I was making a sleeping detection program with GUI. I decided to choose Qt for the project. I was able to build the program but when I ran it, this message popped up which I had no idea what was wrong.
Starting
C:\Users\Helianthus\Documents\QtProject\build-facelandmark-Desktop_Qt_5_11_1_MinGW_32bit-Release\release\facelandmark.exe...
Failed to start program. Path or permissions wrong?
C:/Users/Helianthus/Documents/QtProject/build-facelandmark-Desktop_Qt_5_11_1_MinGW_32bit-Release/release/facelandmark.exe
exited with code -1
The process failed to start. Either the invoked program
"C:/Users/Helianthus/Documents/QtProject/build-facelandmark-Desktop_Qt_5_11_1_MinGW_32bit-Release/release/facelandmark.exe"
is missing, or you may have insufficient permissions to invoke the
program.
Open the Qt installation path(such as:'C:\Qt\Qt5.14.2\Tools\QtCreator\bin').
Right click on the 'QtCreate.exe' program.
Select 'Attributes' or 'Property' on the Menu.
Select 'Compatibility' tab on the popup window.
Click 'Change settings for all users' button.
Check 'Run as administrator'.
Click 'OK' to close all the popup window.
Restart QtCreator, you will find it works correctly.
Just had the same problem, I fixed it by doing the following:
Go to Tools -> Options -> Buid & Run, if you scroll down the bottom of the dialog, there is a dropdown field called Build Before Deploying, you just need to set that to Build only the application to be run, then run the application again.

I'm currently new to C++ and I created a Hello World in Eclipse C/C++ but all It says in the Console is: Info: Nothing to Build for [project name].... How to fix this? Yes, I have done everything like setting up the variables of my mingw and all that and I still get this message on my Console... I searched all of this stuff on the Internet but It didn't quite help...
You have your console view set to the wrong console.
There is a build console and the normal output console. It should switch to the output console when running, automatically (but, any ways, it didn't).
On the console view there is a set of buttons, one of which looks like a little monitor. If you click on the little arrow next to that you can select the output console for your program:
Recently, Eclipse SDK decided to kill my brain cells.
Out of the blue, it just stopped pausing at breakpoints. I do see it hit the breakpoint, but right then window loses focus and in the thread/callstack window it shows
MyApp [C/C++ Application]
MyApp [18556][cores:1]
Thread [2] (Running : Container)
Thread [1] (Running : User Request)
gdb
I see when i hits my breakpoint and it takes a blink of an eye before it goes into above state. My app stops responding and working and i have to kill it.
My app is a non GUI application which runs in linux as a background task, it reads and writes files, performs communication through COM and TCP/UDP. No user input is ever requested or anything like that.
There are tons of people who have problems with eclipse having problems with breakpoints, however they all are about java projects and or windows version of eclipse and none of the provided solutions work for me.
So far i have:
Rebuilt index.
Cleaned and rebuild project.
Deleted all debug files, makefile, binary and built again.
Cleared all breakpoints.
Made sure it was not set to ignore breakpoints.
and probably more which i already forgot.
Eclipse version is 4.2.1
Linux: Arch linux which was not updated for like 2 years now.
Project is C++.
What other information do i need to provide?
How can i solve this problem. I can't debug my application :(
I resolved this problem in this way: "Run" -> "Debug Configuration" -> select you configuration -> Debugger.
Then check the checkbox which shows "Use external console for inferior (open a new console window for input/output)".
I code in c++ using eclipse cdt.
Every time i make changes i have to press this combination:
ctrl+s - save(without saving, just hitting the run button runs the
old version of code)
build(hammer button)
run
I remember i could just hit the run button - and it would do all 3 steps - save, build,run
How to make the run button achieve and do all this work?
This is configurable in the "Run Configurations" settings.
From the toolbar, go to Run -> Run Configurations...
Select your run configuration on the left
On the "Main" tab on the right, look for "Build (if required) before launching"
Background:
My C++ application developed by VS2008 and use the VS setup project to create installer for that. After installation it will create two shortcuts to application. one is in user desktop and second one is in start menu. Application(myApp.exe) installed to the Program files directory.
Question: If I right click on the icons in the start menu, there is a option Run as Administrator for most of them. But if I right click on the shortcut that related to my application. It doesn't show Run as Administrator. How to fix this?
Edit: But if i right click on the myApp.exe in the Program files, it shows "Run as Administrator".
Set your embedded manifest to require administrator. On the project property page:
...on the (highlighted) UAC Execution Level, change asInvoker to requireAdministrator. Build your project to embed the new manifest, and it should be ready to do its thing.
