[build problems on Ubuntu] For some reason Geany cannot build code from a project, it gets permission denied, and I noticed that it tries to access a root folder.
The exact error message in Geany and the console output(start Geany with -d in a terminal) would be very helpful. And please post the path settings of the project(base path and run cmd or better the project file).
Part 2
I successfully installed Geany at work on Windows 2000.
The reason is that I want to work on the same code at home on Linux and at work on Windows.
The program starts, and I can work on the code. However there is one problem… I cannot compile.
When I click compile I get the following error:
13:50:06: File C:\USERS\personal\test1\test1.cpp opened(1).
13:50:07: Process failed (Failed to execute child process (No such file or directory))
Same as above, run Geany with the "-d" command line option. On Windows, this will open a console window with some debug messages which might provide better error reporting. Did you set up the path to your compiler correctly? This can be a bit tricky on Windows when the compiler binary is not in the %PATH% variable. Also take care of quoting of the path. On my Windows test system I have something like c:\mingw\bin\gcc -Wall -c "%f" in the preferences (Build->Set Includes And Arguments->Compile). If you have some spaces in the path to the compiler binary you should quote the whole path but the better way is to avoid this if possible ;-)
