'makedir' is not recognized

Post by Speedicus »

Codelite v 9.1.6 (also experienced in 9.1)
No
Windows 10



I'm experiencing problems with simply building/running my programs. I update to the recent stable build and the problem started by giving me the error and preventing the run from happening. I thought maybe it was fixed in 9.1.6 but the problem still persists.

Code: Select all

C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /C C:/TDM-GCC-64/bin/mingw32-make.exe -j4 SHELL=cmd.exe -e -f  Makefile
"----------Building project:[ matrices - Debug ]----------"

makedir exists under the installation folder of CodeLite.
If 'make' can't find it, then it must be something terribly wrong in your environment.

To check some:
- Are you running CodeLite from within MSYS or Cygwin shell?
- Did you change anything in the environment variable (settings->environment variables?)

Ah yes, I did change the environment variables. I removed the changes and the program builds successfully. Thanks.
