Failed to clone the repositories when trying to install SDK 2.7.0

Hello all,

I'm getting stuck on re-installing any SDK and I'm getting the below error. 

The error:

Failed to clone the repositories: Error: HEAD is now at 100befc70c7 [nrf fromtree] sysbuild: introduce sysbuild_root for root adjustment FATAL ERROR: command exited with status 128: show refs/heads/manifest-rev:west.yml Error: Launched process exited with non-zero status: 128 Error: Subprocess /Users/michael/Library/Application Support/nrfconnect/nrfutil-sandboxes/arm64/toolchain-manager/0.15.0/bin/nrfutil-toolchain-manager failed with unexpected exit code Some(128)

I'm running:

  • MacOS
  • I have tried deleting the whole ncs folder and installing again but doesn't work
  • Tried in both VCS as in the Toolchain manager (version 1.5.3)

Any ideas are welcome! 

Parents
  • Do you get the same error in both cases when you use Toolchain manager and if you try to run the west commands?

  • I have a similar problem and when I try to install manually I get blocked during Python modules installation.

    I have tried to install using pipx; the problem is that pipx does not accept requirements.txt files.

    I have activated the virtual environment used by pipx and I could use pip there and continue.

    After the installation I still get errors.

    One question: which Python environment is used by nrfConnect and VSC+nrfConnect addon: the system Python  or the pipx local Python?

    Ubuntu 24.4 LTS and the more recent non LTS versions hog the system Python installation and prevent installing anything not blessed by Ubuntu outside a virtual environment.
