[SOLVED] QT Creator doesn't start the debugger

amigo421

project type: cmake
compiler: msvc 2013

after successful build (with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug in parameters of cmake window)
Im trying to start debug
and got the message:
Internal error: Cannot start process C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Debuggers\x86\cdb.exe: Could not start process: Invalid directory name

debugger does exist in specified folder.

How to solve this issue?

please close the topic,
the settings of working dirrectory was incorrect, and debugger could not find the executable

Edit your title and add [SOLVED] at the beginning. Too bad adding the solved tag doesn't do this automatically.

I would raise it as a bug - the message should be more precise, e.g. "working directory is invalid." The current message is very confusing so I had to google the issue to figure out that working dir is wrong.
