Hello Bhavin,

Since KDS is in maintenance mode, is better to use MCUXpresso IDE as stated by Carlos.

Anyway, I have take a look on issue reported. According to attached screenshot found, that you are re-installing KDS on machine where was already installed once.

Linux DEB KDS installer has known bug, when is reinstalled over existing KDS installation on Linux Ubuntu.

In case you still need any work with KDS, you need to uninstall KDS first and then install again (also for any next re-installation on one machine).

to fix your problem run:

$ sudo dpkg -r kinetis-design-studio‍

when program is uninstalled run again installer by using

$ sudo dpkg -i kinetis-design-studio_3.2.0-1_amd64.deb‍‍‍‍‍

We are sorry for any inconveniences may have caused.

Best Regards,

Martin

Hi Bhavin,

If you are starting your development I would recommend you to look at MCUXpresso IDE rather than KDS IDE. This is actually a 64bit installation now (rather than 32bit as KDS was) - which makes it much each to get installed and running on 64bit version of Ubuntu.

Full installation instructions for MCUXpresso IDE can be found in the Installation Guide available from:

http://www.nxp.com/mcuxpresso/ide/documentation

Hope it helps!

I do not see any errors in you screenshot. What exactly is the error? Have you tried running the product? Does it run?
