% m4 ../m4/cf.m4 yourdomain.mc > /tmp/sendmail.cf

When I try to use m4 as in above, I get error msg:

m4: Command not found.

if I go to m4 directory and use cf.m4 mydomain.mc > /tmp/sendmail.cf it gives a msg:

./cf.m4: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `divert(-1)'

Can anyone pls help.

Thanx !

I had this problem with m4 as well and have been unable to find a solution. Please help!

I am receiving this same error. Do I not have m4 installed on my system? How do I add it? Can anyone please advise?

On my machine - m4 is located initially at /usr/bin ... although in my case I also have it at /sw/bin - which takes precedence. So when I type "which m4" (to tellme where my m4 executable is) I get" /sw/bin/m4

In your case your path variable may not have /usr/bin in it or /sw/bin in it or for that matter you may nothave Fink installed at all (thats where the /sw comes from). Try using the full command:

/usr/bin/m4

and see if that helps any.
