    Default Problems with QT Setup on Vista

    Hi, I'm a Qt complete beginner and visited the following helpful website to figure out how to properly install and setup: http://sector.ynet.sk/qt4-tutorial/preparations.html

    I downloaded the latest version 4.5.0 (am using Vista) and used the installer, which completed successfully.

    Next, as instructed on the website, and various other thread posts, google searches, etc., I opened the environment variable settings, and created the following New Variables:

    QTDIR which I set to C:\Qt\2009.01
    QMAKESPEC which I set to win32-g++
    PATH which I set to C:\Qt\2009.01\bin; C:\Qt\2009.01\mingw\bin

    I rebooted my computer, opened the command prompt and tried the following commands:
    gcc -v
    make -v
    qmake -v

    all of which gave me the "is not recognized as an internal or external command" error.

    I've been scouring the web for hours trying to figure out what the problem is, with no luck.
    I read something somewhere about a prerequirement of installing OpenSSL on my machine, which I did, rebooted again - still no luck.

    What am I missing here?

    Thanks for any help you might have!

    Hi,

    I am just working in linux, but isn't there a directory called "C:\Qt\2009.01\src"? And in it a bin directory? this should also be in PATH. And Maybee the src should be the QTDIR? But as mentioned, I am not sure...

    Lets see... in C:\Qt\2009.01 there are the following directories:
    bin, lib, mingw, qt, share

    I thought that maybe my QTDIR should have been C:\Qt\2009.01\qt, but that didn't work either.

    In the Qt/2009.01 directory there is no src, but there *is* one in Qt\2009.01\qt. However there is no bin in there...
