Can you open the C:/Program Files/SEGGER/SEGGER Embedded Studio for ARM 4.18/gcc/arm-none-eabi/bin/ld directory and check if there is a nrf_common.ld file there?

Hi,

I have created the micro_ecc_lib_nrf52.a

using minGW

Can you tell me. the step i followed is ok or not ?

1. Downloaded and Install GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain latest version : here

2. changed the GNU_INSTALL_ROOT and GNU_VERSION

like this

3. Download and and unzip the micro-ecc folder

4. Execute msys.bat file from C:\MinGW\msys\1.0

5. moved to my folder ,in my case

cd /f/1.nRF52/nRF5_SDK_current/external/micro-ecc/nrf52hf_armgcc/armgcc/

make

the file has created

Now I build the secure folder example my case

F:\1.nRF52\nRF5_SDK_current\examples\dfu\secure_bootloader\pca10040_ble\ses

It's right that Python 2.7 will deprecate next January. My guess is that Nordic is already working on updating their software(including nrfutil) before that time arrives 🙂

As for the next step I recommend that you continue following the guide I linked earlier, specifically the instructions in github repo.

Good luck!

Hi,

I used DFU example on Windows 10 with python 2.7 some time before and it worked well.

[quote userid="74103" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/50096/buttonless-dfu-with-ses/202271"]

Is that DFU secure bootloader need Ubuntu / Linux OS support?

[/quote]

I don't think it should be an issue and should work well with Windows 10.

If you don't use python for any other purpose, uninstall python 3 and keep only python 2.7 as it is mentioned in prerequisites to use python 2.7.

Prerequisites
To install nrfutil from source the following prerequisites must be satisfied:

1.  Python 2.7 (2.7.10 or newer, not Python 3)
2.  pip
3.  setuptools (upgrade to latest version): pip install -U setuptools

After installing python 2.7 and nrfutil, try running the example and if it doesn't work please add the logs generated so that we may know what the issue is.

Regards

My Query is have i Windows 10. I have download the nrfutil.exe from here.

While i run the exe file, within a few seconds the exe file closed.

During this i have not installed any version of Python.

After that I have installed Python 2.7.12

but running the CMD and enter python it when to store to install Python 3.7

I am not understanding.

You can either write export <path_to_executable> in your terminal or follow the instructions for editing environment variables(including PATH) found(for example) here.

Good luck!

Yes,

Can you tell me exactly how to set the PATH.

I am not well in python.

Can you elaborate? If you've downloaded the .exe from https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfutil/releases, then you need to add the path where you placed the .exe file to the windows path.
