No such file or directory - New Install

Post by IvanisIvan »

Every time I come back to FreeBASIC I have to pull some evil voodoo magic to make FBIDE to compile code. I have since got a new computer and upon installing both the IDE and the latest 64bit version of FreeBASIC (9.3.0), I have found the following issue:

Code: Select all

Command executed:
"G:\New folder\FreeBASIC\FreeBASIC-1.08.0-winlibs-gcc-9.3.0\fbc64.exe" "G:\New folder\FreeBASIC\FBIde0.4.6r4\FBIDETEMP.bas"

Compiler output:
New: error: folder\FreeBASIC\FreeBASIC-1.08.0-winlibs-gcc-9.3.0\bin\win64\gcc.exe: No such file or directory
How do I resolve this issue???

Try to remove the space in the first directory name for your installation:
New_Folder
for example.

Hi Ivan

Just restarted BASIC after many years away and have downloaded the compiler and IDE.

Given you restarted recently can you give me some advice as where in windows do I place them. And in what order.

Best wishes

Sorry if this is too late but I've just seen it. I honestly placed it on my desktop and made sure the slashes were facing the right direction and had no spaces in my path/folder names.
