Peripherals view empy in VSCode

[allard.p]

When I debug the peripherals box is always empty. I'm using a nRF9160 on a custom board, J-Link pro.

I reinstalled VScode including deleting all settings, and reinstalling all extensions, still nothing in the box.

What is going on here?

Hello,

Which version of NCS you are using?

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Kazi Afroza Sultana

[allard.p]

NCS 2.1.2

VSCode 1.73.1

Plugin v2022.10.30

JLINK 7.66d (not sure if this one is picked, or one installed with the plugin/ncs)

[Kazi Afroza Sultana]

I have asked our team. I will let you know soon.

[Kazi Afroza Sultana]

Could you please send us the support information? You can generate it by clicking as shown in the screenshot.

It would also be helpful if you could open the Developer Tools and see if there are any errors in the console. You can find it by clicking ''Help'' and and then ''Toggle Developer Tools'' in the main bar. Then you have to click the Console tab in the window that opens.

See attachment for the support info, I've cut some sensitive data and replaced it with '<CUT>'. Somehow "config"/"applications" contained a path to a whole other project.

The devtools log shows soms errors, also an error about nrf9160.svd, I think this is the file that the debugger needs to properly show peripheral registers? The path that is tries the access is correct, but the drive letter (D:\) is missing.
