos 5.0 machine. Can you please let me know what is wrong my case? Thank you

You mistyped 'yum install octave'

Thank you for your reply. But I got its *.tar.gz package and tried from it. Do you mean '#yum install octave' is all sufficient to install it? Please confirm.

No # prefix.
Just type:
yum install octave

Did you verify ? I just did a 'yum info octave' on one of my CentOS 5.6 machine, and there it is what I get : Name : octave Arch : x86_64 Epoch : 6 Version : 3.0.5 Release : 1.el5 Size : 12 M Repo : epel Summary : A high-level language for numerical computations
So, octave is not available from base repo, but only through an additional repository, EPEL in this case.
As said by John Doe, for hadi, if installing from source and getting thesse make errors, you have to verify if there is any correct Makefile inside the directory from where you type 'make'.

Have you tried it?
octave 3.0.x is supported by CentOS 5.x and installed from yum.
You should always first try yum, then see if there is some rpm in third party repositories, and only if you do not find any compile it your self. Problem with compiling it your self is that you might not be able to resolve all dependencies. It looks like you will need ~10 additional packages, which yum will solve automatically.

Not on this 5.6 system:

Try the EPEL repository. Most things that don't need to replace base programs and don't have license issues end up there.

Link to EPEL wiki with explanation: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL After you install epel-release package, "yum install octave" will work.

#make But it prompts as "No targets specified and no makefile found". #make install But it prompts as "No rule to make target 'install'".
If make says there is no Makefile, make install will not work either... Did you check the configure log file to see what is wrong?

Octave 3.0.5 needs 14 additional packages. Compiling it would need additional 5-10. Plus packages for development tools other then gcc.
He better install[1] EPEL repository and install it via yum.
