MySQL unsuccesfully installed. Need help!

[root]

hi there,

I've tried to install mysql-3.23.55.tar.gz but failed. Firstly, I've
created directory /home/users/mysql and add group for mysql. Those are the
command that I've used previously:

shell>groupadd mtsqlid
shell>mkdir /home/users
shell>useradd -d /home/users/mysql -s /bin/false -g mysqlid mysqlid

Then i decompressed mysql-3.23.55.tar.gz into /home/users/mysql and one new
directory called mysql-3.23.55 created.

According to www.mysql.com, mysql installation, i need to run ./configure
--prefix=/usr/mysql but this is the message i've got.

configure:error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

then when i tried to run this command

shell>scripts/mqsql_install_db

it also give me an error that is no such file or directory. I really don't
know what to do. Please do help me.
Frankly speaking, i'm still new to linux and mySQL.
