Creator 4.0 fails to find qmake

stephenju

I just updated Creator to 4.0 on Windows 7 and tried to build a simple project with Qt 5.6 mingw. I got this error:

10:09:48: Running steps for project fonts...
10:09:48: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step.
10:09:48: Starting: "C:\Qt\Tools\mingw492_32\bin\mingw32-make.exe"

Error while building/deploying project fonts (kit: Desktop Qt 5.6.0 MinGW 32bit)

Somehow the path to qmake is all messed up. All the back slashes are stripped.

Hi,

Did you do the update from the maintenance tool ?

stephenju

@SGaist Yes. I did. I also removed and added the component with the same result.
However, I added MSVC2013 32bit to the project and it didn't have the problem. Then I rebooted the machine and now both works.

Good old reboot and everything is working again ? :)
