Flash nrf52840 DK using VS code

[Shantanu]

Hello,

I am using the nrf52840-dk development board. I want to make a setup to run different applications. I am trying with the blinky code to get started. I have followed the steps provided in the nrf Connect SDK Fundamentals. I am using the following tools:

OS : Ubuntu 16.04

Using nrfutil-device version: 2.0.3

Using nrf-device-lib version: 0.17.3

Using nrfjprog DLL version: 10.23.1

Using JLink version: JLink_V7.88j

These details are shown in the nrfConnect application. In the visual code studio, I am not able to detect the device properly. I can build the code successfully, But while I am trying to flash it into the board I am getting the following Error logs.

Please help me to flash the code in the nrf52840-dk.

Thanks and regards,

Shantanu

Hello Shantanu,

The crash log suggests that there is a communication issue between the PC and the on-board J-link debugger. I would recommend you try the following to help narrow down the problem:

- If possible, try to program the board from another PC

- Try with a different USB cable

- If using a USB hub, try to connect the USB directly to one of the PC's port instead.

Best regards,

Vidar

Hello,

Now I can connect the board to the PC. But still, I am getting the error related to Cmake.  The error message is added in the screenshot below.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello, 

The pop-up in the bottom right corner suggests that the SDK is still installing. Have you tried waiting for the update to finish? If the problem persists, please post the build log from the 'TERMINAL' tab.
