Hello,

I would like to provide some more information about the issue that i signalled during yesterdays workshop. Hopefully these will help to get a solution.

When trying to debug an example projet in the CubeIDE I get the following error:

0693W00000DmVD4QAN.pngHowever, when I open a new Command Shell Console in the IDE and type the command "arm-none-eab-gdb --version" i get the following answer:

0693W00000DmVCaQAN.pngOther helpfull information:

  • Windows 10,
  • Tried reinstalling to default directory as @Jocelyn RICARD​ suggested
  • I have tried to force the use of other toolchains via Preferences->STM32Cube->Toolchain Manager. It didn't help
  • I am using another IDE with different versions of arm-none-eabi on the same computer

Is there maybe another method to solve my issue?

Best regards,

Marcin

    Hello Marcin,

    first I have added the STM32CubeIDE topic to make your post visible in to the right people.

    On my side, I tried to reproduce what you have shared.

    I launched a command shell console (I didn't even know it existed before :grinning_face: ) using the Command Shell Console in the console window:

    But it does not allow me to launch this gdb command. The path is not set.

    But I may be launching this in the wrong way.

    I also tried to launch directly the gdb command from where it is in the installation directory:

    And here is what I get:

    icrosoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.1110]

c:\STM32\Tools\STM32CubeIDE\V1.7.0\STM32CubeIDE\plugins\com.st.stm32cube.ide.mcu.externaltools.gnu-tools-for-stm32.9-2020-q2-update.win32_2.0.0.202105311346\tools\bin>arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe --version

    So, it does not seem to point to the same version.

    I guess some path setup in your system take precedence to the one used by STM32CubeIDE.

    Maybe you could check your PATH variable.

    When I open a simple command shell, arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe is not found.

    Best regards

    Jocelyn
