Redis - linux / Error when Installing redis on linux: `cc: command not found`

for those of you who encounter this error

check this github issue

before make run this command

$ cd deps; make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise

If you're not an advanced user maybe it is not a good idea to install REDIS from the source.

Instead you should install a packaged version. For example on Fedora / Centos / RHEL:

sudo yum install redis

Install build essential first

sudo apt-get install build-essential

then install the dependencies

cd deps

make hiredis lua jemalloc linenoise

You are trying to install redis from source code. What this process do is to compile and create executable on your machine and then install it. For doing this you need various tools like gcc etc. Best way is to install all of them together by installing that group. Run this from terminal

yum grouplist 

This will show all groups available and then choose group you want to install or run directly

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'

This will save you from other problems which might come in future while installing from source.
