There are 2 errors which produce the FNP error 0 message for which we have identified solutions:   1) That activation request yields no right to a license If you receive the following error message following an attempt to activate S32 Design Studio, this is a known issue and we have a solution.     This issue is due to a recent event. On October 1st, 2019, Flexera made this change. Since NXP uses Flexera for product activations, we were affected.   The solution to the issue is to enable support for TLS 1.2 within your Internet Properties.   2) com.acresso.activation.handler.ServerException If you receive the following error message following an attempt to activate S32 Design Studio, this is a known issue and we have a solution. This issue is known to occur on older releases of S32 Design Studio.     The version of FlexNet Publisher (FNP) used to activate the S32 Design Studio on your PC has an issue on some users machines. While we don't fully understand what change is happening to cause this issue, we have determined that an update to the version of FNP will resolve it. We have incorporated a newer version in the 3.5 release of S32 Design Studio.   Attached is a package of files (Activation.7z) which will allow you to update the version of FNP on your machine.   Enter the following command replacing the paths as noted. It should be possible to execute from CMD window located at any path. Make sure to use the ‘/’ instead of ‘\’ and if you have any paths with spaces, then enclose the full path with “.   For 64-bit OS: C:/NXP/S32DS.3.5/jre/bin/java  -Djava.library.path="{path to where you extracted the activation.zip}/Activation/cll/x64"  -jar "{path to where you extracted the activation.zip}/Activation/license.jar" activateUI   For 32-bit OS: C:/NXP/S32DS.3.5/jre/bin/java -Djava.library.path="{path to where you extracted the activation.zip}/Activation/cll/i86" -jar "{path to where you extracted the activation.zip}/Activation/license.jar" activateUI   If you have no existing S32DS installation from which to use Java, then please use the attached package (CLL_FNP.11.18.0.2.zip) and follow the instructions in the included .txt file. This package only works on Windows OS 64-bit.

S32 Design Studio (S32DS) supports IAR Eclipse plug-in that enables users to build and debug a S32DS project with IAR toolchain for ARM. This document describes how to install this plugin and how to enable IAR in the new project wizard. Current version of S32DS 3.4 supports IAR compilers v9.x. After the IAR eclipse plugin installation is finished you should be able to create, build and debug a new S32DS project (including SDKs) using IAR compiler/debugger interface directly under S32DS Eclipse environment.   Installation instructions First of all make sure you have IAR Embedded Workbench installed with a valid license from IAR. Now let's proceed to eclipse plug-in installation. 1. Install IAR Plugin manager  Go to menu "Help" -> "Install New Software"         Click on "Add..." button to add a new IAR repository located here: http://eclipse-update.iar.com/plugin-manager/1.0                   Tick "I Accept the terms of the license agreement" and click "Finish" to accept unsigned content software Finally you proceed to the installation. When the plugin is installed you will be asked to restart S32DS Again, go to menu "Help" -> "Install New Software" and  click on "Add..." button to add a new IAR repository located here: http://eclipse-update.iar.com/arm/9.10/                   Tick "I Accept the terms of the license agreement" and click "Finish" to accept unsigned content software Finally you proceed to the installation. When the plugin is installed you will be asked to restart S32DS Anytime you create a new workspace you will be asked to enter path to IAR Embedded Workbench IDE. Go to menu "Window" -> "Preferences", click on "IAR Embedded Workbench" menu, select “IAR Toolchain for Arm – (9.x)” in the “Installed IAR Toolchains”, and then input the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE installation path.            2. Configure IAR plugins in IAR Embedded Workbench plugin manager Start the IAR plugin manager (Menu "Help" -> "IAR Embedded Workbench plugin manager")          Select the ARM version (9.10-) and click "Install" button.           Select all the IAR components displayed and proceed to installation by clicking "Next" button.   3. New IAR project in the project wizard You can now create a new project in S32DS and select IAR toolchain for ARM instead of default GCC compiler.          There should appear a new item it the Debugger selection - "IAR plugin Debugger". Please choose this option if you intend to debug using IAR supported probes (e.g. I-jet)          IAR specific panels and settings are now displayed in the project properties for a new S32DS project with the IAR options enabled (see below).          There is a new category "IAR C-SPY Application" in the debug configurations panel that contains all the debug configurations for projects with IAR debug plugin option selected.          The Debugger perspective now offers several IAR specific Views and features.   Enjoy building and debugging with IAR Eclipse plug-in in S32DS!
