error #10036

[mh437]

Hi all,

Does anybody know how to fix error #10036?

When I tiped "ifort filename.f90", then the following massage showed up:

ifort: error #10036: unable to run '\\Bin'

It should be noted that I have installed microsoft visual C++ express edition before Intel Visual fortran (wc_fc_p_10.0.025.ia32)

Thank you very much

You must fill in the actual path for the v[cs]vars32 and linker. The -Qvc7.1 should not be used if you have VS Express 2005, (or 2008, if you would use a more recent ifort), and the automatic configuration might work better with the newer ones. Following are for recent versions; set the paths according to your choice of Visual Studio:

-Qlocation,link,"C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VCbin"

@call "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0Common7Toolsvsvars32.bat"

You say you installed "Visual C++ Express Edition". Was that the 2008 version? 10.0 doesn't recognize that, which means that the installer didn't find a supported Microsoft environment. This is why you're having the problem.

10.0 is quite old now - 11.1 is current. Unless you're using a Student license, you should be able to download the "full" installer of 10.0 (or a later version) that includes the Microsoft tools.

You might be able to make this work by editing ifortvars.bat and replacing:

REM @call "BinVcvars32.bat"
echo Unable to find Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1 or higher.

With an @call line that invokes the vcvars32.bat of your Visual C++ Express Edition. You can remove or comment out the -Qlocation,link line from ifortvars.cfg.

Hi Steve,

Thank you very much for replying.

You right! I installed visual C++ Express 2008 Edition and I have only a student license.

Then I modified ifortrvars.bat and ifort.cfg as following your direction. After that I tried to type "ifort filename.f90", then there was still another error massage: "ifort: error #10036: unable to run 'link'".

I would really appreciate if you could tell me how to fix all the problem.

Best,

Masaki

I think you're ignoring our advice. If you have any non-Microsoft link on the system, you will surely need the Microsoft link path in ifort.cfg. VS 2008 is not supported by compilers which pre-date its release, but you could try the ifort.cfg setup, as your error message clearly shows the need for it.

Tim,

Thank you for your kind comment.

You right. I have missed following your direction completely. Now I have modified ifortvars.bat and ifort.cfg.

Then I tiped "ifort filename.f90", and it said "Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 x86 tools.".

I could not get an execution file so far. I feel I am pretty close to my goal. Please tell me what I should do next.

Your comment rescued me. Thank you very much.

If you are getting that line with "ifort" then you did something wrong, such as save ifortvars.bat as ifort.bat. I know in current versions the -Qlocation line in ifort.cfg is not required, but it might be in 10.0.
