warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast

When I declare a char * to a fixed string and reuse the pointer to point to another string

/* initial declaration */
char *src = "abcdefghijklmnop";
.....

/* I get the   "warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast" */
*src ="anotherstring";

I tried to recast the pointer but no success.
