Hi @SimoneColomboWEG

Please try to install the latest version of the Linkserver on that machine. Lets see if installing the drivers makes a difference. What is your OS? Do all the machines have the same OS and version?

Also, try to update the on-board LPC55 to run the latest version of CMSIS DAP. If this does not make any change at all, try testing with JLink FW. Let me know if you need more steps for this!

Thanks Diego,

all pc with this problem is winodws 11 pro 24H2 build 26100.6584 the same as mine (that works). we have just tried to download the latest link server, the Lpc55 onboard is the latest version. as i said i can use (with another collegue) the boards with no problem, it runs correctly but the other two collegue there is no way to works!

FYI i'm working on a 24.x skd version (because i can't update for TSN support) and works correctly also with this version.

Hi @SimoneColomboWEG

Thank you for your update and report! ( @William_Weg please use similar path for finding the JLink FW on Linkserver 25.9 : C:\nxp\LinkServer_25.9.134\MCU-LINK_installer\scripts )

After first log in, I could install the version 25.9, So unfortunatelly I could not replicate the issue! but, I suggest to install Linkserver package directly from this page https://www.nxp.com/design/design-center/software/development-software/mcuxpresso-software-and-tools-/linkserver-for-microcontrollers:LINKERSERVER

Please let me know your results, guys

Diego

Hi @William_Weg

thank you for your update!

I was able to update FW on my side

I placed a jumper on JP3 and power cycled the whole EVK.

I am using this schematic revison:

What is the schematic revision that you are using? Does update also fails with CMSIS DAP?

Thank you,

Diego

Goodmorning Diego,
we have just tried to program debugger as Segger and works but our target is using like CMSIS Link debug.
I've an update maybe to understand the behaviour,we use an SVN server to share the code in the team, we share oonly the project folder, the metadata and not the debug folder, for me and for other user(we have just adnn a now colleague yesterday, as i said, all works good) for other two not we have the problem above. BUT the weird comes here: if i export the project via zip(project and reference form mcuxpresso function) with no debug folder nothig works as like SVN, BUT if i export the project and reference with debug folder all works also on a William pc.
the other weird behaviour is when not works if i jump to a works peoject i need to reset the debugger, is looks like stuck...
