Debugger problem with Segger Embedded Studio 4.30c

[Fabien Comte]

Hello,

I tried to run debugger but I got this error. Do someone have an idea please ? It's the same error with aws_fota sample.

Hi!

Could you be more specific about what steps you're doing before you get this error?

Are you trying to run a sample or your own application?

Where is your NCS directory located, and where is the application you are running located in relation to the NCS directory?

Have you tried flashing using the command line (west build -b nrf9160_pca10090ns -d build -p) - do you get the same error here?

I think you should try deleting your whole NCS directory and installing it again. 

Best regards,

Heidi

Thank you for your help.

You can reproduce it with aws fota sample.

Steps are:
- import project
- build
- try to run debugger on it

I tried west build but I got an error that build is an invalid argument.

New NCS => no change.

I found something. It expects an ELF file but it's a HEX file that is targeted. I am searching why.

[Fabien Comte]

Does anyone can tell me how to change HEX target to ELF (I not found where it's done)

Hi! Not sure what you mean by that. I wasn't able to reproduce your error, unfortunately.

 However, if running west build -b nrf9160_pca10090ns -d build -p gives you that build is an invalid argument, you don't have west installed.

Did you go through the Getting Started Assistant in nRF Connect?

Specifically, in step 2 they ask you to run pip3 install west.

Please open project in SES and don't use command to build but SES (like the way used in getting started) and you will see.
