Posted on February 25, 2018 at 11:43For the past months I've been working with my STM32F722ZE Nucleo board without any issues. But a few days ago debugging suddenly broke. I can still create a session, but when the debugger hits a breakpoint (I assume), I only get this error message (at the end of the log):

While this is happening, the Nucleo connection LED shows both green and orange at the same time (not blinking).
My setup for SYS is 'trace async with SW', and those three pins are unconnected/unused but configured.
What is causing this? Google did not provide an answer.
