[SOLVED] QT 5.0.2 Win 8 and exited with code -1073741511. Modules with different CPU types?

Thuthuka

Hi All

I have recently upgraded from win 7 to win 8.
I had issues with builds.
I went from QT 4.8 to QT 5.0.2 and
Removed / Uninstalled All QT files - rebooted
reinstalled only QT 5.0.2 - rebooted
I have deleted all pro.user files but I keep getting the same error.

When I build the debug version runs ok
But the release version fails with
SHIMVIEW: ShimInfo(Complete)
The program has unexpectedly finished.
C:\Work\projects\QT\Tools-Build\release\Tools exited with code -1073741511

or a error message box saying
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click ok to close the application."

When I get this the application sometimes hangs about in background and I have to kill it with
the task manager.

Dependancy walker gives me this.
Error: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in an implicitly dependent module.
Error: Modules with different CPU types were found.
IESHIMS.DLL cannot be found.

I have tried copying the following dlls into the release directory
D3DCompiler_43.dll
icudt49.dll
icuin49.dll
icuuc49.dll
libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll
libGLESv2.dll
libstdc++-6.dll
libwinpthread-1.dll
Qt5Core.dll
Qt5Gui.dll
Qt5Widgets.dll
Am I missing any?

my system path starts with
"C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin;C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\Tools\MinGW\bin;"
full path as follows
C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin;C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\Tools\MinGW\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD APP\bin\x86_64;C:\Program Files (x86)\AMD APP\bin\x86;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Support Tools;C:\csvn\bin;C:\csvn\Python25;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files (x86)\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\

and my QTDIR is "C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32"

I have even tried making a new QT GUI application from the newly installed QT creator
.pro

Hope this is not too long to read.

Any ideas on what I am missing?

it seems that you mix 32bit with 64bit libraries?!

Thuthuka

Hi
I figured it might be something to do with mixing libs but...

How do I find out which lib is the wrong lib?

Dependany walker shows some libs as 64 bit but I am not calling them . At least not directly.
eg
c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL
is shown as 64 bit.
but that is called by
c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\QT5CORE.DLL
this is not shown as 64 bit
and by
c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\LIBGCC_S_SJLJ-1.DLL
this is also not shown as 64 bit

How do I force the build to to link to 32bit libs only!???

I have looked around in compiler settings and the nearest thing I can find is .....
DEFINES -= UNICODE

But this is not really good and... does not fix the problem

I think I need to reinstall but do a complete manual clean out of any and all QT stuff before I reinstall but..

The last time I uninstalled I removed
C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Local\Nokia
C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Roaming\Nokia
C:\Users\Peter\AppData\Roaming\QtProject
C:\qt

When I tried doing a search in the registry I got a lot of
hits for Quick Time but did not see anything that looked like it belonged to QT.

Anything else?

DependencyWalker displays in the CPU column if it's a 32- or 64-bit lib.
Even you do not link against them directly, it may come from Qt as a dependency or even from their dependencies.
Which DLLs are 64bit in your dependency tree?

Thuthuka

Dependancy walker shows..
c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL
as 64 bit the cpu is marked as AMD64
(This should not really be relevant but I have an AMD processor)

but LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL is called by
c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\QT5CORE.DLL
This is shown as cpu x86 (and I assume 32 bit as it is not marked as 64 bit).

I do not call LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL directly from my application.

Ok. my solution for any one who as a similar issue.

Uninstall QT
Reboot
remove

@ C:\Users<name>\AppData\Roaming\QtProject@

And these if you still have them

@ C:\Users<name>\AppData\Local\Nokia

C:\Users<name>\AppData\Roaming\Nokia@

-Remove all files in
@ C:\Windows\Prefetch@

-Set virtual memory size to 16 mb
(force windows to clear out junk)
-reboot
-reset virtual memory size to original settings
-reboot
(Feel like you have just a done a bit of voodoo magic)

Make a backup of your current windows system path.
Set windows system path to
@C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0@

Delete all .pro.user files.
Delete all build files.
reboot
Install Qt
reboot
Rebuild QT project

now it works (aaaagghhhhhhh!!!!!!)

Restore you old windows system path etc.
I will be adding my full path piece by piece and rebooting to see if anything breaks.

B.T.W. Dependancy walker shows..
@c:\qt\qt5.0.2\5.0.2\mingw47_32\bin\LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL@
cpu as x86 (32 bit)

So colour me confused!
