Problem initiating execution in Debug mode

(1/1)

rudolf128:
I used Code::Blocks to develop several programs about 2 years ago, without problems.
Now, trying to continue the development of a program, I got the following when trying to start it:

Active debugger config: GDB/CDB debugger:Default
Building to ensure sources are up-to-date
Selecting target:
Debug
Adding source dir: e:\WavCompil\Composer\
Adding source dir: e:\WavCompil\Composer\

Changing directory to: e:/WavCompil/Composer/.

[debug]Command-line: gdb. exe -nx -fullname -quiet  -args e:/WavCompil/Composer/bin/Debug/Composer.exe
[debug]Working dir : e:\WavCompil\Composer

Starting debugger: gdb. exe -nx -fullname -quiet  -args e:/WavCompil/Composer/bin/Debug/Composer.exe
failed

Compiling showed no errors.

I am using now Windows 10 64 bits on a 64 bits machine, while before I had a 32 bits machine and Windows XP, I recall.

Please notice the  blank space in ***gdb. exe*** in the previous to last line of the error report. I think this is the cause of the problem. How can I fix it?
I am running CODE::BLOCKS as it appears in the web page, Build Dec 25 2017, 07:45:27 - wx 2.8(Windows, Unicode) - 32 bits.

BlueHazzard:
Have you rebuild your program first? If you have used a older compiler to compiler the application it may not work with the current gdb.

You can check the gdb.exe in Settings->Debugger->gdb on the left..

Pecan:
Select MainMenu/Settings/Debugger/GDB/CDB Debugger/Default

Make sure the Execution Path: entry does not have a blank in it.

Many thanks! By changing the default path as you said, it works fine!
