mingw32-g++.exe: error: (invalid): No such file or directory

Question

--- Not a useful topic --- Problem occurred in project...

I viewed this page: mingw32-g++.exe: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory

I installed MinGW(32) first, and installed MinGW64 (by mingw-builds). And this error occurred. I know i installed EGCS(64bit MinGW).

I tried to uninstall(by wizard) and reboot but i still can't build in C::B.

And i now uninstalled mingw(the original version) and installed TDM-GCC-32 and 64.

The configure is not wrong, and the files is correct.

My %Path%:

PATH=C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program File
s (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Window

Solution

I'm going to assume from your above comment that the mingw toolchain you installed on your machine is working properly. The next thing you need to verify is that code::blocks is looking in the right place for that install.

To do this goto Settings->Compiler. This brings up the "Global compiler settings" window. Click on the "Toolchain executables" tab. You should see something like the following:

Check that the "Compiler's installation directory" has the correct path for your mingw install. Also check and make sure the various fields below point to the correct compiler executable name.

do a test compile from the command prompt to verify the toolchain itself works. eg. g++ -Wall -pedantic example.cpp -o example.exe. Also, you have tdm-gcc 64bit and tdm-gcc 32bit on your path. Keep the one you want to use and remove the other.

@greatwolf Thanks for the answer. I tried remove 64bit path and tried run "gcc" in cmd. gcc or g++ is working, but codeblocks is not working to build. It seems cannot find the compiler.

I solved the problem! Tried in another project, and the build was successful. Thank you!

You need o put -g in the base field, not the directory.
