MCUXpresso for VSCode cannot run hello on MCXN947

marcocavallini — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 13:23:58 GMT

I am experimenting with MCXN947 using MCUXpresso for VSCode.

Build machine Ubuntu 22.04.
VSCode version 1.88.1

Installed the components using MCUXpresso Installer v.1.2

MCUXpresso SDK (2.14.0)
LinkServer
ARM GNU toolchain
Standalone toolchain addons
CMSIS toolbox

Then I followed the excellent guide Getting Started with MCUXpresso for Visual Studio Code by @kyledando

I am able to build frdmmcxn947_hello_world

The board is connected via USB-C cable (J17 MCU-LINK) to the PC (USB Port)

And detected as MCU-LINK FRDM-MCXN947

$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 087: ID 1fc9:0143 NXP Semiconductors MCU-LINK FRDM-MCXN947 (r0E7) CMSIS-DAP V3.128

Unfortunately when I try to debug it I get popup message showing "Unable to start debugging. Debug server process failed to initialize".

The message pretends to open launch.json

{ "configurations": [ { "type": "cppdbg", "name": "Debug project configuration", "request": "launch", "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}", "MIMode": "gdb", "setupCommands": [ {"text": "set remotetimeout 600"}, {"text": "set debug-file-directory"} ], "program": "", "miDebuggerServerAddress": "", // Remote GDB server address. If this is provided, "debugServerPath" will not be auto-completed. "variables": { "mcuxStopAtSymbol": "main", // Initial breakpoint "mcuxSerialNumber": "HU4NSCTMxxxxx", // Probe serial number. If not specified, the one from the selected debug probe (in extension view) will be used. "mcuxAttach": "false", // Start debug in attach mode "mcuxRemoteProbeType": "", // Remote Probe Type ("LinkServer", "SEGGER", "PEmicro") used only when connecting to a remote server "mcuxSkipBuildWhenDebug": "false" // Skip build when debug }, "logging": { "engineLogging": false } } ] }

At this point I'm stuck and I can't figure out how to proceed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

Can you please make enableLogging as true in your launch config, debug once again and attach here the log?

Regards,

Cristian

Hi @cristiantepus @Pavel_Hernandez I'm trying to run debug session in VSCode. I have similar setup, except I'm using Windows OS.

I have similar issue, this is my launch.json file:

{ "configurations": [ { "type": "cppdbg", "name": "Debug project configuration", "request": "launch", "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}", "MIMode": "gdb", "setupCommands": [ {"text": "set remotetimeout 600"}, {"text": "set debug-file-directory"} ], "program": "D:\\vscode\\projects\\embedded\\frdm-mcxn947\\frdmmcxn947_led_blinky\\armgcc\\debug\\led_blinky.elf", "miDebuggerPath": "D:\\Program Files (x86)\\GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain\\10 2021.10\\bin\\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe", "miDebuggerArgs": "localhost:3333", "variables": { "mcuxStopAtSymbol": "main", // Initial breakpoint "mcuxSerialNumber": "JUSOLFVVYXBVB", // Probe serial number. If not specified, the one from the selected debug probe (in extension view) will be used. "mcuxAttach": "false", // Start debug in attach mode "mcuxRemoteProbeType": "LinkServer", // Remote Probe Type ("LinkServer", "SEGGER", "PEmicro") used only when connecting to a remote server "mcuxSkipBuildWhenDebug": "false" // Skip build when debug }, "logging": { "engineLogging": true } } ] }

Hello, sorry for the late response, I tried on mi Linux PC and at the first time have the same issue but then the VSCODE detect the board and I will start the Debug session.

{ "configurations": [ { "type": "cppdbg", "name": "Debug project configuration", "request": "launch", "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}", "MIMode": "gdb", "setupCommands": [ { "text": "set remotetimeout 600" }, { "text": "set debug-file-directory" } ], "program": "", "miDebuggerServerAddress": "", "variables": { "mcuxStopAtSymbol": "main", "mcuxSerialNumber": "WLEDDEPSMN35Q", "mcuxAttach": "false", "mcuxRemoteProbeType": "", "mcuxSkipBuildWhenDebug": "false" }, "logging": { "engineLogging": false } }, { "name": "C/C++: gcc-11 build and debug active file", "type": "cppdbg", "request": "launch", "program": "${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}", "args": [], "stopAtEntry": false, "cwd": "${fileDirname}", "environment": [], "externalConsole": false, "MIMode": "gdb", "setupCommands": [ { "description": "Enable pretty-printing for gdb", "text": "-enable-pretty-printing", "ignoreFailures": true }, { "description": "Set Disassembly Flavor to Intel", "text": "-gdb-set disassembly-flavor intel", "ignoreFailures": true } ], "preLaunchTask": "C/C++: gcc-11 build active file", "miDebuggerPath": "/usr/bin/gdb","variables": {"mcuxSerialNumber":"WLEDDEPSMN35Q"} } ], "version": "2.0.0" }

Look the differences from your JSON.

Let me know about the status of your issue.

Best regards,
Pavel

Hi @jwolinski ,

Can you please try an erase first (right click on project + erase, or, go to QuickStart Panel -> Flash Programmer -> Erase) then a debug again? Does this solve your connectivity issue?

Regards,

Cristian

Hello, no problem. For me the issue was solved right after I specifed Flash Programmer to Link Server in this window:

After that i flashed the board and finally I could start debug session, however I'm wondering why it was working because some fileds in json file like program, was not specified.

Thanks for your anwser!

Hi @cristiantepus, yes I think this was a problem.

Hi @marcocavallini,

The log does not contain relevant information. Additional info should be logged after:
...

[Warning] 1: (3221) STDERR: [2900]DEBUG:launcher.core.redlinkserv: [read] Loading "LS_preconnect_MCXN9XX.scp"
[Warning] 1: (3221) STDERR: [2900]DEBUG:launcher.core.redlinkserv: [write] run

Could you please try an erase first. This worked in a similar situation (see previous replies).

Thanks,

Nicu

@nicu_manescu

erasing flash prior to start debugging solved the issue. Now it works!

Thank you
