I am trying to re-install quantum espresso-4.3 on the University's LINUX interface (because of a recent crash and I lost most of my files).
when I " ./configure ", It is giving an error stating that :
checking building system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking architecture... x86_64
checking for ifort.. no
checking for pgf90... no
checking for pathf95.. no
checking for sunf95.. no
checking for openf95... no
checking for gfortran... no
checking for g95... g95
checking for Fortran compiler default output... configure: error: Fortran compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
(1) I do not know where the config.log file is. I have looked in the directory where I have run configure but I could not find it....
(2) what could be the cause of the error? will this be present in the config.log file?
I found the file but I am trying to copy it from the server (netuno.lcc.ufmg.br) to my personal computer using ftp or sftp but in vain can you please let me know how to perform this process....Thanks
If your PC is running Windows, it will not have an SCP client built in. My suggestion would be to get a client like Win-SCP and instead of "pushing" the file to the PC, pull it from the *nix box.
Thanks very much for your reply. It is really handy. I have a small problem though. Since I am at home, I have first to connect to the mother board (NETUNO) in my case so what I did is I used my username there and my password but then I have to connect to another computer called caiapo which has another address and another passoword.
How can I do that? Sorry I am definitely asking stupid questions but I am LINUX illiterate and I am trying my best before posting on here

Guys,
Problem solved. I was able finally to import my config.log file from the internet to my desktop. Here is the content. I would be helpful if someone can have a look at it and tell me what might be going wrong in the compilation..Thanks.
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by ESPRESSO configure 4.2CVS, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61. Invocation command line was
$ ./install/configure
