Hello,

I worked with LPCXpresso fine till today.
After switch ON computer, LPCXpresso cannot start debug session !!


Facts:
- OS: Windows XP 32bit
- LPCXpresso version 7.6.0 [Build 321] [2015-01-26]
- debug probe: KEIL Ulink2
- Target device: LPC1549 on my board
- test connection included target , debug probe, and  KEIL MDK (eval. version) - works fine
- same connection with LPCXpresso - not working. Cannot start debug. Error message:

Yes. You can install most Eclipse (Luna) plugins into LPCXpresso.

Hello,

I have a fresh information.

I do a reproduce the problem (Win XP again) :
- installed LPCXpresso newest version (7.6.2 build 326): working fine
- after install a plugin "Eclipse GitHub integration with task focused interface" (Eclipse GitHub integration with task focused interface): stop working. Cannot start redlink server. After start redlinkserver.exe manually, works OK.

It's possible install 3-rd part plugin for LPCXpresso ???

thank you.

Ed.

Out of curiosity, have you replaced the Windows XP telnet client with another? Outwardly, it appears the LPCXpresso IDE has a problem opening a telnet session to the Redlink Server. It's unclear if the Redlink Server is simply not starting, or there is a problem with the telnet client.

Because Windows XP is no longer supported, we can be of no further assistance. It seems you've found a workaround of sorts, and that is to start the server manually.

Hello support,

I have a fresh information.

- redlink server does not start from LPCXpresso IDE.

If I start manually in command line (redlinkserv.exe), LPCXpresso found Keil probe.

.. but If I close debug session, redlinkserver will stop responding. Need's start manually again.

OK,

1. Double check: No zombie process arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe, crt_emu_cm_redlink.exe, or redlinkserv.exe in task list.
2. reconnected Keil ULINK2 USB cable (another USB port for sure)
3. start LPCXpresso
4. Zombie check again: No zombie process arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe, crt_emu_cm_redlink.exe, or redlinkserv.exe in task list.
5. Open RedLink server console:

[Connected on port 3025]
redlink>

and clear window
6. Start debug (Ends with error)
7. Contetnt of RedLinkServer Window: - yes, it's empty
... 

p.s., in attachment you can find logfile from workspace.


p.s.2. If I try write to RedLink Server console window, server is reconnect and no answer:

[Connected on port 3025]
redlink>
probelist

[Connected on port 3025]

Let's back up a bit.

1. Make certain you have no zombie arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe, crt_emu_cm_redlink.exe, or redlinkserv.exe processes in your task list.
2. Cycle power to your Keil ULINK (unplug/plug in), and connected board.
3. Open the RedlinkServer console window, and select Clear from the right mouse button menu.
4. Attempt to start a new debug session. Presuming it fails, Select All in the RedlinkServer console from the right mouse button menu, and paste the results into your reply.

Yes, I hasn't debbuging problem till yesterday too...

OK, test for listusb:

- No, I cannot because I cannot start any debug session ....

- I was check this . Not found any zombie tasks in task list....

Quote:
After doing this, unplug and replug your board and probe back into your PC. Can you then start a debug session?

---

- Yes, I tried approx milion times (OK, tens times) but without success. Same error, same results.

About USB:
I don't use USB HUB. My USB ports looks good. I use another USB devices without any problems.

On same PC I also tried Keil uVision with same debugger probe and cables - without problem.

I tried uninstall LPCXpresso and install again - same result. Cannot find debug probe.



Problem looks as redlink server and his public connections I mean.
Is any way to test exactly this? Or start with logging?

I've just tried debugging an LPC1549 here via a ULINK2 and see no problems (though this was on Win7).

If you run the "listusb" command in the LPCXpresso {install_dir}\lpcxpresso\bin\Scripts directory from a command prompt after plugging in the ULINK2 it should show up as a pair of devices. Does it?

VID: C251 PID: 2722 (HID-compliant device)
VID: C251 PID: 2722 (USB Input Device)

I would also try the following...

Ensure you have shut down any previous debug sessions (press the Red 'terminate' button). Even after doing this it is possible that you might have instances of the debug drivers still running in the background. Use the task manager or equivalent to kill any tasks called:
- redlinkserv
- arm-none-eabi_gdb*
- crt_emu_*

After doing this, unplug and replug your board and probe back into your PC. Can you then start a debug session?

There are also the standard USB related things...

- Try a different USB cable!
- Try a different USB port. If your host has USB3 and USB2, then try a USB2 port

Note - there are know issues with motherboard USB3 firmware, ensure your host is using the latest driver from the manufacturer. This is not referencing the host OS driver but the motherboard firmware of the USB port

- If using a USB hub, try a direct connection to the host computer. And if using a USB port directly, trying using a powered USB hub.

Hi,

thank you for your reply.

I switch ULINK to CMSIS-DAP:

Next, I try connect redlinkserver to debugger (as your example):

But, in LPCXpresso IDE you still cannot connect to debugger:

"No compatible emulators available.
They may be disconnected, not powered, already in use or not compatible with this target"

It looks as TCP connection to redlink server problem (Tokenizer error).

Any ideas?

btw: about XP: yes, I know about WinXP's end of support. My IT guru prepare a new PC for me....

By the way, NXP no longer supports Windows XP once Microsoft discontinued support. It may work for some time, but we no longer test the product on that operating system and can't guarantee it's operation.

Note the example above does not use the Windows telnet implementation. I think you've already noticed its' operation leaves something to be desired.

The Keil ULINK2 needs to be configured with CMSIS-DAP in order to use it with LPCXpresso. You can configure the ULINK2 through Keil uVision. You didn't mention whether this was done, or if you happen to be changing back and forth between CMSIS-DAP and ULINK2 Pro Cortex Debugger as is the case with Keil uVision 4.70, or earlier.

See http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/ulink2/ulink2_boot_mode.htm

Here's a short example of a Redlink Server debug connection to an LPC1549 Xpresso v2 board using a Keil ULINK2 emulator with CMSIS-DAP. I ran the server from a command shell, but you can do the same thing through the Redlink Server console in the LPCXpresso IDE:


C:\nxp\LPCXpresso_7.6.2_326\lpcxpresso\bin>redlinkserv.exe -commandline
