debug launch fails: Timed out trying to launch GDBHello,
I am using an S32K566 board with S32 Design Studio 3.6.10 and an S32 Debug Probe.
I followed the tutorial step by step. The project builds successfully, but when i start debugging i get this error.
"Launching anomaly detection" has encountered a problem.
Error in services launch sequence
Timed out trying to launch GDB
I have already tried creating a new debug configuration and checking the GDB paths, but the issue remains
Could you please advise what may cause this error?
Thanks,
Re: debug launch fails: Timed out trying to launch GDBHi,
The error is quite generic and can be caused by several issues. Could you please provide more information to address this?
1. Console log — the full text from the S32DS Console tab (not a screenshot). This can show exactly where the connection times out (probe found? target power? SWD/JTAG connect? reset?).
2. Verify that the S32DS installation is complete, updates and desired extensions installed
3. Hardware - Is it an NXP EVB or a custom board? How is the probe connected — USB or Ethernet?
4. Previously programmed state - Was the MCU previously programmed with anything (especially HSE/security-related firmware, or a bootloader that modifies DAP access)?
Was it ever debugged successfully on this board before?
5. Simple project test — does the same failure occur with a freshly created Hello World / empty project on a clean workspace? This helps isolate whether it's project-specific or a board/probe/environment issue.
6. Debug Configuration screenshot — specifically the Debugger tab, to verify the correct device, interface speed, and connection settings.
