I have installed code warrior UIQ2.1 for Sony P800 and Symbian OS v6.1 SDK for nokia 3650 and I am getting the same error for both.
For P800 example i am adding @UIQ_21:com.symbian.UIQ as an argument to bldmake bldfiles.
Also I am not able to use 'devices -setdefault @UIQ_21:com.symbian.UIQ' to set the default device. It gives me an error: unable to access devices.xml!

Please Help me out :? . I have tried to reinstalled the Codewarrior but the problem persists.

Do you have cygwin installed on your machine? If so, the crash could be due to an incompatible cygwin1.dll that comes with the nokia sdk. Just rename the cygwin1.dll file in C:\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v20\Epoc32\gcc\bin to something like incompatible.cygwin1.dll.

That should fix it.

Hi...I donno whether u guys find out the actual problem or not but that "CPP.exe" error is only for non-admin users. to run bladmake command u need to have administrator privileges or atleats Superuser priviliges.
