not in executable format

GDB调试加载执行程序后，提示 “not in executable format”

 

gdb const

出现下面的提示信息：

This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux"...const: not in executable format.

 

解决办法：

1.查看Makefile文件，CFLAGS选项是否加-g   # CFLAGS= -g -O2

2.file/tyoe命令查看执行文件类型

 

[root@lt-liyuncheng 2]# file const

const: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, dynamically linked 

 

(uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, not stripped   #保证是可执行文件

 

[root@lt-liyuncheng 2]# type ./const

./const is ./const      #保证执行文件路径正常

 

3.如果程序正在处于执行状态，那么调试的时候使用下面的命令：

$ps -ef|grep const

$gdb const PID
