Segger Embedded Studio - nRF Connect SDK: create_nordic_project.py failed (1)

[nagesh.shamnur]

on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS i have setup nRF connect SDK. When i try to configure segger Embedded studio. I am getting the error "create nordic project.py failed". I have connected Arduino nano 33 BLE sense board. 

Following are my selection:

SDK Release: 1.5.1

nrf connect toolchain version: NONE (use SES settings/ environment path)  --> i have set the path in tools -> options -> nrf connect btoh toolchain directory (~/gnuarmemb/bin) and zephyr base (~/ncs/zephyr)

projects: hello_world

Board Name : "nrf52840dk_nrf52840". --> i have connected arduino nano 33 BLE sense board

Let me know what i am missing here. Thanks

The nRF52840 DK has an integrated J-Link interface, making it possible to flash and debug the device. In general, every nRF52840 can be programmed like this, but you probably need an external programmer to be able to do that with the nRF52840 on the Arduino.

However, this should not keep you from building the hello_world application with target nrf52840dk_nrf52840 in the nRF Connect SDK.

Would you mind trying the following?

1. Open a Terminal and navigate to the hello_world application folder within the ncs.
2. Run the command west build -b nrf52840dk_nrf52840
3. Provide me with the build log.

Thanks!

Thanks for the kind reply. However i don't have nrf52840DK board with me. Initially i tried NCS thinking that i can use this tool to build and flash arduino which is powered by nRF52840 soc. Even though i succeed to build nRF52840DK i would be in no way to use that image. 

So, coming back to my original question, can i use ncs/segger to flash arduino nano for which i am inferring NO as an answer based on your previous reply. Correct me if i have interpreted your reply in a different way.

Thanks
