On my Ubuntu 20.04, Flashing of STM32MP157C-DK2 with STMCubeProgrammer fails with the following error I easily reproduced using the scripts:

$ STM32_Programmer.sh -c port=usb1 -w FlashLayout_sdcard_stm32mp157c-dk2-trusted.tsv

Error: TSV flashing service failed

Indeed, the programmer is looking at a path which does not match with current filesystem.

I have got this errors for all the files the programmer was looking for. I have solved it by adding to symbolic links (instead of moving directories). For example:

0 [30 janv.-16:09:33] vincent@colin:~/Documents/03_DEV/STM32MP1/en.FLASH-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5-10-dunfell-mp1-21-11-17_tar_v3.1.0/stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.10-dunfell-mp1-21-11-17/images/stm32mp1/flashlayout_st-image-weston/trusted
$ ln -s ../../arm-trusted-firmware/ .

    Hi @vlacr.1​ ,

    tsv file are built with related path to binaries from "/stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.10-dunfell-mp1-21-11-17/images/stm32mp1"

    You have to run CubeProg from this path and use CLI command : 

    vincent@colin: cd ~/Documents/03_DEV/STM32MP1/en.FLASH-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5-10-dunfell-mp1-21-11-17_tar_v3.1.0/stm32mp1-openstlinux-5.10-dunfell-mp1-21-11-17/images/stm32mp1
vincent@colin: STM32_Programmer_CLI -c port=usb1 -w flashlayout_st-image-weston/trusted/FlashLayout_sdcard_stm32mp157c-dk2-trusted.tsv
