Can not compile a C++ project - failure with mingw32-make.exe

[ledi001]

Hi,
today i installed MinGW and codeLite (version 12.0.0) on my desktop and notebook.
I use Win7 (64Bit) and i also set the environment variable to the path with C:\MinGW\bin.

On my desktop codeLite works!
On my notebook unfortunatley not

This is the message which i get if i want to compile a c++ code:

C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /C C:/MinGW/bin/mingw32-make.exe -j4 SHELL=cmd.exe -e -f Makefile
"----------Building project:[ test1 - Debug ]----------"

Hope, somebody can help!

The error is:

Code: Select all

The command "makedir" is written false or could not found.

I don't know how that has come about. On Linux type systems it would be mkdir and on Windows it would be md. The error message doesn't look grammatically correct but I would investigate the Makefile and the project settings which create it.
