Question

STM32Cube Debug Jlink GDB Server V1.2.0 is not starting GDB Server

Hello,

With the new STM32Cube Debug Jlink GDB Server V1.2.0 I'm not anymore able to start the debugging session. If I downgrade to V1.1.0 then it is working again. I get always the error message "No GDB Server running". I tried that with my old launch.json settings and with the new generated and adapted json settings.

  • Do I miss some special settings or has the new extension a bug?
  • Or do i need any dependency?

 

error message:

old launch.json

new launch.json

Thanks in advance,
nobody

Hi @nobody 

try to upgrade your jlink FW, this message is generally shown when the FW version is too old comparing to the server

Hi Nawres,

Unfortunately that is not the problem. I updated the Segger J-Trace to latest firmware, but it is still not working.

Mhm, interesting.

I can not do a project setup, that is in my case greyed out. Why is that not possible? The project is from .ioc generated with the cmake option selected.

Were there any changes made, which explains why the old version is working and the new one not anymore?
