Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! using nRF Connect for VS code with nRF5340 DK

[gap_guillen]

Please, I am trying to learn how to use VS Code with nRF Connect and this is throwing errors. I have followed the instructions in these videos:

nRF Connect for VS Code, part 1: Installation

nRF Connect for VS Code, part 2: Creating an application

nRF Connect for VS Code, part 3: Building an application

nRF Connect for VS Code, part 4: Flashing an application

However, when I get to part 3 this throws configuration errors:

Executing task: nRF Connect: Generate config nrf5340_audio_dk_nrf5340_cpuapp for c:\nordic\myApps\blinky_demo

Maybe the solution is simple but I don't know. Before nRF Connect SDK without Visual Studio I didn't have these problems.

Hello Guillermo,

That is odd.

Before nRF Connect SDK without Visual Studio I didn't have these problems.

So I assume you have gotten the toolchain up and running using SES before, and that worked well for you?

Do you have nrf Command line tools installed? Did you make sure that your toolchain version matches your NCS version when creating the project? Did you select a freestanding application?

Regards,

Elfving

Hi Elfving, Thanks for your support.

For me Nordic Edition of the SEGGER Embedded Studio (SES) IDE is better than Visual Studio version, which is so confused.

I have repaired Command-Line Tools 

Toolchain matches with nRF Connect SDK v2.4.1 

freestanding app

and Build config

And If I use default setup v2.0.0

I got this error

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I hope some good advice.

Hello again,

It seems that you might be building it for the nrf5340_audio_dk_nrf5340. So the audio DK, not the normal 5340DK. Did you mean to build it for the Audio one?

Regards,

Elfving

Hi Elfving,

Whichever board variant I choose the error is the same. Here I removed the audio

and the error doesn't disappear

It seems to me that this only works on the inventor's machine with his/her own version of Visual Studio, and C/C++ packages and Windows or Linux OS. Maybe reinstall all the packages, but I don't think it will work.

Regards

Guillermo

I am not so sure about that, I haven't seen this issue before myself.

As you usually use Segger, and this is an NCS version that doesn't work for Segger, I assume you recently downloaded this version of NCS and do not necessarily know if the download worked successfully.

Are you downloading the NCS SDK using a VPN? That has typically lead to a few issues with things missing from the SDK. Could you try repairing NCS using "Update toolchain" or "Update SDK" in the drop down menu, on the NCS version in question, in the toolchain manager?

If that doesn't work, are you getting the same issue when building the hello world sample for the nRF52832 DK? If it doesn't work, could you send me the entire log?

Regards,

Elfving
