MCUXpresso SDK 2.6.1 Problem Flashing Eval Boards

[nbgatgi]

I have been using MCUXpresso 10.3 and recently moved to 11.0.  Note that the problem explained below appears to be specific to the SDK version 2.6.1 and NOT to the version of MCUXpresso or particular eval board.

The type of eval board I've seen the problem with are for the RT1064 (MIMXRT1064-EVK).  Also, I have more than one of the RT1064 boards and the problem is consistent.  The SDK versions tested for the RT1064 are 2.4.1 and 2.6.1.  Version 2.5 was not released by NXP for the RT1064.

 I have attached both versions of the SDK that I have been using.

NOTE:  The flashing problem does not exist when creating example code projects.  It only occurs when creating a "new project" with the new project wizard.

With out making any changes to the default selections as shown below, the project will be created and will compile without issue.

However, when I attempt to flash the code into the eval board by selecting debug I receive two error messages that are nearly identical.

Here is what shows up in the console tab:

If I delete the SDK, reinstall version 2.4.1 and repeat the above process, the board flashes as expected.  Returning again to 2.6.1 and the problem returns.

I have repeated this sequence in MCUXpresso 10.3 and 11.

Since 2.4.1 is working, I'm not completely stuck, but for new work I prefer to work with the latest SDK.

Is there a work-around to address this problem?

Hi Nick Guzzardo

I can confirm this issue on my side. The problem is related to the flash drivers, by default, the project that you create doesn't select any flash driver:

If you add it manually, the project works as expected:

Have a great day,
