Fresh Install - No Valid QT VersionSDKMaintenanceTool

[Atomic_Sheep]

Hi guys, I just reinstalled my whole computer and tried installing Qt IDE. I had it on my old install and it worked fine. I don't remember any issues when installing it last time. This time however, I've encountered 2 problems.

I went to the http://qt.nokia.com/downloads site and d/l the only Windows Offline installer file that available which was Qt SDK 1.2.1. Installed it on my non system partition i.e. D drive (system Partition is C) in the D:/QtSDK folder

1.) Upon launching I got my first error:

Plugin initialization failed: Could not find maintenance tool at 'D:\QtSDK/SDKMaintenanceTool.exe'. Check your installation.

I had a look around and it appears to be a bug, however I couldn't find any solutions for it. In the D:/QtSDK/temp folder, I found SDKMaintenanceToolBase installer but when I click on it, nothing happens...

2.) Second problem is that I don't have a valid Qt version. Whenever I try to create a new project it comes up with that error and I'm unable to proceed and when I open old project, I can't compile anything.

Not sure how to solve these problems.

Well the latest Qt installer for windows definitely doesn't work... at least for me. I redownloaded it, deleted the old installation from my hard drive by pressing delete (because you need the SDKMaintenanceTools to uninstall it which as I said, didn't install proerply in the first place) and after that I installed an older version which appears to be working fine now.

I have a student with the exact same problem. I wonder where you found an earlier version of Qt Creator?

I put all my downloads in the downloads folder... it's a big folder but comes in handy once in a while... in other words, I had an older version lying around.
