New to NCS 1.5.0, cmake failed,create_nordic_project.py failed

[daoms]

I'm new to NCS, and playing it with nrf5340 pdk kit.

My problem is ,I can't play any projects, all of them go to the same error: cmake failed,create_nordic_project.py failed

I'm not familiar with CMAKE thing, that makes me hard to understand how to make the NCS,it is totally different from nRF52 DK.

Any help to let me play hello_world, thanks.

Hello, 

I'm not able to reproduce this issue. Have you changed anything in the project? 

We have seen that long paths and spaces in path can cause issues. Can you please move the NCS install to e.g. C:\NCS\v1.5.0 ?

Kind regards,
Øyvind

path moved, problem is the same.

I'm not able trigger this, have you edited any files before building the project?

Please note that the nRF5340 PDK has been marked as deprecated 

[daoms]

No files modified ever.

So what's the error showed, I can't even find which keyword I can search on the internet.

I'm using the 5340pdk ,if it is deprecated, which board type can I choose?

When you changed the PATH, how did you do so? Did you reinstall NCS tag v1.5.0?

 This is because we have never see this error before. The error states:
unmet or cyclic dependencies in modules

../v1.5.0/modules/lib/connectedhomeip depends on: ['openthread']

The sample. peripheral_lbs, you are trying to run does not use connectedhomeip.

Then I recommend using the nRF5340 DK. From the NCS v1.5.0 release notes:
Marked the nRF5340 PDK as deprecated and updated the nRF5340 documentation to point to the nRF5340 DK.

Now I just reinstall the latest 1.5.1-rc1,I still failed to create any project.

It's difficult to play with this NCS, even the very first step.

The NCS is powerful, surely, but it seems to think more about the cross-platform thing, while less-friendly to most Windows users. 

I just want to play BLE, but now I have to be LINUXer first, to understand such cmake/script stuff.

Is it possible, in the future, to split the SDK for different OS to let developers focus on their applications ,not on this IDE/compile thing?
