Yes, I have a VPN, but it still have an error code exited below:

[west]: ERROR: update failed for projects: suit-generator, suit-processor, cmock, memfault-firmware-sdk, coremark, canopennode, cmsis-dsp, fatfs, hal_nordic, hostap, libmetal

[west]: exited with code 1.

and i finished all repository by "west update"

also, I delete /opt/nordic by command "sudo rm -r /opt/nordic" , then redo the installing process, the owner of folders show below:

and the problem is still there.

RE: vscode extension can not found the sdk in macOS

Kenneth — Tue, 14 Jan 2025 15:06:57 GMT

Hello,

We think the problem might be related to (chinese?) firewall, do you have the possibility to try with a VPN? There might be network calls to GitHub in those commands that are timing out.

If that is not the problem, then we can see that /opt/nordic/ncs is owned by root, but not your user. Can you delete /opt/nordic and start from clean slate?

Kenneth

Hello,

I can check with the vs code extension team, but first can you generate the support information by clicking on the headset icon?
