Hi,  try g++ instead of gcc for the name of the compiler.  Also, I would suggest checking into OPENmpi, as it is the "designated successor" to LAM.

Subject: LAM: Newbie Qu: OS X 10.4.10: Your C++ compiler does not supportthe bool data type ?

Please excuse the doubtless elementary question, but the configure  

step failed with

"Your C++ compiler does not support the bool data type", with CC=cc  

(or gcc) CXX=cc (or gcc) and FC=g77.

I found a hint to change "argv" to "argv[]" but that made no  

difference.  The machine is a MacPro 2 x 3Ghz Quad core Xeon.

Also, when trying to Search with both Safari and Mozilla, I always  

get an error saying that no search criteria were specified, which  

seems odd.

thanks for the help,

tony rollett
