Hello,

Are you following a specific guide or tutorial? - are you developing using Segger Embedded studio?
Which CMake and nRF Connect SDK versions are you using?
I have heard from customers that faced this same error that updating their CMake solved the issue.

Please see this section for our recommended way of installing the toolchain and Connect SDK.
Could you also provide the full command you ran when this error occurred?

Judging by the error message you provided, it seems that not enough arguments was provided to the CMake command.
As mentioned above, this might be dependent on what CMake version you are using.

Best regards,
Karl

Yes, i am using segger embedded studio (nordic edition), I have updated CMake from 3.14 to 3.17.2 even though I am getting the same error. I have installed nrf connect sdk using the toolchain manager.

[Karl Ylvisaker]

Which Segger Embedded Studio version are you using? Could you also tell me if you are following a tutorial or guide?

[Bhavit Rajput]

Segger (nordic edition) v4.52, nrf connect desktop tool is available in which application is there called as toolchain manager where the option is available to install sdk I have just clicked that button and it has installed all the necessary things for sdk including segger studio.

Ok, thanks for your support, after installing SDK in C drive my problem got solved automatically.
