Cannot generate PDF: "Common parent path "features" should be part of same ressource path..."

[biscuit314]

This error occurs when I try to generate a PDF:

"Common parent path "features" should be part of the same ressource path..."

Unfortunately that is all I can see in the error notification bubble (note "resource" is spelled "ressource" in the error message - that's not a typo on my part here).

To ensure the problem was not due to my project's complex folder structure structure I created a clean folder and copied my feature files there. Then I opened that folder as a new project with WebStorm. The same error occurred. No folder named .cucumber+ was created.

This is happening in both Windows and Linux.

What do I do to adjust which paths or configs to get this to work?

Hello Michael Gherkin file have to be part of resource path... is it the case ? Does the folder icon look like this :

What is a resource path? Do you mean the feature files (Gherkin files) have to be in a folder named "resources"? Mine are in a folder named "features" Cucumber+ has detected them all, but I get the following when I try to generate PDF:

In the above, my feature files were in a different location, but I've tried copying them into all manner of path structures, each with the same result. I tried moving the features file into the project, renaming it to resources to ressource, to resource Each time Cucumber+ finds all of my feature files, lets me filter by tags, etc. But whenever I click the PDF button I get some variation of the message above.

I found the problem. I had to mark the folder as Test Sources Root:
