[Qt-creator] (Windows) CDB failing in "setup engine"

[David Schulz]

exit code -1073741515 is the same as C0000135 Program can't start because XYZ is missing
This usually happens when a required dll is missing. Can you just start your application via run?

To find the missing dll you can either use dependency walker or open a cmd with the run environment from Project Settings > Run > Environment > Open Terminal and run your application an error message should popup telling you which dlls are missing.

Thanks David.

Here's a pastebin: https://pastebin.com/Efwb3mEC

eERROR: Process crashed
dCDB PROCESS FINISHED, status 1, exit code -1073741515

> The symbol search path error can be ignored.

Is there a way to add a note in the output around that point that it is expected? (Or - less optimal - add to the text at the top?) Spent a good while trying to track that down.

Hi Andy,

The symbol search path error can be ignored. This happens just because we want to prevent that cdb calls home for every module that is loaded into the debugger.
Can you paste the full debugger log on your favorite code paster or open a bug report and attach the debugger log?

Greetings
David

I have CDB installed and it is properly set up in the kit. It's been working until recently. I recently updated to QtC 4.14. (I primarily develop on macOS, then work on Windows 10, so I'm not using it daily - not sure exactly when this broke.)

Debugger log:

Looks like it has something to do with the "symbol search path", but as far as I know I'm not doing anything to that.

I have:

- checked that it's using the x64 not the x86 version
- repaired Windows 10 SDK 10.1.19041.1
- reinstalled Windows 10 SDK 10.1.19041.1

Any idea what to try next?
