QBPE 3.6.0 compiler error

[madscijr]

Now it has to work! 

Try this simple fix and let us know what happens.  

I don't know why you're getting these errors.

3: double-click on setup_win.bat

Thanks everyone for your replies and advice. It wasn't permissions, and it wasn't configuration.
I didn't have to compile my own - although I think Jack may have taught a few of us some new tricks.
It was the path, and multiple copies of mingw.

4. Is it possible you have another version of MinGW installed on your machine? Errors like the

-auxbase-strip

thing are related to the

cc1plus.exe

not understanding internal parameters passed to it from the main

g++.exe

. AFAIK this should never happen as long as the

cc1plus.exe

and

g++.exe

are from the same version of MinGW. Check that you don't have something like a

C:\MinGW\

folder, and check your

PATH

for anything that looks related to

MinGW

.

How might we have both QB64 and QB64PE working side by side?

Don't mess with path:

That was it!!! DSMan195276 asking about multiple copies of mingw got me thinking that maybe having 2 different QB64 editions, both using mingw, could be confusing things. The QB64 2.0.2 folder location was in my path from way back - I don't even recall why I originally added it, but once I removed that, QB64PE started working (and QB64 2.0.2 still works). 

Thanks bplusplus (you have earned an extra +) and thanks DSMan195276.



Don't mess with path!
Let that be a motto.