Oh -- I didn't think to do it here, but in the Configuration drop-down, you probably want to select All Configurations, instead of the (default) Active configuration that's selected in the screen shot. Gets seriously annoying -- you think you've got things fixed, then you change to "Release" and a bunch of stuff suddenly breaks, and you have to go through figuring out what you'd changed, and edit those changes into the Release configuration as well.
In manifest file there is option "requestedExecutionLevel" and "UIAccess" which will manage it.
I found the answer for this after so much testing and searching. So here I mention it for use of any one.
Windows only shows Run as Administrator in the context menu for that shortcuts those are directly targeting to some exe file.
If you use VS deployment (setup) project to create your installation with desktop and start menu shortcuts. Those shortcuts not targeting to exe (Application.exe) file.
Instead of that shortcuts targeting to application folder (MS office 2007 also same). This is called installation-on-demand and advertisement. Here is the more details.
This will help your application to repair from file missing (pray Google for more).
So we have to disable this feature if you want to target your shortcuts directly to exe file.
For this you can use command prompt or some tool. here is how to do it.
Nirmally windows installer having a exe and a msi.
These setting are stored at at msi generated with setup file.
So You have to alter the file and add the entry DISABLEADVTSHORTCUTS=1 to property table.
Using Command prompt:
msiexec /i <path to your msi> DISABLEADVTSHORTCUTS=1
Using Orca Tool:(Meny other tools also there)
Download Orca tool from here and install it.
Right click your *.msi file and click edit with orca.
Go to property table and add new entry DISABLEADVTSHORTCUTS and value is 1 , save and close.
Now you done.
Install using setup.exe file and check the target of the shortcuts. those are directly target to the exe file in application folder.
Now if you right click on the shortcuts those shows Run as Administrator option in context menu.
Note: Doing this you will gain Run as Administrator but scarify the windows auto repair capability.
I am using Eclipse with C++. When I run the program, I get the following message in my Console window:
**** Build of configuration Debug for project Disks Repulsion ****
**** Internal Builder is used for build ****
Nothing to build for Disks Repulsion
I makes changes to the program and run it again, and this time I get following message:
**** Build of configuration Debug for project Disks Repulsion ****
**** Internal Builder is used for build ****
g++ -oDisksRepulsion.exe DisksRepulsion.o -lopengl32 -lglu32 -lglut32
C:\MinGW\bin..\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5........\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot open output file DisksRepulsion.exe: Permission denied
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Build error occurred, build is stopped
Time consumed: 103 ms.
When I first ran the program, it started my program (I can see it running in my Window Task Manager), but there is no output being sent to the console.
After making changes to my program, the program is still running in the background, so I get the "Permission denied" error, when I try to run the program. I can make the error go away by ending the instances via task manager. However, when I run the program, I still don't see any output being sent to the console.
Yesterday, I was able to see the output in my console, but don't know why I cannot see it today. Also, when I saw my output, the cursor's focus did not change from the code to the console. I dislike having to do it manually.
I also don't like that when I make changes to my program, and run it again, that the program is not automatically terminated on its own.
I have used VC++ and I prefer the window Dos for output. So, I wanted to know if there is anyway in Eclipse to send the output to Windows Command Prompt, since I know that the instance of the .exe is really gone when I close the program. It automatically gets cursor's focus. I will also be able to get some output.
I installed MinGW with MaSYS or something, to compile the program.
It sounds like your application isn't terminating on its own and you didn't build in any sort of interface that would allow you to kill the program. This sounds like a bug in your code and not an Eclipse issue. If issuing a Ctrl+C in the console won't kill your program, then look into coding something that will let you kill your app with keystroke or input sequence.
If you want to run your app in a command console, then open a normal command console, browse to the folder containing your project, and run the compiled executable from the console instead of doing it through the Eclipse interface.
A simple solution, which I've been using for ages now, is opening a command prompt yourself and running the executable manually. An advantage of this method is that you can set your "DOS" window's size to anything you want. (Right now I'm using a 120x50 window with 8192 lines of scrollback buffer.) Another one is that you will never lose your console output; in fact, you'll be able to see outputs from past runs. (8192 lines is A LOT unless you're printf-debugging a tight loop.)
An alternative to terminating your program from the taskbar is using the red icons on the top right corner of the Eclipse "Console" window.
Is your program's entrypoint main() or WinMain()? There may also be a setting/link option for the "subsystem," console or Windows I think they're called in Visual Studio.
Anyway, if your program is starting up via WinMain, the expectation is that you'll have a Windows form of some sort through which the user can control the program. If you use main(), then your program should automatically trigger the opening of a console window.
Look up AllocConsole() on MSDN (or google it) if you are using WinMain() intentionally and want a console window to also open up. There's some trickery also available via google search that can hook stdout to this console, but at this time I don't remember what it is. (You basically redirect the stdout handle to your new console.)
Good luck.
