Once again I'm running into an error that is halting a lot of compiles I'm trying to finish. Here's the error:

gzip -cn file.1 > file.1.gz
-cn: No such file or directory

Of course the file exists, and it tries to gzip it considiring the -c option is valid. The -n function on the other hand is not working with gzip on the 4.8 or 4.9 system. I've tried upgrading and everything. Even a deperate try to alias the call didn't do any good. I've even tried to help it out by gzipping it myself. :cry:

Ok found it. Thought I'd reply back for anyone having this problem ever. I did a quick "which gzip", and low and behold.

/stand/gzip

DOH!!!!

Not a good thing to have /stand in your path. :oops:
