I USE MY ACTIVATE CODE FROM MY email from NXP,BUT ONLINE activation error!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any body know why???

[wojinandawei]

[wojinandawei]

I use one way that has been  suggested in other sections (use offline )

[stanish]

Hello Wei,

Thanks for your report. It's indeed recommended to use offline activation instead of online if there is any issue with online activation.

There are several circumstances that can cause the online activation attempt fails - e.g. firewall/antivirus setup, company network setup, network lags...

According to our records the offline activation transaction was successful so I assume you are now up and running.

regards,

Stan

Hi,

You don't have to extract the files from archive.

Please see this release announcement for the update - it contains installation instructions.

Hope it helps.

Sumit,

You are right, unfortunately SDK is currently not supported by Linux version of S32 Design Studio.

This issue has been already escalated to the marketing team and there is pending discussion about adding SDK support into linux version of the S32 Design Studio.

I'd not expect it will happens in a near future (this year). 

Stan

Thanks Stan, any reason why we couldn't copy over and use the SDK source files from Linux? We are interested in the startup files and peripheral drivers.

Hi, 

you can update your installation by Install New Software option. I'm not sure if you have only WIN XP look or real Windows XP - if Real Win XP, please be aware that Windows XP is not supported by S32DS and you may be facing some issues.
