Install problem: configure: error: C preprocessor "/home/yuhang/Insync/bigship1990@gmail.com/C++" fails sanity check

[Yuhang Li]

Hello all,

I am new to SST, I'm trying to install SST following the example video in
https://code.google.com/p/sst-simulator/wiki/SSTBuildAndInstall3dot0series

However, after I use the command
./configure --prefix=/home/yuhang/sst/local/sst-3.0.0 --with-boost=/home/yuhang/sst/local/packages/boost-1.50

I got the error:

checking how to run the C preprocessor... /home/yuhang/Insync/bigsh******@gmail.com/C++
configure: error: in `/home/yuhang/sst/scratch/src/sst-3.0.0':
configure: error: C preprocessor "/home/yuhang/Insync/bigsh******@gmail.com/C++" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details

I did have a folder named "C++" in that direction before, but I have removed that "C++" for a long time. I cannot delete it again because there is no such a folder in my computer. I googled the problem but got nothing helpful.

Someone please tell what's that problem and how to fix it?

Thanks,
Yuhang

It would appear that you have an environment variable '$CPP' that is
incorrectly set to point to that directory. $CPP, $CC, and $CXX are all
environment variables that are used to override the system defaults for
the compilers to use. You'll want to un-set those variables.
