Hi, the reason for that error is that you haven't set the variable sourcecode_root, see the picture below. This variable should be the location of your ncs-folder. 

 

Best regards,

Hi Heidi,

Appreciate your quick support.

We set this path of where ncs folder is there. but still the error exist while verifying. please find the attached snapshot.

Could you add the following lines

[manifest]
path = nrf
[zephyr]
base = zephyr

Hi,

After editing the config file is it ok to save in txt format or batch file ? 

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

Just save as type "All Files (*.*)"

Hi Heidi,

I have done this too. Config file saving in txt format. after changing config file also same error exist( config file is missing)

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

It should not be a text file. Can you confirm that the config file without an extension (the one with just type 'File') contains the following lines

[manifest]
path = nrf
[zephyr]
base = zephyr

[Shabeeb Av]

The mentioned config contain below lines and i tried to include above mentioned lines and saved as you mentioned earlier but it saving as txt file.

[core]
repositoryformatversion = 0
filemode = false
bare = false
logallrefupdates = true
symlinks = false
ignorecase = true
[remote "origin"]
url = github.com/.../fw-nrfconnect-nrf
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "master"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/heads/master

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

Okay, select Save as type "All Files (*.*)". Alternatively you can go in file explorer and select "file name extensions" like the picture below and then remove the ".txt" ending from the config file.

Hi Heidi,

Done this too.  We are getting same error.

[Heidi-Irene Harvey Sollie]

Okay, could you delete the ncs-folder and just reinstall west?

[Shabeeb Av]

Able to do west update now.

Not able to set zephyr base as below screen shot.
