Thank you Simon for your reply.

I reinstalled nRF connect SDK v1.2.0 using the new tool "Toolchain Manager".

I removed the old sdk and gnuarmemb folders and paths before.

I started from scratch and now I'm in 2. Set up a project (before starting managing my projest with west). I am able to build the project using segger embedded studio but got errors using west build as shown below:

west build -b nrf9160_pca10090ns -d build_nrf9160_pca10090ns
-- west build: build configuration:
       source directory: D:\DEV\Phantomtracker\software\my_projects\project_hello\hello_world

I have the project forlder outside ncs, so I tried setting the following

set ZEPHYR_TOOLCHAIN_VARIANT="gnuarmemb"
set GNUARMEMB_TOOLCHAIN_PATH=D:\DEV\nRF\ncs\v1.2.0\toolchain\opt

but no luck.

I have

West version: v0.6.3
Python 3.8.1

I prefer using the command line, it's much simpler.

any ideas why I'm having this errors !

Regars,

Hicham

I tested your project and was not able to recreate your issue. What's your west version and python version? I got the following:

<..>\project_hello\project_hello>west --version && python --version
West version: v0.6.3
Python 3.8.0

Best regards,

Simon
