warning: GDB: Failed to set controlling terminal: Operation not permitted

Question

I get this error (title of this question), when I am attempting to debug C/C++ programs using gdb with Netbeans IDE.

Does anyone know what this means, and how to get rid of the warning?

I am able to debug despite the warning, but I'd still like to make the warning go away.

Relevant details:

1. OS: Ubuntu 9.10
2. gdb: 7.0-ubuntu
3. Netbeans: 6.8.1

Solution

Project > Properties > Run > Console Type > Output Windows

What if I do not have the option "Output Windows"? I can only choose between "internal terminal", "external terminal" and "standard output" and none of them works... Netbeans 7.0.1 on OpenSUSE Linux

I don't have a Run option, and also can't find anything on Console Type. (CB v 16.01 on Debian 9.) ???
