Debugging with AEK-MCU-SPC5LNK but no debugging information showed

Hi,

I am working with an AEK-MCU-C4MLIT1, and trying to debug using the debugger AEK-MCU-SPC5LNKA through the JTAG port. I did a very simple code because all I am interested in now is to ensure that the debugger works properly. The debugging session seems to start properly, as no errors or interruptions occur during the starting phase. The problem is that "Peripherals" and "Memory" are complitely empty while the debug session is running. At the beginning of every debug session the following message shows up: "Break at address "0x404100" with no debug information available, or outside of program code." May it be related to the problem I am encountering?. What I could do? 

Thanks.

Hello,

Are you using an eclipse based software environment? if yes it is necessary in debug configuration to configure the relative SVD file.

For the memory you should select the start address of the portion of the memory mapped that you want view.

Hi,

Please follow the Quick Start Guide to properly set your OpenOCD environment and make sure you have installed the drivers:

Hi Max,

Thanks for your reply. I have followed the guide and I still have the problem, but the debugging works anyway, so I will go on like that.

Thanks for your help.

Best.
