    Hi
    I had the same problem with QT v 4.7.0 on my machine.
    Struggled for a couple of weeks but finally understood what was going wrong.

    Go to tools>options>QT4>QT version
    Place your cursor on the "path" in "MANUAL".

    Do u see any invalid paths set for different variables (like for SRC, QT_INSTALL_LIBS, QT_INSTALL_DEMOS etc). Something like C:\QT\Trolltech............
    If yes, then the problem is there`s a shell script which did not run during the installation process due to SOME reason.


    SOLUTION:
    Go to your QT directory (like mine is "C:\Qt\2010.05\qt"). There will be a file with the name "configure". This is the file I am talking about.
    Go to QT command prompt and type "configure" and enter..This will take around 30 min.

    After which it will ask you to configure "mingw32-make" in the QT command prompt only. JUst write "mingw32-make" and press enter. This will take around 15 min.

    Restart your computer.
    It should work now.

    I would rather suggest to reinstall the Qt SDK. What is suggested here can easily fall apart as you are effectively rebuilding Qt only to get a qmake pointing to the right path (patching which should have been done by the installer).

    And you surely don't have to restart your computer in either case
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.
