Codeblocks just builds and never runs the program

I am pretty new to codeblocks so i am probably doing some stupid mistake. I am using codeblocks on ubuntu for debugging my C code.

However I cannot manage to run my C program in codeblocks. So sofar I have loaded an external makefile (in Project--Properties), have  linked an external library. The program gets the link of an input file as an input so i added it under Project - set programs arugments and added /home/Docs/input.txt.

Now when I press run, first of all codeblocks always tells me the project has not have been build and then builts it, does not return any mistakes in the build.log tab:

Process terminated with status 0 (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))
0 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s))


but however never runs the program..


I also tried to put some breakpoints and run it and just checked the output, I get one red output "Invalid manifest file for: wxsSmithPlot" but however all the other outputs seem to be normal to me

i don't know how this works with custom make files but you will have to set your output file (your executable) in Project->Properties->Build targets->Output filename because if you use a custom make file codeblocks does not know where your output file is and how to execute it...
