Unable to flash using eclipse

Hi, 

I was using eclipse for the development of our board using the nRF52832 and when I launch the debug on eclipse, the program does not flash and this is the output that I get in the console

Everything was working fine some days ago and it just stopped working. 

I am pretty sure most of my settings are good. I tried re cloning the project, starting a fresh new work space and even reinstalling eclipse.

Note that I followed this guide for the setup of eclipse:
 https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/nordic-blog/b/blog/posts/development-with-gcc-and-eclipse

Any help is appreciated

  • Hi Xavier

    Does it work programming your application with nrfjprog or does it only fail when you use Eclpse? Could you try using -noir and not -ir in your command line? The debugger should not have to initialize the register on the nRF5 device.

    Best regards,

    Simon

  • Hi, thanks for the input

    I can flash using nrfjprog and it does work as intended. I tried using -noir instead of -ir but it still did not flash the new image and the debugger stopped at a random address

    Here's the output in eclipse
