View Full Version : "Executable Failed" message while debugging remote ARM

Hi all.

I am attempting to debug an application on a remote ARM development board using QT Creator 2.4.1. Everything seems to be working except that at every debug breakpoint I receive a message box with "Executable failed", sometimes accompanied by garbage (see attached screenshot).

This works using gdb from the command line. There is debugging information in the executable (see make output below).

Additionally, after I press OK to make the message box go away, I can see my symbols, and the program actually is executing.

I've built against qt 4.6.0 as well as 4.8.2 with the same results.

I figured I'd ask if anyone knows what this somewhat non-specific message means before I start rummaging around through QT creator source code.

Thanks in advance.
