[lldb-dev] error: process launch failed: Lost debug server connection

[Ted Woodward via lldb-dev]

FYI - the color you picked for this makes it unreadable against a white background. I had to convert it to plain text to read it.

 

The error message “Lost debug server connection” occurs if the platform isn’t connected and it is not a host platform.

 

What do you get if you type “platform status” after “file Test”?

 

Is the remote-built executable available on your Mac? lldb will need it to be able to get symbols and debug info.

I have started lldb-server on remote linux in the directory where my executable need to be debugged reside.

>From my Mac I started lldb, 

(lldb) platform select remote-linux

  Platform: remote-linux

 Connected: no

(lldb) platform connect connect://pi.local:9091

  Platform: remote-linux

OS Version: 4.9.78 (4.9.78-v7+)

    Kernel: #1084 SMP Thu Jan 25 18:05:49 GMT 2018

  Hostname: pi

 Connected: yes

WorkingDir: /Users/necktwi/Workspace/RemoteDebugTest/build

(lldb) file Test

Current executable set to ’Test' (arm).

(lldb) run

error: process launch failed: Lost debug server connection

 

Why the process launch failing? The executable `Test` takes parameters `-s normal`. How to feed them in? Did the process failed because of not feeding its arguments?

But I am trying to debug the executable which was built on the remote.

 

Thank you.
