Installing Command Line Tools 10.4.0 fails on MacOS (10.14.6)

Installing the new nRF-Command-Line-Tools_10_4_0_OSX.pkg fails on MacOS (10.14.6). The installer gets to the summary stage and displays an error "please contact the supplier".

Installing the 10.3.0 in the same way succeeds.

  • Hi,

    We have now released nRF Command Line Tools v10.4.1, where the issue of failing installer on MacOS is fixed.

    The issue of nrfjprog failing on MacOS and GNU/Linux is also fixed.

    For those of you using the nRF91 series this means you now have the fixes introduced in v10.4.0 working on all platforms.

    Regards,
    Terje

  • Hi Tesc, nrfjprog still fails on my Mac after installing v10.4.1. The installer works fine, but running nrfjprog goes like this:

    $ ./nrfjprog --reset --program /var/folders/tq/c6wwp0ks41zdg9d9w9t5y32w0000gn/T/arduino_build_392483/sketch_oct10a.ino.hex --sectorerase -f nrf52
    ERROR: JLinkARM DLL load failed. Try again. If it keeps failing, please
    ERROR: reinstall latest JLinkARM from Segger webpage.

    I ran the JLink installer in the Nordic package, same effect.

    I ran the official JLink installer from SEGGER, same effect.

    Any ideas?

  • Do you have a folder name just "JLink" in this folder which points to your JLink_V654a folder?

    My current installation:

    $ pwd

    /Applications/SEGGER

    $ ls -l

    total 0

    lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel    32 Nov 15 09:48 JLink -> /Applications/SEGGER/JLink_V654c

    drwxr-xr-x  41 root  wheel  1312 Jul 16 21:31 JLink_V644e

    drwxr-xr-x  48 root  wheel  1536 Nov 15 09:48 JLink_V654c

  • Yes:

    $ cd /Applications/SEGGER/
    $ ls -l
    total 0
    lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 32 Nov 5 21:05 JLink -> /Applications/SEGGER/JLink_V654a
    drwxr-xr-x 46 root wheel 1472 Nov 4 22:34 JLink_V650b
    drwxr-xr-x 48 root wheel 1536 Nov 5 21:05 JLink_V654a

  • Please try to install nrfjprog v10.5.0 if you still see the issue. This release included some improvements that might be relevant to this. And if that doesn't help you may also try to install Jlink v.6.54c

  • Hey Vidor,

    I'm getting much further with 10.5.0, now it appears my JLinkARM device's serial number of '-1' is stopping things. I've attached the log here:

    nrfjprog seems intent on /not/ checking the serial number, so why is it halting on the result of "Segger_connect_to_emu_without_snr"?

    Thanks,

  • Excellent, it looks to be correctly installed now. But the SN shouldn't be '-1', maybe you have a jlink clone? I found a similar forum post about that here: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/43197/nrfjproj-error-jlinkarm-dll-reported-an-error. In that case I would consider to be a Nordic dev kit. It has an on-board Jlink lite.
