STM32 STM32F103C6T6A Bug report

I am trying to program STM32 blue-pill board with STM32F103C6T6A  microcontroller and using STM32CUBE IDE. But nothing is able to upload the program to the microcontroller. When trying to upload the program, the following error messages are showing. Is there anyone in this forum? Who has done blue-pill board programming using STM32F103C6T6A  and STM32CUBE IDE before? What is the problem here? How to resolve this problem?

    This thread relates to a so-called Blue Pill, which uses illegally cloned STM32F103. ST resources are only dedicated to supporting genuine ST products. We are not committed to ensuring that clones/fakes products work properly with the firmware we provide.

    We recommend to purchase genuine products from STMicroelectronics and purchase them from known and trusted distributors.

    This thread will now be locked. However, if you face difficulties while using genuine ST products, we’re here to assist you. Please feel free to start a new thread, and our team, along with community members, will be ready to help you with any issues/questions you encounter.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Hello @khatus and welcome to the ST Community :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:.

    The Blue Pill is not an ST product, and the chip on it will (almost) certainly not be genuine. So, can you please switch to one of our STM32 official boards.

    Best Regards.

    Not sure this is a "Bug Report" as much as an "Inability to Use Report"

    ST doesn't support boot-leg ST-LINK equipment.

    You'd do better with a NUCLEO-F103 board at a first excursion.

    The ST-LINK might also generally want a connection to NRST so it can gain control of the part.

    You could perhaps try STM32 Cube Programmer to check / erase the part, removing any loader or existing code that may be running on the board.

    For LINUX you might have to free-climb your technical support.

    It looks to get initial connectivity so you might look at the BOOTx jumpers, or keeping the speed of the connection down, say 1 or 2 MHz rather than 8 MHz

    You don't show your ST-LINK/V2 nor it's connectivity to your board. DuPont jumper wires can be very lose and intermittent.

    Since you're using OpenOCD, you should be contacting them for support on their software.

    In the mean time just use ST-LINK GDB Server as the debug probe
