Can't build any nrf9160 application example

[Petr21]

I just installed the toolchain (2.6.1) and SDK (main) from scratch, and I'm not able to build the Serial LTE Modem and Asset Tracker application. I receive an error during CMAKE phase for both of them:

I used this command:

west build -b nrf9160dk_nrf9160 applications/serial_lte_modem

This problem could be related to the recent change in the SDK, as I ran into it after I updated the SDK to the latest one.

It's also possible that I'm missing something or doing something wrong, I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Petr

Hi Petr

It should build out of the box. I do however see that you are running the main branch, is there any reason for this? It is not something I would recommend as it will not have the same level of testing as our tagged releases. Any changes done is the SDK will also have a lower level of documentation. 

I also see that you are not running our toolchain in the build log. Do you see the same result if you use our toolchain?

Hi, 

I included the logs from the build with different toolchain by mistake, but the result is the same when I use your toolchain, see the logs. I'm using main branch because of some changes / updates / fixes in Serial LTE application. Main branch should contain SDK 2.7.0 rc3 which should be pretty stable.

Thanks

You need to change build target to _ns and it should work
