I have seen two sets of documentation with instructions for running the regression test:<br><a href="http://www.boost.org/more/regression.html"><br>http://www.boost.org/more/regression.html</a><br><br>and<br><a href="http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost.aspx"><br>http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost.aspx</a><br><br>Neither of them mention user-config.jam.<br><br>I stumbled through the process of running the regression test, and finally got them to work after about a week. Rene spent a lot of time helping me with the problem. Also Valodia pointed out the correct syntax for specifying an alternative gcc compiler.&nbsp; This syntax isn't documented either, but is most important:<br><pre><tt><tt>#  Configure gcc (default version)<br>using gcc : : /usr/bin/g++-4.1.1 ;</tt></tt></pre>If possible the people who manage these pages should :<br>1) metion that user-config.jam is necessary to running regression.py<br>2) the line&nbsp; using gcc ....&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; is very
 important, and give a few examples.<br>3) the line&nbsp; using python ;&nbsp; is very important and must be specified.<br><br>If the documentation were updated maybe the noob testers would take quite so much time, and might not flood the test reports with misconfigured compiler results.<br><p>&#32;
