Blue Pill - Error: Target not found

[sambanerjee]

I'm using the stm32 board (STM32F103C8T6) the blue pill for testing. I'm just flashing a blinking led code but getting an error Target not found: No stm board found and also getting ST-Link not found after that. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue. - Attaching the screenshots for your reference.

Note that the Blue Pill is not an ST product, and likely contains a fake STM32.

Are you using a genuine ST-Link?

This happens when you have specified a specific ST-Link (by serial number) in your debug setup, and that particular ST-Link is not found.

Uncheck that box.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your reply. As you mentioned, I unchecked that box and tried again. Now I'm getting an error as Target no device found.

Hi,

so at first get CubeProgrammer, and connect then with the blue pill.

Show screen...what its telling.

Then we go on, to get it working.
