Another thing: could you give me the prj.conf file of your broadcaster project, as well as you autoconf.h if you have one? (it should be in the folder build/zephyr/include/generated/).

So the same error is showing, but additionally that folder is missing? That is strange. I have heard others experiencing the same thing, but simply re-installing fixes it all. The issue might be related to downloading through a VPN or a proxy.

No. I tried to re-install to SDK multiple times. The same error it showed. The SDK when I install, the nrf folder is missing in toolchain folder of SDKs. I copied the v1.9.1 from my colleague Laptop and when renamed the file it worked. I don't know the reason that SDKs installed from Tool chain Manager are missing some folders when I installed.

Are there any samples that you did manage to build successfully besides this?

All these builds work from my end, and I also only have the multirole soft device controller file. Interesting that the build was successful after simply renaming it, but I would recommend that you rather try reinstalling the SDK. The different SDCs are not interchangeable.

Hello Elfving,

Thanks for your reply.

The board I set up for nRF5340 DK is nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp. I got the error for nRF5340DK.

Below is actual error from above issue.

ninja: error: 'C:/ncs/v1.9.1/nrfxlib/softdevice_controller/lib/cortex-m33+nodsp/soft-float/libsoftdevice_controller_.a', needed by 'zephyr/zephyr_pre0.elf', missing and no known rule to make it

I checked the file path of v1.9.1 installed and found that '/libsoftdevice_controller_.a/ file is missing in ncs folder structure. I renamed file 'libsoftdevice_controller_multirole.a' to 'libsoftdevice_controller_.a'.

Then build was successful. Maybe the file missed while download or extraction. I don't know does it impacts in further the code if I renamed it.

Hello Yashwanth,

[quote user=""]When building, it is not taking as compatible board.[/quote]

There might be more boards that are compatible but not listed, as that would be a lot of boards to list. The documentation only says that a working BLE Host is required.

Are you getting the same error when building for the 5340DK, or the Qemu?
