      Remove your previous versions of the app, change network setting in vmware (switch between bridge/nat)

        Hi,borceg.
        It doesn't solved the problem.

        My Env is: Win7 Home Basic + QtCreator 2.6 + BBNDK beta4
        Compiler Path: C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\qcc.exe
        ABI: custom - arm - linux - generic - elf - 32bit
        Qt Version: C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\qmake.exe

        Is there some wrong?

          NDK beta 4 is 10_0_9_1101, maybe you're using older version ?

            Hi, borceg.

            The details setting of [QtCreator]:
            [Compiler Path:] C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\qcc.exe
            [ABI:] custom – arm – linux – generic – elf – 32bit
            [Qt Version:] C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\qmake.exe

            The details setting of [qt.conf]:
            Prefix = ../../../../..
            Binaries = C:/bbndk/host_10_0_9_284/win32/x86/usr/bin
            Headers = C:/bbndk/target_10_0_9_1101/qnx6/usr/include/qt4
            Data = C:/bbndk/target_10_0_9_1101/qnx6/usr/share/qt4
            Libraries = C:/bbndk/target_10_0_9_1101/qnx6/armle-v7/usr/lib/qt4/lib
            Imports = C:/bbndk/target_10_0_9_1101/qnx6/armle-v7/usr/lib/qt4/imports
            Plugins = C:/bbndk/target_10_0_9_1101/qnx6/armle-v7/usr/lib/qt4/plugins

            I think , all other path point to target_10_0_9_1101, except qcc/qmake/binaries path point to host_10_0_9_284.

            Something wrong?

              Your ndk installation is messed up. Uninstall it completely (after uninstall delete bbndk folder in C) and re-install beta 4

                Yes, i do. I uninstalled previous sdk, and reboot computer and deleted bbndk folder in C, then reinstall beta 4.
                The result is same.
                Are you sure the path host_10_0_9_284 is incorrect?
                What's the correct host path in beta 4 ?

                  It seems someone face the same problem.
                  I think, the important clue is "Exec format error",some ideas?

                    Opps my mistake. Correct is host_10_0_9_284. [ABI:] for Simulator should be custom – x86 – linux – generic – elf – 32bit

                    Seems that there is some issue with beta 4.

                        The same result, remaining "Exec format error".

                          HelloWorld (build by QNX Momentic IDE):
                          C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\ntox86-objdump.exe -a HelloWorld
                          result: file format elf32-i386

                          HelloWorld (build by QtCreator 2.6):
                          C:\bbndk\host_10_0_9_284\win32\x86\usr\bin\ntox86-objdump.exe -a HelloWorld
                          result: file format elf32-little

                          This is the point why i got 'Exec format error'!

                          But i don't know how to modify the compiler abi settings in QtCreator 2.6, i'v tried almost all items.

                            Finally Solution:

                            point the Qt mkspec in the kits page to C:\bbndk\target_10_0_9_1101\qnx6\usr\share\qt4\mkspecs\blackberry-x86-qcc.

                            :-D

                              Finally it works... Thank you! But can you use the debugger now? Every time when I start it it just crashes, says that is has timed out or that it cannot connect, etc.

                              The app does get packaged and uploaded to the simulator and works though.
