Process Terminated with Status 127

[davidklecker]

I'm getting a strange error that hopefully someone might be able to help me troubleshoot. Let's start with the basic setup that I have. I'm using Code:Blocks 13 on Ubuntu 16 LTS, and using wxWidgets 3.0.2. I have compiled wxWidgets under a basic setup with ../configure --enable-webview. My 'wx-config --cxxflags' and 'wx-config --lib all' do return the proper values from the terminal as does wx-config --version. I have also built a debug version for wxWidgets. I can create a basic wxWidgets application. It compiles, links, and executes. I have my global variables defined correctly and the build options I believe are okay.

The issue stems from trying to build and execute my application. It compiles, it links but it quits immediately on status 127. I looked into this status which tells me that there is a problem with my $PATH or a typo which is cryptic. I see that sometimes people forget to include g++ and status 127 tells them of this disconnect. That's not issue with me. In fact Code::Blocks doesn't tell me anything related to what may be going on. There are a few clues though that might help.

If I use `wx-config --libs all` for my linker properties when building, I get a strange error: "cannot find -lwx_gtk2u_media-3.0" This is strange because I don't believe I am using code that would need this library or I would see that when linking and it would tell me the methods that are undefined. Now I checked and I do not have media-3.0 as a library. I do have the development library installed on this machine so I am at a loss why this is coming up.

Now if I just put the contents of wx-config --libs all into the linker properties I get a different error. I get a process terminated on status 127. I think the two issues are related somehow but I'm not sure which direction to head to troubleshoot and resolve it.

On the command line,

What does this return?

Code Select Expand


which wx-config


For me it returns this.

Code Select Expand


/usr/bin/wx-config

Once you get wx-config so it returns the correct location with which.

Then, using this to select the correct wxWidgets installation can be done. Edit: Also see link http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Installing_Code::Blocks_from_source_on_Linux

Code Select Expand


update-alternatives --config wx-config

Do you have xterm installed ?
If not do so or make sure, that you have a valid "Terminal to launch ..." set in "Settings -> Environment-> General settings".
