Building infinite loop

[Joao Colombari]

Hi, 

I am currently finishing the intermediate SDK course of yours and suddenly I got a really strange behavior.

The build just endlessly enters a loop in Found GnuLd as the screenshot shows. I have already tried restarting my computer and SDK and also tried touching VScode with a different SDK version. None worked. 

Any idea? 

João.

SDK version: 2.6.0

Build target: nRF5340 Audio DK

OS: MacOS Sonoma 14.1.2

I have the same Problem (Sonoma 14.4.1, NCS 2.6, nrf52840dk_nrf52840)

It works with NCS 2.5

Hi,

What happens if you use NCS v2.5.0 with toolchain v2.6.0 (instead of v2.5.0), and NCS v2.6.0 with the older toolchain v2.5.0?

Best regards,
Dejan

When I restart vscode, the build directory is still there but no build config is shown in the APPLICATIONS tab, I can delete the dir and build with a new one. But only one time, pristine build again will lead to the error. This happens with 2.6 and 2.5 (I overlooked this because I closed it sorry).

Dejans,

I had the exact same behavior Chris had. I didn't try using NCS 2.5 with 2.6 toolchain, but did use NCS 2.6 with older toolchains (not only 2.5, but some others as well) and it made no difference. 

After trying changing everything and resinstaling the toolchains with no success, I resintalled every other possible thing - NCS, J-Link and the VSCode extensions and by doing this it finally works. No idea why, but it does"
