spm/libspmsecureentries.a: No such file or directory

[pctj101]

Hi,

With the NRF Connect / NCS SDK, I can build the asset_tracker and serial_lte_modem without issue.

I want to make my own project, so I copied asset_tracker entirely into asset_tracker2.

Now the project won't build:

Linking ‘zephyr_prebuilt.elf’

  spm/libspmsecureentries.a: No such file or directory

Indeed that libspmsecureentries.a only appears when I build in the asset_tracker directory and not asset_tracker2

I tried the same with serial_lte_modem -> serial_lte_modem2 and it also leaves out the same libspmsecureentries.a

Being that it's only the directory name that changed, what is it about my environment that is causing libspmsecureentries.a to be skipped?

FYI same problem if i build with ninja on the command line.  Already tried deleting the build_* directory for the respective projects, but same problem.

Hi! 

I am able to copy an application, rename it, build it and flash it to my device so I'll need more information to be able to reproduce this issue. 

Are you moving the projects from their original location? Which NCS version are you using?

I am using west in the command line. Should I try with SES as well?

Best regards,

Heidi

Good to know that you are not having issues.  What west/ncs are you using?

in ncs/nrf, I'm on (tag: v1.4.2)

and of course west is updated.

same issue on command line and SES, so if I solve the CLI version that would make me most happy

And copied directories are in the same directory (just different folder)

so like

/applications/asset_tracker

/applications/asset_tracker2

I'm testing on the same NCS tag you are one with west version 0.7.2. 

So you copy the asset_tracker directory to the same location, name it asset_tracker2, run west build -b nrf9160dk_nrf9160ns -p and get errors? Could you copy the exact error messages and paste them in your next comment?
