C++ error information (Cannot find or open the PDB file)

Question

I'm using visual C++. But even for a simple program like "hello world", I would get message like "Cannot find or open the PDB file" when I tried to debug it. I'm a beginner. I searched the web, there are some similar post. I tried a couple, however, none of them help me to solve the problem. Is anyone can tell me how to fix this? Thanks!

Answer 1

I have a product on my site with that name.

 

Are you using the IDE and a project for the program? If you use the project then the settings will be setup for you properly.

Answer 2

I know, it is stupid to ask but just to check - Did you build it debug mode?

Answer 3

There is a green speed button (or using F5), I just pressed and debug. I'm really a beginner.

Thank you for reply. I didn't have a chance to check the hotmail email box... anyway, I'm using Microsoft visual c++ 2010 express, which I downloaded from microsoft. I'm running it on my win7 machine (32 bits). I did created from wizard. And, those error kept showing up in the output when I press F5 (debugging). But the program runs well if I simply press Ctrl+F5. It not the project program b/c I just type a very simple code print " Hello world  ".

Thanks again.
