nRF Connect SDK 1.3.0 multi-image build stuck

[rerickson]

I am switching from standard Zephyr and I am trying out nRF connect SDK v1.3.0. When I am building my app for mcuboot, it hangs after configuring the child image (mcuboot).  If I build mcuboot or the app by itself it works just fine.  It seems like something is hanging in the partition_manager script.  I see a python process spinning in Activity Monitor forever, when I kill it, then the build process fails out.  See my output here:

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Strange, it should work out-of-the-box. 

Could you try the following:

• Install NCS v1.3.0 using the Toolchain Manager
• Add CONFIG_BOOTLOADER_MCUBOOT=y to <..>\ncs\v1.3.0\zephyr\samples\hello_world\prj.conf

Open the bash window from the Toolchain Manager, cd into /ncs/v1.3.0/zephyr/samples/hello_world and build the project:

west build -b nrf52840dk_nrf52840

If that works, you've successfully built and compiled a project with mcuboot as a child image

Best regards,

That does work, but I am interested in solving the issue with my project.  I have attached my input files that were used for the output above.

Okay, I was too quick to answer. Thanks for the files, I will try to reproduce the problem.

Could you provide the exact steps to reproduce it, where in NCS v1.3.0 should he files be placed, and what commands to run?

Best regards,

Simon
