  • [SOLVED] j-link not programming in Linux environment

    I'm running a Ubuntu VM and having problems getting the Marvell External Tools to work with my Segger J-Link in Eclipse. I'm trying to program a 88MW300 Wifi module. The External Tools in the SDK are set up to call the flashprog.py script which programs the MCU application, and I keep getting the following error in the Eclipse console. I just updated the firmware in the j-link, and I'm using wmsdk 3.4.6. I'm not sure where to start looking - do these error messages provide any insight? Can I provide any more details that would help?

  • Hi,


    There is a bug that causes Full-Speed-USB J-Links (V9 and older, J-Link Pro V3 and older) to not work correctly with OpenOCD. (We need to look into this, but at the moment, we assume that has to be fixed on OpenOCD side)
    Workaround is to downgrade the J-Link firmware using J-Link 5.12j or older (segger.com/downloads/jlink/Setup_JLink_V512j.zip) by using the "exec invalidatefw" command in J-Link Commander. Although there are known issues, downgrading the J-Link firmware is not recommended and happens at your own risk.

    Do you need to work with OpenOCD, or would the GNU ARM eclipse plugin be an option for you?

  • Hello Forum,

    the issue regarding OpenOCD + J-Link models with Full Speed USB (V9 and older) has been fixed with the firmware "J-Link V9 compiled Sep 1 2016 18:29:50" or later, which is included in V6.00i or higher of the J-Link software & documentation pack.

    Best regards,
