PE Multilink issue when install and debug with S32

[yuehedeng]

Hi,

   My computer is win7-64bit. When I install s32 V1.0 for power pc, the last step is PE multilink driver installing, and it came up an error pop-up. The msg is shown as below.

Luckily, I still can install the PE multilink driver via computer device manager.

But when I tried to debug my project with S32, it still can't recognize Multilink. Every time I click refresh, then pegdbserver_power_console.exe stops working.

Could anyone give me a hand about this issue?

Hi,

I strongly recommend you to use S32Design Studio for Power Architecture version 1.1. Many bugs are fixed in this version. Could you please try install this version and check, if there is the same problem with PE Micro drivers during the installation?

From your post it seems, there could be some driver conflict. Please try install new version of S32DS and if it does not help, download the drivers directly from PE Micro website and try to install it independently (I am sorry that I cannot provide you URL address, but PE Micro website is down right now).

If any of the points mentioned above will not help you, run gdb server manually. Executable file is placed in S32DS installation folder /Cross_Tolls/powerpc-eabivle-4_9/bin.

Manual start of gdb could provide us more information about issue (in case there will be problem).

Regards,

Martin

Hi Martin, install V1.1 doesn't help. Still fail during PE multilink driver installing when install V1.1...

Hello,

sorry about gdb I asked in the previous post. I gave you incorrect path to gdb server. The utility you run is gdb client, not gdb server. I consulted your issue with my colleague and the question about gdb is not relevant.

So please do the process I wrote you in my last answer and let me know, if it works.

Regards,

Martin

Martin, other computers can install s32 successfully. So I reinstall win7 operation system, and it works. Now I can use s32 and multilink successfully.

Thank you.

Hi,

OK it seems, you are able to run gdb server manually. But it is strange, you are not able to install PE micro drivers. Could you please try to install S32 Design Studio to another computer and write me, if you have the same problem?

As I wrote in my previous post, incorrect drivers installation could be caused by many ways and I am not able to tell if there is something wrong with your operating system or if there is some driver conflict.

If you do not have another device for testing, please use some virtualization tool like VMware, install clear operating  system and try to install Design Studio. This could help us a lot.

Regards,

Martin
