DS development > Programmer's Notepad Problems

#176055 - gameporter - Mon Mar 28, 2011 6:10 pm

Hi all,

I'm having a lot of problems with Programmer's Notepad. No matter what I try, there is always a "Can't find the file specified" error. I reinstalled PN; it didn't help. What should I do?

perhaps there's a space on the file path ?

Even if I compile a simple Hello World program it still gives me that error.

to clarify Ben_j's question: where are the files located on your computer? If the directories or files have spaces in their names - you will have this problem. this applies both to the devkitarm installation as well as the project you are trying to compile.

The only folder that has spaces is the folder that contains PN. I removed the space and nothing changed.

Is the fact that PN is on a flash drive and used on different PCs changing anything?

Even reinstalling the whole thing still doesn't help. What's going on? If there's no way to fix this, I have another question: How do I navigate through folders on msys?

Just run the devkitPro Updater.

Each computer needs all those files installed and the correct environment variables. It's all created by the installer.

I uninstalled all my devkitPro stuff, redownloaded the installer, and reinstalled the setup and it still doesn't work. I'm not very happy with my computer right now.
