GNU Compiler Collection (gcc). cpp compilation fails

1) Input:

gcc -o test test.cpp

2) Output:

gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory

Solution. On Linux OS gcc installation is not supported 'cpp' - format file, on input gcc need put 'c' - format file:

gcc -o test test.c

Try to run compiled file:

./test

In my case it was successful. I hope it help you
