Error in basic C++ program running in Netbeans IDE with Cygwin - c++

I recently started learning C++ and I installed Netbeans IDE 6.9.1 and also the Cygwin compiler packages and configured them, and added Cygwin to my environment variable PATH like the instructions told me to.
I wrote a basic "Hello World" program and when I press Ctrl+F5 to "Debug Main Project" it seems to build fine but the black console/command prompt window flashes then disappears.
Then when I go to Run > Run Main Project, it builds and then a command prompt window pops up with the directory to "sh.exe" in its title.
I took a screenshot of the error message:
Does anyone know why this is happening and why I can't get the program to run properly even in debug?
Notice that in the screenshot I switched over to the MinGW tools because I thought maybe Cygwin was the problem, but the same error still occurs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

"No such file or directory" in the error message is the key. When you run the project, it wants to access a file which is not there. Make sure that the paths are set up correctly.

Building c++ program using eclipse neon gives me "cc1plus.exe" has stopped working error

I am just trying to run a basic hello world c++ program that was recommended by eclipse (file->new->c++ project-> "Hello World C++ Project" and am reaching errors at every level. At first the build would give me a "make file" and "g++" not found but then I installed minGW/gcc/minSYS using the "mingw-get" installer provided at this address http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started on my computer, fixing that issue. But now when I try and build this or any other c++ program I get a pop-up saying "cc1plus.exe has stopped working" whether I build the entire workspace or just the program. Can anyone explain what might be going wrong? I've reinstalled both eclipse and minGW by deleting their folders and starting again but nothing seems to be working!

procedure entry point not found when running from cmd/explorer but running fine in eclipse cpp

I just wrote a simple program that edits a file in C++.
After freshly installing Eclipse and MinGW following the guides on the net, everything seemed to be working fine. The program compiles and runs perfectly within the eclipse command window hook.
Screenshot of the program running fine in Eclipse
When I try to start the program out of my cmd window or just out of the explorer, I get an error message about the procedure entry point not being found.
Screenshot of the error message (in German)
This says something like:
"The Procedure Entry Point (...) was not found in the dll (...) PdftexFixer.exe."
I tried different compile options, all work fine within eclipse but the problem persists.
The program does not utilize any custom dlls. I tried cleaning the project foulder and compiling again from scratch. MinGW paths are set in the systems environment variables.
Any ideas whats wrong?

My C++ program gets" ... .exe has stopped working" windows 7 error

I have written a C++ program in Visual Studio 2010. It builds and runs fine in the IDE (even when running without debugger, in Release mode). However, whenever I run the executable from the command prompt, I get an "... .exe has stopped working" error message.
How can I figure out what's causing it to crash? Do I have to include something else in the command line if I use additional libraries/headers? Are there errors that make it through the Visual Studio IDE, but cause problems when running the program on the outside?
I'm not including my code, because there's way to much of it...
Help is greatly appreciated.
If your program had been rendered in Debug mode, try rendering it in Release mode and then retry.
The problem was incomplete directories for the files I was loading. I neglected to check for a successful open or use try/catch. It was running fine in the IDE because the file directory was in a subdirectory of the working directory. When I tried to run it from the command prompt, the relative directory was no longer valid. I changed the filenames to their complete directories, and everything worked fine.

Eclipse debug: "Error in final sequence - Failed to execute MI command"

I'm running Eclipse on win7. I want to make console applications that can run on either windows or linux. I followed the guide here on how to setup the compiler
I'm trying to compile and run a simple hello world program. It compiles fine, but when I try to debug I get the following error:
'launching test' has encountered a problem.
Error in final launch sequence.
Clicking details reveals the following information.
Error in final launch sequence
Failed to execute MI command:
-exec-run
Error message from debugger back end:
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
My gdb debugger path is C:\codesourcery\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe
I'm not exactly sure how to proceed.
If you're creating a windows console then I would think you would need gdb found in c:\minGW or wherever you have your Windows 7 gcc toolchain.
To change your debugger on Eclipse Kepler go to:
Run->Debug Configurations. Select Debugger tab and in the "GDB debugger:" field, enter the path of your Windows gdb.exe file (c:\MinGW\bin\gdb.exe if you're using minGW)
I realize this is an old question, but hoping it will help someone. In my case, there was a breakpoint set with only a memory address (no file name associated with it). Not sure how I got into this situation... Once I removed the breakpoint, I was able to launch my program with debugger. Note, I am using Eclipse Luna CDT (SR2)

Eclipse c++ never run when build has errors

When programming in eclipse (c++), I would like to just hit f5 (run) and have the project I'm working on save, build and (if there are no errors) run. If there are errors I want it to show the problems window and stop.
This all works at the moment except for the part where it shouldn't run when there are errors.
Is there a way to make eclipse never run the project when there are errors? Perhaps with an addon?
EDIT: Forgot to mention the prompt... The prompt does show but I want it to not show at all. If you look at the preference window you'll see that there's no 'never' option, there is one for all the other options but not for the 'launch if project contains errors'.
By default, Eclipse CDT does not run code with build errors, but maybe you have checked the option Always launch without asking checkbox.
You should go to Windows menu->Preferences->Run/Debug->Launching->Continue launch if project contains errors and check Prompt option instead of Always. Using this, Eclipse CDT will prompt you if errors exists during building or launch your binary if it has been compiled without errors.
