CSCOPE ERROR: E429: File "path/to/file.c" does not exist

[newvimuser]

Hi,

1. I created a cscope.out file in my project root directory.
2. Next, set the CSCOPE_DB variable to that cscope.out file and
exported the variable.
3. Then, I go into a subdirectory and launch vim on a file in that
directory.
4. I execute "cs find 0 symbol" in that file and I get a list of
instances where this symbol is found.
5. When I select an instance and hit Enter, I get the following
error:
"E429: File "path/to/file.c" does not exist"

Can someone please help me out here.

Thanks.

Hello,

Could you send exact command you build cscope.files with?
I think problem in related pathes...

Possible solutions:
1. cwd current VIM directory to project directory, i.e. execute from
the vim's command line ":cd /home/you/projects/project" and try again;

2. use full path when building cscope.files, for example: find /home/
you/projects/project -name '*.cpp' > ./cscope.files

Thanks.

Hi,
I was not using absolute path when creating cscope.files. That was the
issue.
Thanks for your support.

Do not set autochdir in your vimrc file.

Considering, that the original message is 4.5 years old, is this still a
problem, that occurs, when :set autochdir is set?

Best,
