S32 Design Studio v3.6.1 crashes

[pcentauri92]

Hi NXP Community,

I am working with a fresh install of S32 Design studio v3.6.1 and created a project for S32G399A. I have also intsalled the RTD package using the "Install new Software option". When I try to access the IVT tools, the design studio crashes abruptly and it happens every time I do that. I have tried installing a previous release from March 31, 2025 which also has the same problem.

I am attaching the error log generated by the studio here.

My OS info:
Linux precision-3591 6.8.0-59-generic #61~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Apr 15 17:03:15 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Java version:
openjdk 21.0.7 2025-04-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu122.04)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0.7+6-Ubuntu-0ubuntu122.04, mixed mode, sharing)

Could you please help me out with a fix for this issue? Let me know if you need any other information from my end.

Thanks.

Hello, @pcentauri92 

Thanks for you reply.

I have checked the log you provided, it may caused by the incompatible version of JAVA, from the release notes, Java17 is recommended.

However, with further checking on the issue, I suggest not using S32DS under Linux, it is because currently, there are issues existed on supporting RTD on Ubuntu host. As a result, make the installation issue fixed would not help on further use of RTD. I suggest installing the S32DS3.6.1 on a Windows Host.

Sorry for your inconvenience.

Hello, @pcentauri92 

Thanks for the post.

From the release notes of S32DS3.6.1, the following OS are supported for S32DS3.6.1, I suggest trying installing it on the OS supported for another trial.

Hi @chenyin_h ,

I have updated my OS to the latest version which is compatible with S32 Design studio v3.6.1 and the issue still exists as you can see below.

hi @pcentauri92 . Where you able to solve this issue?

Question: Are you using Wayland or X11 in your Ubuntu setup?

[pcentauri92]

Hi @daniel_ll ,
My distribution comes with X11 by default and I have been able to use the design studio by setting the GDK_BACKEND environment variable.

export GDK_BACKEND=x11

However, fthe issu still exists without the use of that variable.  My distribution version is as shown below

PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION_ID="24.04"
VERSION="24.04.2 LTS (Noble Numbat)"
VERSION_CODENAME=noble
ID=ubuntu

Has a fix been released for this in the newer version of ubuntu (25.10) ?
