Cannot use eclipse to debug [message #1416218]

I use the eclipse(luna) to do a project,and I used the codesorcery tool chain.

I have successfully passed the build,in which I used the cs-make and arm-none-eabi-gcc compiler.I got the .elf binary file.

However,when I want to debug(I made the debug configurations:I set the environment variable,and set the gdb as arm-none-eabi-gdb)I failed with the following message:

Error in final launch sequence
Failed to execute MI command:
-exec-run
Error message from debugger back end:
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".
Don't know how to run. Try "help target".

In this way I cannot run the debug.

Can someone help me?Thanks a lot!

I'm guessing that you are trying to debug a remote target. To do that you should use a 'remote' type of launch for debugging. CDT has two of them, and choosing the right one depends on how your gdbserver is started. Some details here:
