Process terminated with status 255 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)

Hi,

i installed CodeBlocks Build Apr. 22 2008 on Ubuntu 7.10,because i think CodeBlocks is a nice,small IDE.
However,when i want to build and run a new console application, i always get the following error:
"Process terminated with status 255 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)".
I am sure,that there is no syntax error,because i build and run the sourcecode which is generated when i create a new console application....

I am using the Gnu GCC Compiler.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hey, this is great. I'm not the only one with this error!  8)

My thread is here: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,8274.0.html

Except I'm using Visual C++ compiler.

Yes, if there are any developers of CodeBlocks here offering support (concept!), we'd love to know what this means. Thanks!

Please provide a minimal sample project and a step-by-step instruction how to reproduce. "Error 255" means nothing to me (at least) without source code.

Hi,

i did this:

1.) i created a new project ( File -->New-->Project-->console application)
2.) in the wizard i selected C++ and Gnu GCC Compiler

Then,a new project and a source file (main.cpp) is created.
The sourcefile contains the following source code:


--- Code: ---#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
    return 0;
}
--- End code ---

After pressing the F9 Button (Build and Run), i get the "Error 255".

Thanks!

Hi Bernhard,

do you have xterm installed ?

If not you get this message when running a console project from C::B.

The easiest solution would be to run

--- Code: ---apt-get install xterm

--- End code ---

as root or via sudo.

You can use any other terminal-emulator, but then you have to fix the instruction in the "Settings -> Environment... > Terminal to launch console programs:" textfield.
