How do I make a Gui Text on an object?
I am trying to make a text show on a wall, but it is not working! Can you help?
You could create a light cookie for the text, and then project the text onto the wall (I'm assuming you want something similar to what was featured prominently in Splinter Cell Conviction). They used a light/projector with the words as the cookie for the light, which then projected the words onto the walls/floors/etc.

It looks like you need to render a text to a texture, so you need the "render to texture" function which is disabled on Unity FREE version.
Solution unless you need that text changing: make a texture of that text and apply it to the wall on UV2.
Render Textures are used for displaying camera views on textures, not for displaying text components on textures, and you can certainly do what he asked with Unity Free.
Have a look at Text Mesh component (https://answers.unity.com/questions/18394/how-do-i-make-a-gui-text-on-an-object.html)
