    <p>I was trying to install Boost on a linux machine(CentOs, Linux version 2.6.9-67.ELsmp). I followed with the instruction on Boost <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html#build-a-simple-program-using-boost">Getting Started</a> webpage. Downloaded and extracted the files, then I add prefix because I am not the root user.</p> <pre><code>./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/my_path/boost-1.49.0 ./b2 install </code></pre> <p>I go to /my_path/boost-1.49.0 and check there are /include/boost/ and /lib/ contain files there.</p> <p>also I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /my_path/boost-1.49.0/lib/.</p> <p>To test if I installed successfully, I compile the following code:</p> <p>main.cpp</p> <pre><code>#include &lt;boost/regex.hpp&gt; #include &lt;iostream&gt; #include &lt;string&gt; using namespace boost; using namespace std; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { string line = "12345"; regex pattern("^123"); if (regex_match(line, pattern)) cout &lt;&lt; "match." &lt;&lt; endl; else cout &lt;&lt; "not match." &lt;&lt; endl; return 1; } </code></pre> <p>And compile by command:</p> <pre><code>g++ -v -I /my_path/boost-1.49.0/include/boost -L /my_path/boost-1.49.0/lib main.cpp -lboost_regex -o example </code></pre> <p>and generate following errors:</p> <pre><code>Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/specs Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-java-awt=gtk --host=x86_64-redhat-linux Thread model: posix gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9) /usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/cc1plus -quiet -v -I /my_path/boost-1.49.0/include/boost/ -D_GNU_SOURCE main.cpp -quiet -dumpbase main.cpp -mtune=k8 -auxbase main -version -o /tmp/ccW0ON8y.s ignoring nonexistent directory "/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../../x86_64-redhat-linux/include" #include "..." search starts here: #include &lt;...&gt; search starts here: /my_path/boost-1.49.0/include/boost/ /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../../include/c++/3.4.6 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../../include/c++/3.4.6/x86_64-redhat-linux /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/../../../../include/c++/3.4.6/backward /usr/local/include /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/3.4.6/include /usr/include End of search list.
