Hello everyone,
I've followed the following guide for mesh dfu and had no issues with the example provided here : https://www.nordicsemi.com/DocLib/Content/SDK_Doc/Mesh_SDK/v3-0-0/md_doc_getting_started_dfu_quick_start
Now I would like to do the same but with a different binary, I would like to DFU the light switch client example instead of blinky. When I try to execute the DFU process I have an error : Failed to upgrade target. Error is: Crashed on start packet.
Here's the process I go through to do this using 2 nrf52840-dk boards:
I followed step 1 and 2.
I generated the new dfu_test.zip :
C:\Python27\Scripts>nrfutil dfu genpkg --application "C:\development\nRF5_SDK_Mesh_3.10\examples\light_switch\client\build\light_switch_client_nrf52840_xxAA_s140_6.1.0_Release\light_switch_client_nrf52840_xxAA_s140_6.1.0.hex" --company-id 0x00000059 --application-id 1 --application-version 2 --key-file private_key.txt --sd-req 0x00AF --mesh dfu_test2.zip Key file was given, setting DFU version to 0.8 Zip created at dfu_test2.zip
Then do the following steps(I am using the device page previously generated for the example with blinky):

Error is: Device returned an unknown status code (142) on a DFU state beacon packet. Possible causes: - bootloader, SoftDevice or application on target does not match the requirements in the DFU package. - baud rate or flow control is not the same as in the target bootloader. - target is not in DFU mode. If using the SDK examples, press Button 4 and RESET and release both to enter DFU mode. Closing serial port...
Anything I am doing wrong?
Thank you in advance
Edit:
Today when I tried the same steps I have the following error when trying to DFU the dfu_test.zip package:
