Segger Embedded Studio doesn't work

[Yusuke]

OS: Mac

I installed nrf v1.2.0 and Segger Embedded Studio v4.42a. I can't open project and it causes error.

I can open projects with this config on SES v4.42a and nrf v1.1.0.

Any help?

[Håkon Alseth]

Hi,

 

It looks like CMake finds python 2.7 instead of the executable pointed to in SES.

Since you mention it works in ncs v1.1.0, it could be that your local cache is in a bad state. Could you try deleting it?

Here's how you do that in macos:

rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/zephyr/ToolchainCapabilityDatabase

 

Note that I would recommend that you use SES nordic edition v4.30c instead of v4.42 at this time, due to issues discovered here (for windows atleast, might behave different on MacOS):

Kind regards,

Håkon

[Yusuke]

I did it but the same result.

rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/zephyr/ToolchainCapabilityDatabase

[Håkon Alseth]

Hi,

 

I have tested with Catalina, and cannot get it to wrongly identify python to python2.7 at my end, unfortunately.

Which version of macos are you running?

 

Kind regards,

Håkon

[Yusuke]

I upgraded Mac OS to Catalina. I also deleted pyenv and am using python3.7 installed by homebrew. Now I get this error.

Any help?

[Mark Noller]

yusuke were you able to resolve this issue? I have the same issue and nothing seems to be working.

[Yusuke]

No I can't solve this issue. I gave it up. I'm using Windows10 now

[Mark Noller]

That is what I have had to do also. I come back and retry the Mac install every month or so.

[Yusuke]

No support from Nordic so far. I hope this will be solved in next nrf version.
