What is the meaning of: Debugging information ... cannot be found?

[Rasoul_K_]

During running a FORTRAN code, following error message occurs.

Debugging information for ERAUL201305.exe cannot be found or does not match. Binary was not built with debug information.
Do you want to continue debugging?
Yes No

If I choose Yes then following error message appears
Unhandled exception at 0x0044511f in ERAUL201305.exe: 0xC0000005:
Access violation writing location 0x00000000.

How can I solve this issue.

I am a novice so please reply in basic and easy to understand way.

PS) I am not sure if I have defined the project/solution and code source correctly.

Thanks in advance

Forgot to mention that following windows comes to front and a yellow arrow stops at following line:

Disassembly

0044511F   movaps   xmmword ptr [esi+edx*8],xmm2

You need to select and build the debug configuration rather than release configuration in visual studio to add the debug information.

When debugging change a project configuration to Debug.

Your screenshot debug-errorscreen.jpg shows that your configuration is Release.

Dear Sergey

Thanks for your help.

i will change and debug again and let you know what happened

Dear Sergey

I changed what you mentioned and debugged the code.

It gives following error:

error PRJ0019: A tool retunred an error code.

But it doesn't give any futher info on the error.

How can I find the error?

[andrew_4619]

look in the ouput window or open the  BuildLog.htm that should be in the debug (or release) folder of your project,

By looking at message provided by Rasoul it seems that null pointer was dereferenced by code at location 0x0044511f.What is the content of these registers esi+edx*8 ?

>>...i will change and debug again and let you know what happened... Please follow up as soon as you change project configuration to Debug and it has to be much easier to understand what is wrong with your codes. Thanks in advance.

Dear Sergey

Thanks for your help. My problem was resolved by changing the status to debug.
