Debugging Issues with Clang 3.4 / Bundled GDB on Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS x64

In Clion, the debugger is not hitting any of my breakpoints.  I have (at least) two problems from what I can tell form the GDB Log:

Got object file from memory but can't read symbols: File truncated.
warning: Unable to find libthread_db matching inferior's thread library, thread debugging will not be available.



1) It looks like the bundled GDB cannot load the libpthread / libthread_db libraries from the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu.  I have created a .gdbinit file in ~, but the bundled gdb doesn't seem to load it.  When I choose to use the installed version of gdb instead, I don't get the warning about the thread library.

2) It looks like it cannot find the source code in the compiled file even though it was compiled with the -g option.  I've tried both Debug and RelWithDebInfo configurations.

Any suggestions?

Problem 2 was caused by a dumb error -- I had Release Mode hard coded into the CMake.

I still have an issue with Problem 1 when using the integrated GDB.  I managed to find a PPA for Ubuntu that let me upgrade 14.04.3 to use GDB 7.8 in the meantime.

Hi Matt.

Could you also please add the following line to (Help | Configure Debug Log Settings)
#com.jetbrains.cidr.execution.debugger

and send us idea.log file (Help | Show log in ) after the problem will happen again.

Could you also please try to use the system debugger? Will it work?

Hi Matt.

Could you please specify which email address did you use? We didn't get the log on clion-support @jetbrains.com yet.
