Qt 5.0.1 MinGW - programs does not launch - exited with code 0xc0000139

[Sébastien]

Hello,

I have been a Qt user for years, even though I am new in this forum. I just downloaded Qt 5.0.1 for MinGW. I usually use GCC 4.7.2 to enjoy the last C++11 features. Before downloading Qt 5, I used Qt 4.8.4, and had to compile it myself for GCC 4.7.2.

But now Digia provides binaries for Qt 5. I just installed it, and tried to run a simple program (template GUI project generated by Qt Creator). The program compiles perfectly, but fails to launch. I get a window saying the program has exited with code 0xc0000139. With further investigation, I see that the entry point __gxx_personality_sj0 could not be located in the dynamic link library icuin49.dll. The error really looks like a binary compatibility problem.

I've googled the error and found nothing. It looks like I am the only one with that issue. I use Windows 8 64 bits. I downloaded Qt 5.0.1 for MinGW 32bits, and I compiled my program with MinGW too. The program does not launch, whether I compile it with the version of GCC I installed by myself (4.7.2) or with the GCC version provided by Qt (which is supposed to be the same) :s.

I don't really see what I could do to solve that issue. I could try to re-compile Qt 5 with "my" GCC, but it will take hours and I don't see how it will change anything since my GCC version and Qt's are the same.

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks a lot.
Sébastien.

If the versions are the same, why are you using "yours" instead of "Qt's"?

[Sébastien]

Thanks for the reply.

I used Qt's first, and it didn't work. Then I tried mine, just to check, and it didn't work either :s.

Are you trying to launch the program from within QtCreator or manually?

[Sébastien]

When I launch from Qt Creator, in debug mode, I get the window "the program has exited with code 0xc0000139".
In release mode, the program crashes when it launches, and "exited with code -1073741511" is written in the console.

When I launch the program manually, after copying every dll supplied by Qt5 in the Qt/5.0.1/MinGW/bin folder, I get the message: "the entry point __gxx_personality_sj0 could not be located in the dynamic link library icuin49.dll".

Thanks for your reply!

It seems to me you are building and running the project with two different compiler runtimes. I would suggest a drastic approach -- uninstall every Qt and MinGW instance you have and (re)install only one Qt with MinGW set.

Hi,

I did what you said, and it worked. I renamed my MinGW folder, and discovered that QtCreator was unable to find some exe then, so it did use my GCC. I solved the issue. QtCreator set by default my version of GCC as the version to use, instead of its :s I hadn't noticed.

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Same problem here. I just installed QT and I was trying to run the examples. I am using QT 5.0.1 and QT creator 2.7.0. I am using default QT MinGW compiler.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think you have the same problem because OP had two compilers installed and was mixing the two. You seem to have just one compiler installed.
