Thread Viewer Empty during Debug

wj_takumi

Hello,

I am practicing the intermediate Nordic Academy online course, and I have a problem of the thread viewer.

I have enabled debug, I did everything strictly according to the training materials. 

However, I could not make the thread info to display.

6523.inter_less1_exer1.zip

The project is attached here with the build. I really tried everything I could, but none of them worked. I tried using different boards as well, and there was no difference.

Can anyone help me to see if there is anything I overlooked? 

Thank you very much in advance!

    A possible cause for the issue you see is if you have another debug session already running.
    Can you make sure that you are running only one debug session when opening the thread monitor?
    (Including RTT logging)

    Hi Sigurd,

    Thank you and sorry for my late reply.

    I re-installed everything SDK, toolchain , and still, it does not work. I am very sure I am running only one debug. And I have no RTT running, not even serial communication. 

    I am not sure if I understood "Generate support information", could you elaborate it in details, please?

    Looking forward to your reply.

    As a workaround:

    Try to use "Debug with Ozone". I think Ozone has functionality similar to the Thread Viewer

    Hi Sigurd,

    Today I tried installing everything on a different PC, which worked flawlessly.
    I compared and found that after pressing the debug button, the other PC started from the first line of the main function. However, this PC with issues displaying the thread info, started at __enable_irq(void), seen below.

    Could this give some hints on trouble shooting?
