Ubuntu Gnome CodeBlocks "Couldn't create project directory" many tries

(1/1)

davidswd:
I tried many times. Never works. Googled problem. Can't find any answer.
Seems to be running well. I must be entering something wrong.
Tried many things.
Nothing works.
Hard to believe no one else has this problem.
I am a Linux newbie.

Whatever I try I get  "Couldn't create the project directory"

Jenna:
Please post the exact steps to reproduce, including the paths and names you have tried.

If you are a Windows user and trying to use a Windows-formatted partition (e.g. NTFS) this sort of thing can happen (permission problems). I recommend formatting the partition to a linux format like e.g. ext4 to avoid such problems.

If it works under your home folder, it likely is a permission/file system problem.
