Hi Eric,

It occurs to me, did you install the 'jags-devel' RPM along with the jags RPM?

Header and other files to facilitate local compilation would typically be installed in the 'xxx-devel' RPM for the relevant binary package RPM.

It looks like you used rpm.pbone.net and they do have the jags-devel RPM there:

  http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21879958/dir/centos_6/com/jags-devel-1.0.4-7.3.x86_64.rpm.html

Checking the RPM content, Console.h is listed there.

Regards,
