Hi all

It is out of desperation that I turn to the forum, I`ve read all I could find on the WEB regarding my issue, and after 2 weeks still no results: 1- I use the SMT32F4-DISCOVERY board which has the ST-LINK V2 built in 2- I want to use the GNU route as this is the cheapest option, but as always the most frustrating 3- I have all the GNU tools and ECLIPSE functioning and compiling, linking etc. 4- I can invoke the debug tools but..... this is the problem: I use the Atollic TrueSTUDIO gdbserver for ST-Link.  Version 1.6.0  Pro Copyright 2010-2012... This is supposed to connect with the GDB tools that I use with ECLIPSE but to no avail. I have tried CODESOURCERY, YAGARTO.. no matter what the error is always the same: Starting server with the following options:         Persistant Mode            : Enabled         LogFile Name               : debug_log.txt         Logging Level              : 31         Listen Port Number         : 61234         Status Refresh Delay       : 15s         Verbose Mode               : Disabled         SWD Debug                  : Enabled Connecting to the ST-Link Debugger... OK Waiting for debugger connection... !!! At this point the server is running !!!! Then as soon as you open the GDB tools to debug it exits with this message:

Connecting to the ST-Link Debugger... OK

Waiting for debugger connection...

Error while waiting for debugger connection.

Shutting down... Debugger connection lost. Shutting down... Everything seems to point to the server as I have tried many tools and they all do the same... Any solutions Thanks Ben #stm32f4-gnu

I remember I went to the same issue (on Windows 7) and it was only because of permission. Do you have any antivirus or firewall running? Try to turn off all of those thing for a while and start the debugger.
