below is our process and the errors we are getting, can anyone tell us
where the issue is?
GEOS requires C++ rather than C, and so you need to install the gcc C++
compiler using yum as several other people have already pointed out.
PostGIS is complaining because it's looking for the geos-config file
installed by GEOS, and so since GEOS hasn't been installed then it isn't
there.

Again - you can't build GEOS because you don't have a C++ compiler
installed on your system. The geos-config file in the tools/
subdirectory is a special pre-generated one for people building using MSVC.
Also it looks as if you've extracted the geos-3.2.0.tar.bz2 file in
/usr/local which is wrong - /usr/local is the *target* i.e. where the
resulting files will be copied to when they have been built. You should
extract the file in a separate location, perhaps somewhere in your home
directory.
Don't mean to keep asking the same question over and over, I'm new at
this. Happy New Year, mine would be much happier if I could have this
all installed now!!
From what you've reported, it does seem that you're struggling somewhat
with the build process. I would second the suggestion that you add the
yum.pgsqlrpms.org repository as pointed out earlier in this thread and
then simply use your normal package management tool to do the work for you.
ATB,
Mark.
