As reported (and as yet unsolved) here:

www.pilotlogic.com/sitejoom/index.php/fo...it-compiler?start=12

I get exactly the same error with V4.20. If I try to use the 32bit compiler with the 64bit Lazarus. Now I just use the 32bit lazarus as a workaround.

You have the option to browse for/select the location of fpc.exe, why not, if it cannot find it, have the option to browse for/select fpc.cfg? I know it doesn't solve the root cause (of why fpc.cfg cannot be located when it is in the same folder as fpc.exe), but it would get those with 64bit lazarus wanting to have 32bit output going.....

Cheers,

Sir
By defaulf fpc.cfg is in
C:\codetyphon\fpc\bin\i386-win32\fpc.cfg
and
C:\codetyphon\fpc\bin\x86_64-win64\fpc.cfg

CT Lazarus-MAX search only in these directories for the fpc.cfg (the fix in ver 4.20)
If Lazarus-MAX don't find these files, is directory privileges problem in your PC

We use CodeTyphon on 10 Windows7-64 PC now, with out problem

If you install/Build CT with "Run as Administrator"
My suggestion is to Reinstall CT without "Run as Administrator"
but as user with Administrator privileges

"Run as Administrator" not give folders permissions to normal users

and please give us more info, we don't have the "magic sphere" here...

Yes I know you don't have the 'Magic Sphere' and I know it is a lot of work to do for free and it is appreciated, but I don't have the time at the moment to go through all of that again. See the link in the original post. I have been through all of your suggestions previously on v4.10. Others have reported the same issue at least on v4.10. Your last comment in the previous thread was:

So, my last suggestion:
-Check the permissions to FPC.CFG files and folders

cd C:\codetyphon\
ATTRIB /S /D -R -S -H *.*

And my last comment was:

I will try that, but before I do let me predict it will have no effect because the 32bit version of Lazarus uses the same 32bit compiler and works fine without any permissions issues.

Trying now......

Nope, same Error fpc.cfg missing message with the 64bit Lazarus and the 32bit compiler....

So there is some Deja Vu, a lot off tooing and froing with no result. I will continue to use the 32bit version with the 32bit compiler.

Thanks,
Kevin

Sir
to build with Lazarus-MAX 64 => win32 applications
you must use cross-build procedure,
you need Win64-i386-win32 toolchain. We don't release this toolchain yet...

We release only win32-x86_64-win64 toolchain to build with LazarusMax 32 => Win64 applications.

We use 64bit lazarusMax to create 64bit applications and 32bit LazarusMax to create 32bit applications

We add "build Win64-i386-win32 toolchain", to our CT To-Do list

so, I think the problem solved

Well that makes sense now that you tell me:

to build with Lazarus-MAX 64 => win32 applications
you must use cross-build procedure,

We release only win32-x86_64-win64 toolchain to build with LazarusMax 32 => Win64 applications.
We add "build Win64-i386-win32 toolchain", to our CT To-Do list

so, I think the problem solved

Well there is a workaround that allows building 32bit applications, the problem is scheduled to be solved, ie 32bit application creation from 64bit Lazarus.

Regardless, it's no big deal and thanks again for CT, we use it (and Lazarus) not because it's free (although that's a bonus), but because it's excellent.

Cheers,
Kevin
