cmake failed

[Marcous]

I have downloaded the nrf connect sdk 1.7.1 and want to use the newset version of nordic official sdk. However, I have tried so many times to delete and redownload the sdk, when I build the direction_finding_connectionless_rx or direction_finding_connectionless_tx, it always turns out cmake error.  By the way, I have chosen the right board, which is nrf52833dk-52833, and even the simplest project blinky_pwm wasn't working good. The error seemed the same. 

error: Aborting due to Kconfig warnings

Hi,

Please try the fixes in this guide and see if any of them solves your issue: Common fixes for nRF Connect SDK build problems.

If you are still getting this error after going through the guide, please let me know.

Best regards,

Marte

Hi Marte,

I must say sorry that, try as I might, I could not find a solution to the problem.

I have changed the download path to C/ncs disk and E/ncs to avoid a long path, but after trying to redownload the nrf connect SDK v1.7.1  and delete, it still did not work well.

Most of the time, in a clean folder without anything about nrf connect, after downloading the SDK for the first time, the result is like this:

And I try to do update SDK and update the toolchain, it goes well with SDK, like what I have downloaded of version v1.6.0:

But in v1.7.1, as the same problem I mentioned in the main ticket, it could not build a single demo with any board successfully.  

Best regards,

Marcous

Hi Marcous,

What are you using to build the samples, SES, VS Code, command line, or something else? How are you building? Can you share the entire log from when the error occurs?

Best regards,

Marte

Hi,

I am unable to reproduce your issue.

Can you try building with west on command line and see if you get the same error? Press the down arrow next to Open Segger Embedded Studio and select Open bash or Open command prompt. Go to the directory of the hello world sample in the terminal and build by issuing the following command:

west build -b nrf52833dk_nrf52833

You can also try building using VS Code and our extension, nRF Connect for VS Code. For more information on how to use this, you can see nRF Connect for VS Code documentation and nRF Connect for VS Code tutorials.

Best regards,

Marte

Hi Marte，

Hi,

I have been trying to reproduce your issue, but so far I have not been able to do so.

Have you made any changes to any of the files in the SDK? Are you using VPN when downloading the SDK and/or the toolchain through Toolchain Manager?

Another option is to try to install the SDK manually, by following this guide: Installing manually.

Best regards,

Marte
