Unable to debug application running from external PSRAM

[Kubis438]

Hello everyone.

In a couple of past days I was trying to make the code execution from external PSRAM to work. I managed to load the code into external FLASH and then copy it to PSRAM at boot stage. The code runs nice but can't debug it for some reason. Debugging worked when I was running the code directly from external FLASH but when I introduced copying the data to PSRAM and running it from there I started to get errors. It wont even let me Run the program if I dont exit the debugger.

I don't understand how it can't access the memory despite the application running fine.

 

Edit: I found out that if I debug Boot project but add symbols from Application project too I can debug both fine.

Hello @Kubis438 

Can you try to Delete all previous breakpoints, Inside CubeIDE: Window → Show View → Breakpoints → Remove All.

Thanks for suggestion but already tried that. It didn't help.

I've noticed that you've made changes to the description.

I assume that this is the root cause of your issue. It seems that the PSRAM was not initialized correctly, which led to the breakpoint error.
