problen with gdbserver

problen with gdbserver

[rajendra.sisodia]

I am facing problem in doing remote debugging using gdb. When I run gdbserver at the target, it is not waiting for the host to connect.

for example when I run

target> gdbserver host:port binaryFile

I am getting gdb prompt directly.

at host
when I run gdb and give the following command
host> remote target target:port

I am getting the message
" target:port success"



Is there any problem in gdbserver or I am using different binary for gdbserver. Please give me some pointer regarding this (how adn where to get gdbserver binary). I have read the gdb manual and doing exactly what is written there.

I am using gdb and gdbserver version 5.0.

Can any one help me by replying where exactly is the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Then you don't have any normal gdbserver installed.  Please download
the source (see http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/) and build a cross-gdb
from that.  You can build gdbserver following the instructions in
gdb/gdbserver/README.
