Title: Can't Get Debugger to Work
Post by: JoeH on October 10, 2025, 06:14:06 am

I have tried several times to use the debugging capability of Code::Blocks, but I cannot get it to work.  I am using version 25.03 on Windows 11.  Most recently, I tried to follow a YouTube "How To" video with no better luck.  The small C language test program will compile (Debug Build Target selected) and execute successfully.  However, when I try to run the debugger, it appears that Code::Blocks tries to rebuild the code and fails.  Is there something else besides selecting the Debug build target that must be done before the debugger will work?

I'm not sure how you configure the debugger, and I don't know what is the exactly error, can you show us some log message about debugger? It is normally in the "Debugger" output panel in the bottom of the IDE window.
