C++ Netbeans Unable to compile

Question

I am currently using Netbeans 7.4, MinGw and had been having problems for my first compilation. It says, mkdir stops responding whenever I try to compile and then the following debug log appears.

"/C/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/make.exe" -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk QMAKE= SUBPROJECTS= .build-conf

make.exe[1]: Entering directory `/d/NetBeans/Welcome_1'

"/C/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/make.exe"  -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk dist/Debug/MinGW-Windows

/welcome_1.exe

make.exe[2]: Entering directory `/d/NetBeans/Welcome_1'

mkdir -p build/Debug/MinGW-Windows

0 [main] mkdir 3296 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to mkdir.exe.stackdump

make.exe[2]: *** [build/Debug/MinGW-Windows/welcome.o] Error 5

make.exe[2]: Leaving directory `/d/NetBeans/Welcome_1'

make.exe[1]: *** [.build-conf] Error 2

make.exe[1]: Leaving directory `/d/NetBeans/Welcome_1'

make: *** [.build-impl] Error 2


BUILD FAILED (exit value 2, total time: 3s)

Below here is my compiler paths. enter image description here

Please help.

Changed make command path to C:\msys\1.0\bin\make.exe and encounterd the following error.

"/C/msys/1.0/bin/make.exe" -f nbproject/Makefile-Debug.mk QMAKE= SUBPROJECTS= .build-conf

"Error 5" means "permission denied": you cannot write to or create "build/Debug/MinGW-Windows/welcome.o". — FoggyDay, Jan 14 '14 at 05:36
I think my mkdir crashed thats why the folder is not created and therefore permission is not granted to create. — nubbear, Jan 15 '14 at 01:34
You may have the same issue reported here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9850381/compile-in-netbeans-7-1. In that case it reported "Error 2", not the "Error 5" that you are seeing. It may be worth a try anyway. — Christian Garbin, Jan 15 '14 at 02:28

I got it fixed by installing more MinGw packages. Must have missed some packs while downloading. I also tried rekeying my Path in environment variables.Thanks alot for helping!

I have the same errors and used the basic setup installation for mingw. What additional packages need to be installed since mingw has a long list of packages.

Did you try setting windows path environment variables? – nubbear Jan 26 '15 at 20:47
You might want to re-download your minGW packages again, there might be some errors and missing packages. If you can, try a different mirror to download. – nubbear Feb 02 '15 at 13:35
