Error during run: "invalid ASCII encoded byte:line 1"

[noob_with_ucontrollers]

Hi, 

I am receiving the same error this guy was: "https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/28724/sdk-for-mesh-v1-0-0-with-ses-invalid-ascii-encoded-byte-line-1" and am posting this question because the previous ticket was not closed (doesn't have a definite answer.) 

I checked my RAM and FLASH start addresses like the comments in ^ suggested... I am sure my configurations and paths are in place. I am using SDK 15.2 (when I build/run my project in SDK 15.3 it gives same error), and embedded studio. 
What does this error mean and how do I resolve it? 

Thank you

Hi

Yes, it most likely matters if your project is using the wrong SDK version, as there are changes between each and every update, which affects most of the projects. I urge you to find out which SDK version was used in that GitHub link, and either use the SDK specified there, or merge it to a newer SDK using our migration guides.

Best regards,

Simon

I'm not sure whether this error particularly was being caused by SDK compatibility, but when I re-built the entire code in a new SDK it worked. Thank you!

It probably was. Glad you got it working!

Best regards,

Simon
