I just installed DJGPP and RHIDE and I'm having the same trouble. I
wrote a small dummy program very similar to the one posted in this
thread and all I get is "There were some errors." The thing is, when I
don't use RHIDE and just compile from the command line, I don't get
any executable either. No error messages or anything; the source file
seems to compile just fine, but when I look for some tangible result
there doesn't seem to be any. Strange. I even did a disk search just
to see if things were getting moved around to odd places, but
apparently not.

I haven't been so fortunate as to experience the "reboot and the
problem will go away" phenomenon, either. So far I haven't been able
to compile anything :)
