I'm trying to use zypper to install gcc on my Amazon EC2 instance running SUSE.

When I try:zypper in gcc

I get:

I've search for the problem and this thread came up, but offered no solutions.
I've triedsces-activate. Am I doing something wrong?

I should say I'm very new to this, and I admit I don't really know what I'm doing, but I'm trying to learn about setting up and running a server and so I thought I'd throw myself in at the deep(ish) end.

Thanks for reading.
