.ARP File Error

[vandeja1]

I am trying to load a build to a new board with a K-64.  When I download it to the target, I get the following *.ARP error.  Has anyone run into this and more importantly, how do I fix this error?

I was able to get this to download succefully on a TWR board, and the build has been loaded onto another custom board with the same configuration as the one  currently using.  I am using a PE Micro, Multilink Universal for downloading....

Any information would be really helpful and appreciated....

I also had a similar issue, but I figured it out. (I'm using an eval board with an on-board PEMicro debugging chip) The micro-USB cable which plugs into the eval board CAN'T be plugged into some USB hubs. Debugging the eval board WON’T work when the cable is plugged into:

• Anker 4-to-1 USB type-A hub
• DELL docking station (in my case, this one: https://www.cpumedics.com/dell-k20a001-wd19tb-k20a001-k20a-wd19-thunderbolt-docking-station-with-180...)

It WILL work with:
• Dell USB-A/HDMI to USB-C hub (https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Type-C-Type-Adapter-Component/dp/B08YW13SG3)
• USB-C to USB-A direct adapter
• Of course, plugging straight into a USB-A port directly on the laptop

My problem is that my new laptop only has USB-C ports on it, so I've got a few adapters/hubs to support all the USB-A connections I have. Thankfully I thought to try another one.

Hope this helps someone!

I had pretty much the same thing. It was on a custom designed board with a K10DX256VlLL7 and it was working fine, programming no worries, then suddenly it wasn't and I got the .ARP load error etc.. It turned out that I'd damaged the microcontroller when I'd been doing some modifications to the circuit board. Removing the old part and fitting a new one solved it for me. A more meaningful error message (i..e: "Your chip is stuffed") would have saved me some time chasing about wondering what was going on. Hope this helps someone.
Cheers.

hi Jason,

is this problem in a specific project or a common issue for all project? if you create a new project with wizard, then launch debugger, how does it work?

note: please remove .metadata folder then reopen workspace for test.

Have a great day,
Zhang Jun
