Thanks weizhen,

Since 1 month, I am facing the same problem.

Even I tried with other tool chain, but giving some errors.

Now problem solved working fine.

The problems solved by using older version arm-none-eabi-gcc (6.3.1).

weizhen Could you try to apply the patch in the comment to see if it works?

Hello, can you apply the following patch and check if this works for you?

the addr2line shows that happened in /mesh/core/src/mesh_config.c:228, and it is in side a function called entry_validation.

Commenting here for clarity - this question was answered by weizhen above, who is using v15.0.0.

Bjørn Kvaale — Mon, 01 Oct 2018 13:30:30 GMT

Do you still receive the same assert as you did previously? You can use the addr2line tool to figure out where the assert occured in the code. You can use the .elf file that is located in the build folder.

I am using cmake, and I already try to download these sdks and rerun everything again and again, and nothing helps. but the mesh sdk v2.1.1 works fine there.

Are you building the examples with cmake or segger embedded studio? I would recommend SES. If you still cannot get it to build, I would recommend downloading nrf5 sdk v15.0.0 & mesh sdk v2.2.0 again. You should keep the path quite short, so I would download it very close to the C drive. This should work out of the box. Also, make sure to use the correct MESH_SDK & SDK_ROOT paths like explained in the readme when you open a mesh segger project.

Also, I am using SDK v15.0.0 and softdevice S132 v6.0.0.

There is nothing wrong with the mesh sdk v2.2.0. I have successfully built it & run the examples without any issues. The mesh sdk however does not work well if you use nrf5 sdk v15.2.0. You will need to use nrf5 sdk v15.0.0, as stated in the documentation.

RE: Could not make example runing on V2.2.0

Bjørn Kvaale — Wed, 26 Sep 2018 08:01:26 GMT

Which nrf5 sdk version are you currently using? If you are not using sdk v15.0.0, I would highly recommend using that, as it is the recommended version to use. Could you please update your link that you followed? I do not believe the link you sent was relevant to this discussion unfortunately.

This seems to be a problem with the 2.2 stack and not procedure. Here is another person who had successfully built 2.1 examples now having issues: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../nrf-mesh-v2-2-0-light-switch-provisioner-hex-file-generating-with-more-size-build-with-cmake-than-the-existing-hex-files-in-bin-folder

RE: Could not make example runing on V2.2.0

weizhen — Tue, 25 Sep 2018 15:18:13 GMT

yes, I am doing nrfjprog --eraseall everytime before I flash the chip. I am using cmake to build the code. I followed this link, https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v12.0.0%2Fstructble__bps__init__t.html.

I check the .map file, and all assert is happening between mesh_config_init and mesh_config_load.

RE: Could not make example runing on V2.2.0

Bjørn Kvaale — Tue, 25 Sep 2018 06:57:02 GMT

The log clearly shows that you are getting an assert on each of the boards. Could you open up the .map file in your _build folder & see where the assert is happening: 0x2F60E, 0x2F55E, 0x31E72. Are you sure that you ran an nrfjprog --eraseall on all of the boards before you tried running the examples?

Also, have you set the MESH_ROOT & SDK_ROOT folders to the proper path? Go to Tools -> Options -> Building Tab -> Global Macros -> set the correct path.

Should be similar to this:

SDK_ROOT=C:/NordicSemi/SDKs/nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a

MESH_ROOT=C:/NordicSemi/SDKs/nrf5_SDK_for_Mesh_v2.2.0_src

If you needed to change any of these paths, remember to compile the examples again before testing.

weizhen — Mon, 24 Sep 2018 16:02:11 GMT

so the log shows it even not start the application yet. if the application starts it should at least print out <start>

Bjørn Kvaale — Mon, 24 Sep 2018 06:32:32 GMT

Could you please check the log & upload the logs for all three devices (provisioner, client, server)?

RE: Could not make example runing on V2.2.0

weizhen — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 15:41:09 GMT

yes, I do erase all of the devices. I do not check the log yet, but if it is as same as earlier version, it should blinking all LEDs twice and keep all of them off. but right now, it only turns on all LEDs, and then do nothing, seems like it died at the start state.

RE: Could not make example runing on V2.2.0

Bjørn Kvaale — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 06:09:16 GMT

It should be the same procedure as earlier light switch examples. Have you remembered to erase all of the devices before you programmed them. Have you tried running a debug session in SES to see what is happening in the log?
