13 years agoBAD_JTAG_CHAIN again
Dear All,
running eclipse-nios2 I try to debug an application. Using ethernetblaster. When I open the Debug Configurations and fill all what is needed, I cannot find the target. Instead it says '[Target connection]: System Console: Unable to scan chain: BAD_JTAG_CHAIN' Anyone knows where the problem lies? It needs to be said, that from: a) quartus programmer it works out of the box b) signal tap from quartus works out of the box c) all my command line tools, including nios-terminal work out of the box. The only issue is with eclipse when I try to debug or run it.... I have imported the BSP and application into eclipse as normally I'm using command line driven compilation and testing, but this time I need to dig into debugging as well.... any help kindly appreciated .d. as well, all my command line tools always specify 'cable', i.e. to which cable the tool should be attached if I issue jtagconfig, I get the information correctly (i'm using the second device): belohrad@beesknees:~/Downloads$ /opt/altera-current/nios2eds/nios2_command_shell.sh ------------------------------------------------ Altera Nios2 Command Shell [GCC 4] Version 12.0sp2, Build 263 ------------------------------------------------ belohrad@beesknees:~/Downloads$ jtag jtagconfig jtagd belohrad@beesknees:~/Downloads$ jtagconfig 1) EthernetBlasterII on aceb055e [EthernetBlasterII] Unable to read device chain (JTAG chain broken) 2) EthernetBlasterII on didtethblaster04 [EthernetBlasterII] 020F70DD EP3C120/EP4CE115
