In the Launch configuraiton dialog (Run > Debug Configurations ...)
there's a launch configuration for the binary you're trying to launch.
Ensure the Project named under the "Main" tab exists in the workspace.
(You can be sure by pressing Browse and selecting the project explicitly.)

Cheers,

James

I am new to eclipse.

I am experiencing the same problem. Can someone post specific steps to solve this problem. I went to Run > Debug Configurations, but what do I do after that.

Do I have to change a setting every time I try to compile a C++ program in a new project?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Please refer to the manual
http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/tasks/cdt_o_run.htm

You have to setup a launch config for every application (but only once!). You might have several projects in your workspace that produce several binaries. Eclipse cannot know which one you want to lauch right now.

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ
- google
