The IDE doesn't want to run my program on terminal

[lionking]

Firstly, I am working on Ubuntu v19.10.
I have created a simple c/c++ code and everything is good except when running my code to show the result of my code the following happened:



How to resolve that problem?

Hi,

(Which CodeLite version are you using?)

codelite-exec.sh is a temporary file created to contain any 'run' instructions; e.g.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
command="/full/path/to/my/binary";
${command}

If it wasn't created, that suggests something went wrong earlier.

Did you write your code in a CodeLite Project contained in a Workspace?

Did you successfully build your project before trying to run it?
Does the code run successfully in a terminal, outside CodeLite?

If none of the above seem relevant, what happens if you create a new Workspace, add a sample Project e.g. 'Console > Simple Executable', then build and run that?

Regards,

David

As a temporary workaround, try switching between the terminals.
Check Settings->Preferences->Terminal

And select a different one (you need to have it installed...)
Also, some recent changes were done to the Gnome Terminal, it would help to know which version of CodeLite you are using

I am using CodeLite v13.0.8

Yes, I have created a workspace then created a project.

Did you successfully build your project before trying to run it?

Yes, my project is built successfully before trying to run.

Does the code run successfully in a terminal, outside CodeLite?

I have tried to use another IDE (Netbeans v11.2) and I have created a similar project and it runs fine on the terminal without problems.

The same problem occurs.

Unfortunately, by default "gnome-terminal" is the default terminal but it doesn't work with codelite I don't know why?
I have installed "Konsole " and "lxterminal" and they both are worked well.

[lionking]

unfortunately, the problem returned again when opening my project and run it.
The problem occurs even with the other terminals (Konsole, lxterminal).

Is there a suggestion to solve that problem?

That's not what I meant. Try running your real project in a normal terminal. Open a terminal and do:
/full/path/to/your/project/binary

by default "gnome-terminal" is the default terminal but it doesn't work with codelite

It works fine, but only if it's installed . You can easily tell if it is, just open your normal terminal and do:
which gnome-terminal
If it is installed, it will print "/usr/bin/gnome-terminal"

I have installed "Konsole " and "lxterminal" and they both are worked well.

The problem occurs even with the other terminals (Konsole, lxterminal).

Do you mean, at first CodeLite ran your project OK when konsole/lxterminal were selected, but now the same terminals don't work? Or did they 'work well' for other things, but never for CodeLite?

Is there a suggestion to solve that problem?

I can't guess why terminals fail to work for your CodeLite on your ubuntu, but work well for other people. It must either be something different about your system, or about your Workspace/Project.
We can't test your system, but if you attach here, or pastebin somewhere, a tarball of your Project, we can test that.

Thank you for your reply.

there was a problem in my code but it has been resolved and CodeLite IDE returned to work again with "Konsole " and "lxterminal" terminals but the "gnome-terminal" terminal still doesn't work because of the same problem.

Yes, it is installed.

As I mentioned previously there was a problem in my code but after it has been resolved "konsole" and "lxterminal" returned to work again but the "gnome-terminal" terminal still doesn't work.

Thank you, I understand now.

I just tested 13.0.8 here and I get the same problem with gnome-terminal. As eranif implied earlier, it was a bug in this release, and was fixed 6 days ago: see https://github.com/eranif/codelite/pull/2421.

So you will need to continue using a different terminal until the next CodeLite release. Or, if you really want to use gnome-terminal, download and build the current git version, or revert to an older CodeLite.
