The gdb response looks OK.
There must be something wrong on eclipse debug settings...
On step 6 from eclipse debug instructions, click "Browse" and select the xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.exe on your PC

That may be caused by some wrong environment variables or environment paths setup on Eclipse.

I was using Eclipse for build/debug software on ESP32 some time ago and i found it very hard and time consuming to set up a esp32 project on Eclipse.
Moving the project to a different PC is a headache too with eclipse because will have to go trough the setup process all over again on the new PC.
This were the main reasons why i droped eclipse and i moved to VsCode for build/debug ESP32 projects.
That's why i made the Esp32 VsCode project template and instructions i mentioned before on this thread.

I advice you to do the same. Move from Eclipse to VsCode or some other IDE and start coding instead spending time on setting up the IDE environment.
Eclipse is a good IDE for sw development but it just don't suit well for ESP32.

Hi Calin,

thanks for the suggestion..!!but eclipse is the requiement for me so have to go ahead wih this itself.

ok one last time i will trouble you sorry for that.

when i am pressing debug after setting all the variables and link on the command line i get some process status
in that it shows one error see the screenshot attached it is marked in red box, here it says program_esp32 faild couldnot find the path but that path is some jumbled without slash(/) and at the end its "hello_worluild" in this" hello_world" and "build" is mixed from where it taked this path or what might be the issue in this ? whereas the actual path
which contains bin file is : C:\msys32\home\ATUL\esp\esp-idf\examples\get-started\hello_world\build

and in step 8 of jtag debug says to add the path of bin file so i have added it as:mon program_esp32 ${workspace_loc:/hello_world/build/hello-world.bin}

my build directory location is :${workspace_loc:/hello_world}/
for rest environment variables i have attached its screenshot.

something is going wrong somwhere and i am unable to figure it out ..

Can you get in this whats going wrong ..!!

Change the "/" to "\" on IDF_PATH variable on your settings.
I just made a new setup on eclipse to check...
I used https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf-tools-setup-1.2.exe to install the openocd.
The setup work OK...ish...
Here is my setup:

Hi Calin,

thanks for the kind support,actually esp-idf-tool-installer doesent work on my system may be because it supports 64 bit processor mine is 32bit i will still try do replicate what yoy did.
