Linux Centos upgrade glibc 2.12 to 2.14 config error

I am attempting to upgrade 2.12 to 2.14 on Centos and have been following this example: How to upgrade glibc from version 2.12 to 2.14 on CentOS?

All has worked up to ../configure --prefix=/usr/share/doc/glibc-2.14 when I get the output:

checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
checking for cl.exe... no
configure: error: in `/root/glibc_install/glibc-2.14/build':
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details

Output of core tests in config.log:

configure:2363: checking build system type
configure:2377: result: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
configure:2397: checking host system type
configure:2410: result: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
configure:2479: checking for gcc
configure:2509: result: no
configure:2572: checking for cc
configure:2619: result: no
configure:2675: checking for cl.exe
configure:2705: result: no
configure:2729: error: in `/root/glibc_install/glibc-2.14/build':
configure:2731: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
See `config.log' for more details

Thanks for any help with this :)

It would appear you are missing a C compiler, for example

checking for gcc... no

I would suggest starting with Employed Russian's questions:

Does gcc --version run and report a version number? If no, continue.

Does which gcc give you a path? If no, continue

If either of the above are yes, I would suggest reviewing the contents of your $PATH variable.

If both are no, try:

sudo yum group install "Development Tools"

... with or without sudo, as needed.
