configure failed can't find wingw32-make
Message 1 in thread
Hi,
I am using 'Cygwin' under WindowsXP and trying to compile Qt 4.2.3 (open
source version), on the command line, but configure failed with the
following message:
~~~
Creating qmake...
execute: File or path is not found (mingw32-make)
execute: File or path is not found (mingw32-make)
Cleaning qmake failed, return code -1
~~~
I downloaded and installed Cygwin with all the packages. I search for
mingw32-make in c:/MinGW directories and could not find any !.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
JR

... but MinGW32 w/out(!!!) MSYS works perfectly :-) Look at
http://www.mingw.org :-)

Cygwin is unix/linux in Windows. MinGW is minimum Gnu for Windows and
includes a dll that allows programs linked against it to run directly in
Windows. MinGW is not a part of Cygwin. After installing MinGW, and Qt,
open a standard terminal window (cmd.exe) and run the build commands
from that window.

For the build command do you mean 'configure.exe' at the
qt-win-opensource-src-4.2.3 ?

Hi Joshua,
When you install Qt open source version in Windows XP, you get "Qt by
Trolltech" in your Program Files right? There's actually a shortcut
there to "Qt 4.2.3 Command Prompt"...you can use that to compile/run all
your files. It's MinGW all properly configured. That's what I used..
HTH,
K.

1.) Make sure you have MinGW32 installed (http://www.mingw.org)
2.) Make sure you have "c:\path\to\Mingw32\bin" in your PATH environment
variable
3.) Make sure you have NO "sh.exe" in your PATH (if you have installed
cygwin - you probably DO HAVE it ... remove it!)
4.) Try again :-)

Malte

Then either you don't have mingw properly installed or your path
environment variable includes C:\cygwin\bin. If you must use cygwin (I
do) use cygwin.bat to launch cygwin shells. If you don't need cygwin,
remove it.
