problem with ivf " mt.exe not found"

[flyhigher2009]

Hi, everyone. I am a new user with intel visual fortran. On my computer I installed visual studio 2005 and Intel Visual Fortran Compiler professional for Windows* Version 11.1.052.

Previoius they worked well. However, several days ago, a little problem happpened: when I debugged the code, the command line window couldn't show up. Then I uninstalled the intel compiler and MVS relatied programs. Now after re-installed the IVF compiler and MVS 2005, they didn't work. The error message "mt.exe not found" always showed up when debugging the programs generated before. I uninstall and re-install them several time but it didn't work. Could you guys tell what I should do. Thanks a lot.

mt.exe is the Manifest Tool which is run as part of the linking of the application. It should be found in the Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin folder. If it is there but the build does not find it, select Tools > Options > Intel Visual Fortran > Compilers and click Reset All. Exit and restart Visual Studio and see if that fixes the problem.

If mt.exe is not in that folder, then you have not correctly installed Visual Studio and should redo the install, making sure that the Visual C++ component is selected.

Hi, Steve, I re-installed all the componets above, but cannot find the mt.exe file in the folder that you mentioned. Could you please tell me why? Thanks.

In your original post, you siad you had 11.1.052, and in the newer post, 11.0.074. Which is it? For the 11.0.074, you have installed Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition, not a retail copy of VS2005. The 11.0 install with VSPPE should install mt.exe, but it's not clear to me just what you are trying to work with.

I'm sorry that I made it confused. The original one Iusedwas Intel Visual Fortran Compiler Professional 11.0.072 for Windows*+Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition - ENU. After the problem happened, I updated the compiler to 11.1.054.

Now I uninstalled all the compilers and reinstalled 11.0.072 again, but still cannot find the mt.exe file. When I debug the programs, the errorsstill show up.

I have reinstalled thme many times, but it didn't work.Are there other solutions to this problem?

Please do this. Uninstall the compiler and Visual Studio 2005 Professional Partner Edition. Download 11.1.054 making sure that you get the full product including Visual Studio 2008 Shell - currently that would be w_cprof_p_11.1.054.exe (though in the next few days I expect a new update to be available). Install this and it should provide Visual Studio 2008 as a development environment, with mt.exe. Let me know how that works.
