Debugger doesn't work anymore
« on: August 02, 2016, 11:12:49 am »
I'm pretty sure it's just a minor issue, but I'm struggling for a day now to get the debugger running again.

I changed some code yesterday resulting in some NaN results I don't understand yet -> debugger time.

When i want to debug my code a console opens in sleep mode, codeblocks tells me terminal/console closed (Detected that the terminal/console has been closed, do you want to stop the debugging session?) and I get the following debugger log

So all in all the debugger is not really starting.
I tried debugging other codes and get the same problem. Guess reinstalling codeblocks would work, but that doesn't prevent me from doing the same mistake again.
I've read some threads concerning the debugger around here, but haven't really found my problem.

Looking forward to an answer.

Does it work if you execute the same commands in gdb started from terminal?

First of all thanks for your time!

Running gdb from console works fine. After specifying everything the code starts running until it hits the first breakpoint.

I'm not really used to working with gdb from console though. Guess I will try to find my error this way until I figure out how to get gdb running in codeblocks again.

Cheers.

Can you show me the log from the console?

p.s. keep in mind that because your locale is set to German C::B won't work correctly. It parses the gdb output and expects English messages! You have to reset the locale to English.

Using gbd from console looks like this

Hope this is the log you were asking for?!
The has code been compiled with codeblocks (using gcc) before. Breakpoint 1 is within an if statement I'm using for debugging now and is therefore skipped here, the other two are at functions that are possibly involved in my problem.

Thanks for the tip with my locale language. Will switch to english right away.

PS: Just tried debugging in C::B again and changing my locale language didn't do the trick. Also resetted to default in setting > debugger > GBD/CDB debugger.

Please try to replicate what commands cb is executing, so we can see which one is causing the problem.

At the end of the first log it says (now in english)

Code
[debug]> tty /dev/?
[debug]>>>>>>cb_gdb:
[debug]> run
[debug]/dev/?: No such file or directory.
[debug]During startup program exited with code 1.

[debug]>>>>>>cb_gdb:

[debug]> quit

Not sure, but it seems like gdb is trying to run the wrong file here?

The output is pretty messed up.
Can you run the same commands in terminal and tell me which one is causing the problem?

Alright. The gdb tty/ dev/? before the run is causing the problem..

This is now from console
Code

(gdb) tty /dev/?
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/lennart/Dokumente/IGVP-Rechner/FDTD-Toroidal/bin/Debug/FDTD-Toroidal 
/dev/?: No such file or directory.
During startup program exited with code 1.


It's looking for the right program which is in /home/lennart/Dokumente/IGVP-Rechner/FDTD-Toroidal/bin/Debug/FDTD-Toroidal, but can't find the terminal dev/?.

Interesting. What is your terminal command?
You can find it in Settings -> Environment -> General.

Terminal to launch console programs is konsole -e (seems to be still german) which is the standard terminal I got from kubuntu, but I think it was xterm some time ago. Shell to run commands in is  /bin/sh -c.

After changing the "Terminal to launch console programs" back to xterm -T $TITLE -e, the debugger seems to be working again, giving "warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted" before the program starts.
Strange.. I do remember running the debugger in the usual terminal. Possibly because locale was German for a while?

But it seems like the C::B debugger is working again. Thank you very much for your guidance!

Interesting. What version of konsole/kde are you running?

KDE is Kubuntu 16.04 and all i found out about the terminal is that its called org.kde.konsole (https://konsole.kde.org/). (I also have debain-xterm and debain-uxterm, but usually prefer the other one.)

In the info center there is:
KDE Plasma version: 5.5.5
QT-version: 5.5.1
Kernel version: 4.4.0-31-generic
OS type: 64 bit

"konsole --version" furthermore gives
Qt: 5.5.1
KDE Frameworks: 5.18.0
Konsole: 15.12.3

Not sure if that is helpful so here is also the output of "cat /proc/version"
Linux version 4.4.0-31-generic ([email protected]) (gcc version 5.3.1 20160413 (Ubuntu 5.3.1-14ubuntu2.1) ) #50-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 13 00:07:12 UTC 2016
