I've installed IDE 5.1.2 and get this error when I try to debug:

Error while launching command: gdb --version

I've not had a problem with the previous versions.

I now get:

An internal error occurred during: "Launching blinky".
java.lang.NullPointerException

after restoring defaults in Debug Configurations.

When I do a release build and try to run the binary I get:

Error starting process.
Cannot run program "C:\Users\Leon\Documents\LPCXpresso_5.0.14_1109\blinky\Debug\blinky.axf": Launching failed

I had imported from the 5.10 project directory into 5.12. It did hard fault on me so I went back to 5.10 verify the code ran. It did. So I just copied the .s file into the 5.12 project and now it runs. Seems like a hiccup that is gone.

It is faster. The register window is expanded. Thanks!

Now to see how memory pane ascii entry is doing.

Try deleting and recreating the debug configuration. CodeRed recommend doing this when upgrading

I get the problems with the Debug button in the Quickstart panel.

I was able to debug a couple of other examples (ADC and PWM). I only seem to get those problems with the Blinky example, which is very strange.

Deleting the Blinky Launch Configuration fixed the problem.

I bet you created your own debug configuration, rather than pressing the debug button in the QuickStart panel. If you create your own you need to use c/c++ mcu application and NOT c/c++ application
