Unsolved Qt Creator cannot create new projects or configure existing ones
-
Did you check the Kit in the Preferences to see if there's something off there ?
-
One thing that's been happening for a while but never really seemed to affect it was that every time I closed Qt it would spit out Qt Creator has stopped working and said that qtcreator.exe with a version of 4.5.10 had crashed. I just now realized that it was a different version of Qt that was somehow crashing despite not being currently installed.
-
@SGaist If by kit prefences you mean that MinGW is default, then yes. it is default. It's also the only kit installed.
-
Does it show any yellow or red sign beside the Kit ?
Did you mix the use of online and offline installer ?
-
@SGaist No. And I don't believe I mixed the installation process. It started happening on an install of Qt after months of use so I don't think it's an install thing.
-
Got any Windows updates in between ?
Anti-virus ? Some of them are pretty trigger happy and can wreak havoc for development tools. -
No. I'm running windows 7 and I have auto-updates turned off (Maybe not the safest...)
-
What version of Qt Creator do you have running ?
-
I'm currently running Qt 5.10.1
-
That you already wrote and it's clear. I'm asking about the Qt Creator version.
-
@SGaist I'm on Qt Creator 4.5.1 (community)
-
I've been looking into the "Qt Creator has stopped working" problem whenever I close Qt and it seems to be caused by ntdll.dll. Looking into that as it could be related.
-
Am I just on my own on this?
-
@DanGione Did you try to reinstall QtCreator?
-
I have the same problem.
I have Qt Creator:
Qt Creator 4.6.1 Based on Qt 5.10.1 (Clang 8.0 (Apple), 64 bit) Built on May 2 2018 04:20:50 From revision 065e644d92

brew cask install qt-creator

Hi,
What exact error are you getting ?
-
@SGaist, The same as the original poster's one:
Project ERROR: failed to parse default search paths from compiler output
Error while parsing file path/to/project.pro. Giving up.Going to
Build
>Run qmake
was failing too. After simply runningqmake
in the terminal, it started working.It was not creating the
Run
configuration at all, even after cleaning git ignored files (like the.pro.user
file for example) and configuring aBuild
configuration.
