asset_tracker_v2 build error in NRF Connect SDK V1.8

[Neculai Agavriloaie]

Hi, 

Trying to build the asset_tracker_v2 application I finally get the following error:

Rebuilding ‘zephyr / zephyr.elf’ from solution ‘build’ in configuration ‘Common’
Compiling ‘dev_handles.c’
Compiling ‘isr_tables.c’
Linking ‘zephyr.elf’
Post-link command
[WinError 2] The system cannot find the specified file

The software packages used are:
NRF Connect SDK V1.8
SES Nordic Edition V5.68

Trying to compile the same application from NRF Connect V1.71 is successful.

Thank You!

Neculai

Hello Neculai,

are you able to successfully build the Asset Tracker V2 application in NCS v1.8.0 outside of SES, via a command line build?

Regards,

Markus

Hi,

I did what you said and got the following result:

Looks like something is going on with SES.

The error in SES persists as follows:

Checking ‘mcuboot/zephyr/zephyr.hex’

modules/mcuboot/mcuboot_subimage-prefix/src/mcuboot_subimage-stamp/mcuboot_subimage-build does not exist.

Combining ‘mcuboot/zephyr/zephyr.hex’

[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified

What do you think?

Thanks a lot for your feedback, Neculai.

Yes, your toolchain setup appears to be correct at least, which is good. How does your nRF Connect Options window in SES look like? Can you share a print screen?

Thank you, Neculai!

Your GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain Directory appears to be incorrect. It should be something like C:/gnuarmemb/version-folder.
