Keep your project close to root directory. Project with a long path also generates this same error message.

I discovered the cause of my problem. The name of the project was too long. Thanks to Øyvind Karlsen, I now know that this is a known issue with windows when names get too long.

Thanks. I thought I found the answer just now. I still encounter the same issue after checking that I have added the paths. Hopefully, I can find the answer later and post it here. Really puzzling.

Hi,

Did you add the path for ble_stack_handler_types.h?

Add the path to the header file to the project.

Go to Projects -> Options for Target, or click the shortcut shown below

Select the C/C++ tab and click ...
In the window Folder Setup; add the path to "ble_stack_handler_types.h", for me this is ..\..\..\..\..\..\components\softdevice\common\softdevice_handler

Normally this file is included, possibly you are seeing an error because you have not added the path to peer manager, which is something like ..\..\..\..\..\..\components\ble\peer_manager.

Best regards,

Øyvind
