kconfig.cmake:191 (message): command failed with return code: 1

I followed the steps in Getting Started Assistant to load the asset_tracker application using SES(4.16) and it fails with the following error.

CMake Error at /Users/myfile/ncs/zephyr/cmake/kconfig.cmake:191 (message): command failed with return code: 1

I tried upgrading pip3 and making sure PyYAML is installed / upgraded. Also the info on Getting Started Assistant and https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/gs_programming.html#gs-programming-ts does not match SES 4.16 (mac OSX 10.14.4)

The master branch is not working properly at the moment, and we are working on fixing it. However, you should be able to build your examples with SES v4.16 if you roll back to some earlier commits. Try following these steps:

• Go to <sourcecode_root>\ncs\nrf and open the command prompt
• Type in: git checkout c1939d963fe2c18013ffb8de0bd8f6fc1d91724d (The latest commit I found that worked)
• Type in: west update
• Open Use Segger Embedded Studio V4.16 and build your example

Best regards,

Hi,

It's still not working. You can see the SHA from the commit in my terminal.

During the easter, a large part of the support team are on vacation, and you may not get an answer at first. The 23 of april, most of the staff will be back, and you can expect an answer that week.

Best regards,

Simon

I am not sure why it ins't working for you. I followed the steps explained below, built and flashed the Secure Partition Manager, then I built and flashed the asset tracker (with board name set to nrf9160_pca1009ns) and it worked fine. The only difference I can see between us is that you are using MAC. Are you able to test it on Windows? If it works then, the operating system might be the cause of the issue. If you aren't able to do this, please tell me and I will look further into it.

Best regards,

Simon
