Install an acceptable C compiler?

Provide more details as to what you did and the makeup of your server environment (o/s, means of installation, etc.)

If the system lacks a C compiler then it likely also lacks a lot of
other infrastructure needed to build from the source-code distribution
(header files, libraries, etc etc).

Probably the OP would be better off to install a pre-built package.
