Problem in debugging on Code::Blocks via gdr(Cygwin)

[christian.cabizza]

Hi, I still have in my just installed IDE the known problem:

Error creating process /cygdrive/c/Users/CHRIST~1.CAB/ONEDRI~1/DOCUME~1/Proj/Test/Test/C:/Users/CHRIST~1.CAB/ONEDRI~1/DOCUME~1/Proj/Test/Test/bin/Debug/Test.exe, (error 2).

This is Cygwin version:
3.3.5-341.x86_64

C::B infos
Name             : Code::Blocks
Version          : 20.03-r11983
SDK Version      : 2.0.0
Scintilla Version: 3.7.5
Author           : The Code::Blocks Team
E-mail           : info@codeblocks.org
Website          : http://www.codeblocks.org

wxWidgets Library (wxMSW port)
Version 3.1.3 (Unicode: wchar_t, debug level: 1),
compiled at Nov  1 2019 18:53:26

Runtime version of toolkit used is 10.0.

Cygwin is installed in the default directory c:\cygwin64\ and bin directory is correctly addressed in PATH env variable.

May you help me?

Duplicated the problem with CB 20.03.

The problem did not exist with the May 15 Nightly build.

CB 20.03 and Cygwin will allow you to build apps, BUT will NOT allow you do debug anything. This was fixed last year in the nightly build around Aug/Sep from memory (I did the changes). As such please grab the nightly build from the nightly build forum and follow the instructions on the first page of the latest nightly thread and try again.
Also check your path does not include spaces or any non ascii characters as these could cause issues. The path has looks to be a onedrive (ONEDRI~1) in it, which could be an issue if it is a mapped drive to the MS onedrive cloud storage.
I would suggest a going back to a simple hello world test in say C:\test to ensure you have Cygwin and C::B working together first.
