   Hi,
   I'm having a serious problem here, as I receive the mesage ''make.exe: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop.'' when trying to compile the project I made with programmers notepad 2. I have a deadline and though searches wherever I could, still cannot find the reason of this message. Any suggestions?

   Hello? Anybody there? I'm brand new here, because I ran into this same problem. I'm learning to program an AVR Butterfly (ATmega169) and using the WinAVR tools for the first time. This comes from a tutorial: Quick Start Guide for WinAVR and Butterfly. I followed all the directions including the one about not updating to latest versions before completeing.
   I have the hardware working and I copied the source code for "Blinky.c" using Programmers Notepad 2 version v2.0.5.48. The next direction was to "open Tools and click [WinAVR] Make All... and the fllowing error appeared:

   make.exe: *** No rule to make target Blinky.o', needed by Blinky.elf'. Stop.
   > Process Exit Code: 2

   Sending me on a journey that has led here.
   I notice noone has replyed to this in 2 months, so I'm copying to a new topic as well.

   I do have experience with embedded micros; Zilog's Encore and Renesas' M16C62 . But both have all the tools built into the compiler and the IDE. So I've never learned to use the command line and each tool.
   Hoping I don't have to wait 2 months for a reply...
   Thanks,
   Roger

   You are missing an appropriate "makefile" in your directory that contains the source .c code. It needs to be copied from the "sample" directory then modified to the correct processor and the name of the source .c code
   good luck
