DFU File Not word aligned Error.

[Raghu GS]

Hi Everyone, I face a problem regarding uploading Application Hex file, I use nRF Toolbox v 1.15.0 mobile app to upload the firmware, Bootloader is successfully uploaded to my development board through PC, but when I select the Application hex file, the app displays the error message saying that the "DFU File is not word aligned" , What would be the cause for this problem and how to solve, I don't use a init packet.

Bootloader is of SDK's 6.1.0,

application is of same SDK.

I use Eclipse Kepler IDE to compile and build application.

Could you share the hexfiles you are using( Bootloader and Application)?

Update 19.04.16:

Application Size exceeds limit, resulting in the "DFU file is not WORD aligned" error.

Hi Bjorn Spockeli,

Your request to send the application and Bootloader hex file helped to know my problem, I was preparing a Dummy application file to send, and to cross check that same problem occurs, I sent dummy Application Hex file using DFU feature, It worked well n good, then came to know that this Error occurs due to application image size, my application crossed the threshold size, so that error message displayed. Thanks for replying Bjorn Spockeli.
