[piiswrong]

Your cuda sdk isn't installed properly. Set USE_CUDA=0 in config.mk

[keithyin]

@piiswrong it can be solved with setting USE_CUDA=0 and gcc-5.4.0. but with gcc-4.9, it didn't work either.

[miguelgfierro]

The system is not finding cuda headers. Apart from setting cuda flag to 1, you have to set the correct path. Check this guide for detailed info: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/machinelearning/2016/09/15/building-deep-neural-networks-in-the-cloud-with-azure-gpu-vms-mxnet-and-microsoft-r-server/

[ashleylid]

Setting CUDA flag to 1 and running this: sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.4 /usr/local/cuda/bin/gcc may help (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6622454/cuda-incompatible-with-my-gcc-version) depending on your gcc version.

@KeithYin I am facing a similar issue. Can you please specify how you solved this issue? I am using gcc 5.4.0 that comes standard with Ubuntu 16.04. Thanks in advance!

Here is output I get when running make -j12 in the ~/mxnet directory:

Anyone has solved the issue?
