Fresh installation --> none-eabi-g++ and arm-none-eabi-gcc not found
The problem I was having with Mars were certain menu panels were hanging and etither not opening and or not functioning when they did.
Also I had used Luna before so I am used to it.
I was having issues of Mars not finding the complier too!!!
And unfortunately I am to much of a noob to understand fully why this was happening.
I think that I did finally get it to work but it wouldn’t create the .bin files for me and only came up with some kind of .elf file.
Others have reported such bugs too of trying to get Mars to work and all of the examples I had found that did work, they were using Luna.
I had seen one suggestion with the same issues and they said to use Luna.
This was strictly for Linux and I haven’t seen any reports of troubles with windows yet.
So I switch back to Luna and had a Blinky example working the first time around.
Mars may be working fine in windows I only had it installed there for a brief time to just practice some simple C code.
When I switched back to luna I was able to install the proper arm-none-eabi compiler right from the setup menus of ST Workbench and it worked exactly as it should.
I have not tried Mars again since but now that I do know all of the proper steps to get it working I guess I should give Mars another try.
Anyhow in case you have not seen my thread I describe each exact step in order to get it working in Luna, If a recall Mars was very similar if not the same.
Here is that thread so that you can look through it and maybe there is something there to help you when your setting up the Mars version.

My piont was that the First time I had tried to set it up I already had the complier in my system but the IDE was not finding it no matter what I did.
I am not good with setting paths yet.
By choosing the right things while setting up STW I didn’t have to set any path’s and it every thing was setup properly and it worked fine the First time.
Cheers!!
