UBUNTU Xterm console: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted

#1

My Ubuntu 16.04 is showing this message on XTerm every time I start debbuging with codeblocks:
warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted

I am completely new to Ubuntu.
How do I fix?
Can I direct Codeblocks to Terminal instead of Xterm?
Pls help!

Hi there,

I didn’t install codeblocks on Ubuntu so I have no idea how to fix this. But according to the error message, I can guess that it’s something related to permission issues. Set executable chmod for the file you’re executing. Or try to run with sudo user.

I did a quick search on Google with your error message and I can see some solutions:

If you don’t know how to google, you can follow this tutorial by LMGTFY: http://bfy.tw/7cVo

Thank you.
Many answers with google search but one “works” for me. Or I do not have enough basis of Ubuntu to follow indicative instructions.
Change the kind of terminal from codeblocks ->Setting-> Environment Setting.
This way produces another problem that it creates a new terminal once I click Step Into button in codeblocks.

This time, with ubuntu I just want to use, not to learn much.
Anyone have completely fixed this? please share!

May be off-topic but … xterm is no longer maintained, why not use other terminals
