Code blocks Debugger failing to start

I am using a 64bit Windows OS and Code blocks version 17.12. Whenever I try to debug my code, I get the following message and debug does not start.

Active debugger config: GDB/CDB debugger:Default  
Building to ensure sources are up-to-date  
Selecting target:  
Debug  
Adding source dir: C:\CX\will\  
Adding source dir: C:\CX\will\  
Adding file: C:\CX\will\bin\Debug\will.exe  
Changing directory to: C:/CX/will/.  
Set variable: PATH=.;C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW;C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN;C:\RailsInstaller\Git\cmd;C:\RailsInstaller\Ruby2.3.0\bin;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Client;C:\Windows\System32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files\Intel\WiFi\bin;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\WirelessCommon;C:\Program Files\PuTTY;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\nodejs;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\bin;C:\Users\Vinay A\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Users\Vinay A\AppData\Local\atom\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_151\bin;C:\Users\Vinay A\AppData\Roaming\npm
Starting debugger: C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW\bin\gdb.exe -nx -fullname -quiet  -args C:/CX/will/bin/Debug/will.exe  
failed

I have set the path in environment variables as C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW\bin

I have also set the produce debugging flag -g in CodeBlocks.

The code is part of a console application project. The executable path for the debugger is C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeBlocks\MinGW\bin\gdb.exe

What am I missing here? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Install older version of code blocks since there is issue with the debugger for Code blocks version 17.12.
