Re-installing LPC-Link

I successfully installed LPCXpresso yesterday, and LPC-Link worked fine.
However Windows was unhappy this morning, and I have re-booted as a previous working configuration.

I un-installed LPCxpresso and am now trying to re-install it.

Everything is fine until the loading of the LPC-Link drivers on the first debug session. It seems to copy all the relevant files over. Then fails with:

LPC-Link Debug Probe v1.1

"An error occurred during the installation of the device
The wait operation timed out".

I have also tried the command line DFUAPP.exe with the same results.

David.

Ok, in C:\WINDOWS\inf\certclas.inf, is there an entry such as:

{36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000} ; Universal Serial Bus controllers

It's all getting too hard :confused:

Quote:

2. In the ' \WINDOWS\INF' directory, search for "Philips" and be certain any .inf file(s) found has the string "VID_0471&PID_0000". Delete these, and any associated .pnf files. In your case, the files oem126.inf/oem126.pdf are likely present.

the directory has lower case \inf, no files called "Philips" or oem126.inf/oem126.pdf (pnf??)

I renamed ALL .inf and .pnf files created yesterday to see if new ones would be created. I also renamed the files in the DFU directory to match the case of the .cat files (some were all in lower case but it should not matter). Disabled virus scanner just in case. Still no good.

Renamed the setupapi.log to old so that I could see what happened with today's install and among other things I see

Quote:

#I087 Driver node not trusted, rank changed from 0x00000001 to 0x00008001.
#E360 An unsigned or incorrectly signed file "c:\nxp\lpcxpresso_3.5\drivers\dfu\MassDfu.cat" for driver "USB Device with DFU Capabilities" will be installed (Policy=Ignore). Error 0x800b0110: The certificate is not valid for the requested usage.
#E122 Device install failed. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.
#E157 Default installer failed. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.

so it seem that there are some issues somewhere.

I think I give up for now, maybe my local friendly NXP FAE can sort this out.

Looking at your setupapi log that you sent, it appears the DFU device installation may be a problem. If it were me, I'd try the following. I've never encountered a problem doing this on Windows XP, but it's sort of a last resort.

1. Disconnect the USB cable from your LPCXpresso, and leave it unpowered.
2. In the ' \WINDOWS\INF' directory, search for "Philips" and be certain any .inf file(s) found has the string "VID_0471&PID_0000". Delete these, and any associated .pnf files. In your case, the files oem126.inf/oem126.pdf are likely present.
3. Plug the USB cable back into your LPCXpresso, and power it on. You should be be prompted that a new device is found. You'll want to handle the installation yourself, so when prompted, navigate to the LPCXpresso "<install>\Drivers\DFU" directory.

Once the DFU device driver has installed, the LPCXpresso IDE should be able to use it's scripts to DFU the LPC-Link software probe onto the LPC-Link.

I have unistalled and reinstalled the IDE. The boxes to install the driver were both ticked. The same thing happens, as soon as I try to debug and plug the board in windows tries to reinstall the drivers and it fails saying it cannot find the files and it keeps on going forever.

PLease zip up and post the file c:\windows\setupapi.log

This is a windows log file that records all driver installation messages.

Interesting, it must be failing. I get an ever ending Windows prompts to install the drivers when I plug in the board, it fails installation, says it can't find the files, rinse and repeat for ever.[/SIZE]

Some familiar "faces" here.:)

I cannot install lpc-link at all. It keeps on saying that it cannot find the required files.

I have tried both the DFU and LPC-Link driver directories.

Win XP PRO SP3 2.8GHz and 3GB ram

Sorry, you haven't provided us enough information in order to help you, including the LPCXpresso IDE version you've installed. The LPCXpresso installation installs the required drivers. Your system must provide access to the cscript.exe utility for our installation scripts. On Windows XP, this is utility is located in the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory. Please post the exact error text you see to at least provide some idea of the failure mode.

Regards,

CodeRedSupport

Perhaps there was an error during the driver installation?

Could you zip and post \windows\setupapi.log - this contains detailed information on the installation of drivers by Windows.

Thanks

Thankyou very much.

It seems to connect in this mode!

The behaviour is not quite the same as in my original installation.

David.

Hi,

Can you try:
disconnect the board
start LPCXpresso
open Window->Preferences
In the left-hand column, expand LPCXpresso and click on Debug
Now, in the Right hand column, ensure "Initialise LPC-Link as Hid" is checked
press OK
connect your board
start a debug session

Thanks

Hi,

The problem could be that your machine is slow to load the drivers and so LPCXpresso times out waiting for the drivers to appear. It is not clear from your description at what stage the error occurs. If it is during the "initialise LPC-Link" stage, you get a choice of continue to wait or to display the log. Can you try the continue, and if it still failes, get the log and post it.

Other possible causes include:
- is the cable fully inserted into the PC and LPC-Link?
- if you are connecting via a USB hub, try connecting directly to the PC instead.

Also, which version of Windows are you running?

The system prompts for "New Hardware etc" when I start the first "debug Blinky" session.
Yes. I get prompts for Unsigned drivers,   and Waits from the debugger.    Which I respond to immediately.   If the "New Hardware" gets launched via DFUAPP,   then I only get the Unsigned Driver prompt.    But it still fails in the same way.

The USB is connected directly to the PC,   which is running Windows XP SP2.   It runs at a respectable speed.

The installation worked fine yesterday.   And I have un-installed / re-installed about 4 times this morning.   And rebooted the PC too.
