Compiler not found

[the_drow]

I configured MinGW to Code::Blocks correctly.
I also checked that it works using the command line.
I for some reason can't compile with any compiler at all.
Not even with VC++.
Is this a known issue?
Does anyone knows how to solve it?
This is the error I'm getting:

    Static library - MinGW RELEASE" uses an invalid compiler. Skipping... Nothing to be done.

Both cannot be true. C::B complains like that if it cannot find the compiler's executables. So you did one of the following wrong:
1.) You did not setup the tool chain path's correctly
2.) You did not setup the names of the executables correctly
3.) You did forget to e.g. install the G++ compiler for MinGW/GCC. Notice that this compiler suite is splitted into many parts: One for C, one for C++, one for Fortran, one for binutils etc...

(Btw: in newer versions the error message is more  more descriptive.)

Anyways: Please: next time search the forums before you post. This has been answered many times. We are usually locking such topics as they violate our forum rules. But as you have posted the first time I gave you this hint.

Check, if compiler executables are set properly: http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/Code_Blocks_Compiler_Setup
And try to test it with some "hello world" program, so you eliminate problems with project target settings.
