GNU compilation error 'hello world'

[LarsKerk]

When trying to compile the 'Hello World' example code with GNUmake I get the following error:

sethostname: Use the Network Control Panel Applet to set hostname.
hostname -s is not supported.
sethostname: Use the Network Control Panel Applet to set hostname.

I have no idea why or what goes wrong, any help would be very much appreciated!

Is this on a Windows machine?

Could you provide more details? I am not a Windows user. So I am just guessing. Is this Windows Subsystem for Linux? Do you have gcc and GNU Coreutils installed?

Alternatively, you can also try Visual Studio and CMake. I have no ideas on how to use these. But I know some AMReX users are able to do that. And this might give you some hints. https://github.com/AMReX-Codes/amrex/blob/development/.github/workflows/windows.yml.

[LarsKerk]

The gcc and GNU Coreutils are installed btw, yes

[LarsKerk]

The main issue I come across is the fact that the program cannot open the source file AMReX_Config.H, and there being no such file present anywhere in my folders.

Another error that occurs, is that building 'CMakeLists.txt' creates the error 'No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found'
