Eclipse Working directory does not exist all though it does

[LordMcSniff]

I am currently starting with Minecraft modding (1.15.2) and tried it a year ago with 1.7.10, but couldn't get the Gradle setup to work.

My problem now is that Eclipse wort start Minecraft and throws the error "Working directory does not exist: C:/Users/Johann Schöps/Desktop/Minecraft/Own Mod/Mod/run".

I have tried as described in this thread and many othersto make a run folder but the run folder already existed.

https://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/topic/45242-working-directory-does-not-exist-error/

 

When I tried to delete it and make a new one it still didn't work and it always throws the same error.

What can I do?

Please give details on how you set up your workspace

I followed this tutorial but instead of InteliJ I used Eclipse

and I also did the cmd from thiss tutorial because I was told to use genEclipseRuns

I don't watch video tutorials, sorry. I was looking for step by step explanation of what you did, not a video. How do we know you followed all the steps in the video? Are your path names and *everything* the same?

Anyhow, you should be using both eclipse and genEclipseRuns tasks to get setup, either from the commandline, or running the tasks within eclipse.

 

And I'm not sure how to fix your funky character in your path. Maybe just make a folder C:\Modding so you can just avoid it altogether? A good rule of thumb, any type of identifier/name, don't use spaces or special characters.

Moving the folder to my HDD "D:\sonstiges\Programming\Eclipse\Mod\run"  worked.

Thanks
