bldmake returned with exit value = 2

[raj8nokiaforum]

Hi,

I just installed the following things in sequence in my machine running windows vista:

1.> ActivePerl-5.10.0.1002-MSWin32-x86-283697
2.> Carbide C++ ver. 2.3
3.> S60 3rd MR and S60 5th Edition

But when i created a new project and tried building it i got the following error:

bldmake returned with exit value = 2

erroneous part of the output from the console window is this :
***Invoking bldmake command
perl.exe -S bldmake.pl bldfiles winscw
Sorry, \epoc32\tools\bldmake.bat is not supported in this release. Please use a different
device. Use 'devices' to view the available devices.

I have tried re-installing the softwares but i am getting the same error.
what do you think is the problem?

On a first note, uninstall that ActivePerl 5.10.0 version and install this recommended version: ActivePerl 5.6.1 Build 635

If the problem still persists then list your problem here.

Hi,

i un-installed everything the perl, the carbide and all the sdks and restarted my pc and installed the following in sequence:

1.> ActivePerl-5.6.1.635-MSWin32-x86
2.> Carbide C++ v2.0
3.> S60 3rd edition MR

now, i am getting the following 2 errors:
- bldmake returned with exit value = 9
- EPOCROOT environment variable must be capitalised


following is the erroneous output from the console window:
EPOCROOT environment variable must be capitalised
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR_3\epoc32\tools\/E32env.pm line 52.
Compilation failed in require at C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR_3\epoc32\tools/bldmake.pl line 28.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR_3\epoc32\tools/bldmake.pl line 28.

I have done this several times but i don't know what is wrong this time....can anyone suggest a sure shot solution?

You can find some ideas about Vista in the Wiki (search for vista). Everything should be installed with right-click+Run as Administrator for example.
It should not matter, but the latest version of Carbide.c++ is 2.6 (you can download 2.3, and it can update itself).
