Hello-World cannot connect to redlinkserver

lee2 — Mon, 24 Aug 2020 22:31:22 GMT

Hello,

I am using the MCUXpresso IDE v11.2.0 and SDK 2.8.0 on the EVK-MIMXRT1064 board. I imported the hello_world example from the SDK. It builds all right without any errors or warnings. But when I try debugging it, I get the following error messages. I tried to restart the "redlinkserv.exe" several times by clicking the "Clean UP Debug" button but the results were the same. I screen captured the messages. Also, included is the .log file in the ~\workspace\.metadata.

Could you direct me how to resolve the issue?

Thank you very much in advance.

-Mike

Looks like firewall is preventing the connection to redlinkserv. In your firewall settings, allow redlinkserv to accept connections.

Which version of Windows are you using?

Thank you for your reply. It make sense to me. I am using Windows 7 Professional. Is the OS supported?

Yes, the OS is supported. As I said, it looks like your firewall is preventing it from working. You need to change your firewall settings as described above.

You were right. Firewall was the culprit. Thank you so much.
