Cross-compiling Nginx for SAMA5D3 Xplained board

[willy7841]

Hello,

I would like to run Nginx on my SAMA5D3 Xplained board.

I have a newbie questions:

I try to cross-compiling Nginx on my PC running Ubuntu with SAMA5D3 Xplained
cross-compiling, then I modify the environmental parameters of Ubuntu for
CC, AR, LD, RANLIB and STRIP:

=====================
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# export
CC=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# export
AR=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-ar
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# export
LD=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-ld
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# export
RANLIB=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-ranlib
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# export
STRIP=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-strip
=====================

But it fails from the start:

=====================
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# ./configure
--prefix=/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/target/var/www/nginx-arm
checking for OS
 + Linux 3.5.0-51-generic x86_64
checking for C compiler ... found but is not working

./configure: error: C compiler
/home/u12/buildroot-at91/output/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc is not

ext-toolchain-wrapper*
root at ubuntu:/home/u12/Desktop/JJ/nginx-0.8.30# 
=====================

How should I set things up so that I can try cross-compiling Nginx?

Thanks for any help.
