Hi, as it is a different issue it would be great if you can create another case and also include which platform you are on.

I had same issue, plus some others. This lesson instruction is very problematic. Even after finding the correct toolchain directory (thank you!) I do not have a "aarch64-zephyr-elf" sub-directory. The closest i see is "riscv64-zephyr-elf". I am using nRF53840DK.

I had similar issue, once i identified what "ncs_install_path/PathToToolChain" mean, i am able to execute gdb.
In my case it was the following line i had to execute
C:\ncs\toolchains\c57af46cb7\opt\zephyr-sdk\aarch64-zephyr-elf\bin\aarch64-zephyr-elf-gdb.exe build/zephyr/zephyr.elf

So PathToToolChain was "toolchains\c57af46cb7"

You should be able to find your toolchain path by clicking here.

I actually just found it. It's the toolchain part that I was confused on. I think that the folders should have the brackets as in step 8. So

ncs_install_path/PathToToolChain/opt/zephyr-sdk/aarch64-zephyr-elf/bin/aarch64-zephyr-elf-gdb build/zephyr/zephyr.elf

should be

<ncs_install_path>/<PathToToolChain>/opt/zephyr-sdk/aarch64-zephyr-elf/bin/aarch64-zephyr-elf-gdb build/zephyr/zephyr.elf

with a "make sure to edit the path before running" as stated in step 8.

and perhaps a tip could be added that the toolchain folder can be found by going to manage toolchins.

then open toolchain directory.

Hi Sam

Are you using Sysbuild? If so then it might be that you need to open build_folder/build_folder/zephyr/zephyr.elf

I will make a note for for the course to update the path for the change with sysbuild and change the name from "build" to build_folder also just in case someone do name the build something else than build

Edit:

I presumed it was the build you could not find, just to verify, was it the build or the the folder in the toolchain?
