Error db directory path nrf9160 cellular monitor

[Muthumani]

Hi,

I am writing to seek assistance with an issue I've encountered while attempting to create a modem trace on my nRF9160DK board.

When flashing my asset tracking code, I encounter the following error message:

Error when creating trace: unable to locate db directory plugin path: C:\Users\samarpan\.nrfconnect-apps\node_modules\pc-nrfconnect-cellularmonitor\node_modules\@nordicsemiconductor\nrf-monitor-lib-js\Release\win32-x64\nrfml-insight-source.nrfml.

Despite my efforts, I have been unable to resolve this issue. To provide some context, I am using the nRF9160DK with modem version 1.3.6 and SDK version 2.6.0.

I have attempted to search for solutions online and came across a somewhat similar issue described in a this ticket but I'm using windows only. However, the resolution mentioned in that ticket involved accessing the 1.3.5 modem firmware repository, which appears to be unavailable now.

Could you please provide guidance on how to resolve this error? Any insights, suggestions, or alternative solutions you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and assistance.

I don't have any further ideas at this point. I did have quite a few of the previous SDKs installed on this system over the past few years so that might have made a difference?

I have the same issue:
Error when creating trace: unable to locate db directory plugin path: c:\xxxx\.nrfconnect-apps\node_modules\pc-nrfconnect-cellularmonitor\node_modules\@nordicsemiconductor\nrf-monitor-lib-js\Release\win32-x64\nrfml-insight-source.nrfml
I just updated the Cellular monitor to version v2.4.1. this morning, do I really need to start downgrading the environment. I think I had some other issues with the older Cellular monitor earlier. I am using the cloud multi service app with working LTE-M connection and most of other stuff is working but I would like to see the actual modem trace.
This path is actually pointing to my win home directory so it is no wonder the plugin is not there but neighter my ZEPHYR_BASE or project folder are there so I'm just wondering where this comes from.
