Error while building project when executing build step 'Make'

问题

I've just installed Qt SDK 1.2.1 on my PC. I created a new project as a test:

File > New File or Project... > Other Project > Plain C++ Project

I chose these build settings:

Qt Creator generated this .pro file:

TEMPLATE = app
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= qt

SOURCES += main.cpp

and this main.cpp file:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
    return 0;
}

The build fails:

Error while building project test (target: Desktop)
When executing build step 'Make'

I've tried running the Qt 4.8.1 for Desktop (MSVC 2008) batch script before starting Qt Creator and checking the Projects > Build Settings > Build Environment > Using System Environment > Clear System Environment without success.

My PATH variable after installing Qt SDK 1.2.1:

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\jEdit;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files\doxygen\bin;C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Cg\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0

My computer is running Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 2). The version of Qt Creator that ships with Qt SDK 1.2.1 is 2.4.1.

Looks like cl is either not installed on your system, or needs to be added to the PATH environment variable. Try to find the cl.exe binary somewhere in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio [version]\ and add the directory that contains that binary to your PATH.
