      Hi

      The following problem has now occurred twice on this workstation. I have had previous installations of Qt but I have uninstalled them. I also have Cygwin installed, but that shouldn't be the problem.

      Anyway, using the given "installer":http://get.qt.nokia.com/qtsdk/Qt_SDK_Win_online_v1_1_2_en.exe it downloads materials to C:\QtSDK but suddenly the installer just exits and leaves the installation unfinished. There is no query to launch QtCreator, it just silently exits. For instance, the SKMaintenanceTool.exe from Start menu is not available. Any attempts to compile any projects fail at this:

      Could not find make command 'make' in the build environment

      I have traced the problem back to this line in QtSDK\InstallationLog.txt:

      ---BEGIN LOG---
      C:\QtSDK\Symbian\SDKs\Symbian3Qt473\mkspecs\default>perl -i.bak -p -e "use Cwd;$p=getcwd();$p=~s/(.)/mkspecs(.)/$1/i;s/$(EPOCROOT)/$p//ig" qmake.conf

      Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing
      exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must
      reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

      ---END LOG---

      On the other hand, I had no problem with the same installer on my Windows 7 laptop.

      Please help.

      Edit:

      Looks like C:\QtSDK\Symbian\SDKs\Symbian3Qt473\epoc32\tools\make.exe does not even exist, while make.exe does exist in the similar path for other SDK's. This is quite certainly a sign of an incomplete installation, isn't it?
