Fatal error when compiling Qt in Windows - visual-studio-2010

Question

I tried to build Qt 5.0.1 with MSVS2010 in Windows 7.
These are my steps:
Extract source code into C:\Qt\5.0.1
Start VS2010 command prompt
Type configure (this step took approximately 45 minute)
Type nmake
After an hour I get the following error:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDKUtilities\bin\x86\fxc.exe"
/nologo /E standardvs /T vs_2_0 /Fh shaders\standardvs.h ..\..\..\3rdparty\angle
\src\libGLESv2\shaders\Blit.vs
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDKUtiliti
es\bin\x86\fxc.exe' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0
\VC\bin\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x2'
Stop.
I searched online, and saw many solutions, but none of them solved my problem.
I even re-installed Windows and repeated those steps but I got the same error again.

Answer 1

You have spaces and parenthesis in your env paths. Try to use short path, you can get them by opening a Windows command prompt with cmd and type dir /X. Short names will be in front of corresponding directories
for example, if you have a script to set up your environment :
SET VISUALDIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0
SET PATH=%VISUALDIR%\VC\bin;%PATH%
becomes
SET VISUALDIR=C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1.0
SET PATH=%VISUALDIR%\VC\bin;%PATH%
If you have no script, the faulty path could be set in the default Windows PATH environment variable. Then you'll have to manually edit PATH variable and apply short paths here.
