Error: no such option: --mesh

[shohidur]

Hello,

I am trying to run mesh DFU examples in following environment:

Distributor ID:    Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Release:    18.04
Codename:    bionic

I have installed nrfutl of following version :

nrfutil version
nrfutil version 0.3.0

if execute nrfutil command is get followings:

Usage: nrfutil [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Options:
  --verbose  Show verbose information
  --help     Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  dfu      This set of commands support Nordic DFU OTA package generation...
  keys     Generate keys for signing or generate public keys
  version  Displays nrf utility version.

So far seems everything okay to me. But when i try to create dfu package with following command i get an error message:

nrfutil dfu genpkg --application /home/iot/NORDIC/nRF5_SDK_15.0.0_a53641a/examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_blinky/pca10040/s132/ses/Output/Release/Exe/ble_app_blinky_pca10040_s132.hex company-id 1 --application-version 2 --key-file private_key.text --sd-req 0x009D --mesh dfu_test.zip

Usage: nrfutil dfu genpkg [OPTIONS] ZIPFILE
Try "nrfutil dfu genpkg --help" for help.

Error: no such option: --mesh

My question why i am having this error message ? In windows 10 there was not same error. Am i using wrong version of nrfutil ?

please suggest

Hi,

Yes, it looks like you are using the wrong version of nrfutil. For Mesh DFU you need to use the mesh_dfu branch of nrfutil, as described in the DFU quick start guide.
