SES did not finish cmake in sample http_application_update

[Marc]

Hi

I am trying to install the SES toolchain on my PC (Win 8.1) following exactly the nRF Connect v3.2.0 Getting Started Assistant. When trying to "Open nRF Connect Project..." into SES 4.20a I get the following prompt:

Source file was:
int main(void) { return 0; }

There is no other output in SES Console.

The strange thing is, that the other samples such as lte_ble_gateway or asset_tracker build without problem with exactly the same setup.

I checked out tag v1.0.0 from the nrf github repo and I'm using cmake version 3.15.2 and west v0.6.2.

What is wrong with my setup or with this sample? I am stuck here.
