[yocto] Eclipse "Error creating session, Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>"

[Edward Ekelund]

Hi,

I encounter the error
"
Error creating session
Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
"

in a pop up-window when attempting cross degugging following the lab 
found here: 
https://www.yoctoproject.org/tools-resources/presentations/using-eclipse-yocto-project

Does anyone know what the problem might be?
