Failed to set startup completion breakpoint: main symbol not found

[Jan Erik]

Hi,

I'm almost finished setting up a development environment for nRF52840 DK on macOS.

I used the new Toolchain Manager to install everything, and then imported the "peripheral" bluetooth sample project.

It builds and runs fine, but when trying to debug I get this error message:
Failed to set startup completion breakpoint: main symbol not found

And when I click OK I get this error message right after:
Failed to set initial breakpoint: z_cstart symbol not found

I've looked through the previous posts on this forum about the same error, but most of the suggested fixes didn't work for me and the rest involved changing some settings I couldn't find in the current macOS version of the IDE.

Every setting is also straight out of the box from the toolchain manager / sample project.

Any idea what I can try?

Let me know if you need any extra information, but please leave a description of how to get it as well. This is my first day in this ecosystem.

Edit: I tried to debug with the blinky example, and that works fine.

Best regards,

Hello,

I was able to replicate the same here, but not sure what's causing it yet. As a temporary workaround, please try to load they symbols manually as the screenshot below shows. I will update the ticket as soon as I have more details.

Best regards,
