SPI TRANSMIT ON STM32

I am using a custom made STM32F302RE board.

I have configured my SPI as follows:

hspi2.Instance = SPI2; 
hspi2.Init.Mode = SPI_MODE_MASTER; 
hspi2.Init.Direction = SPI_DIRECTION_2LINES; 
hspi2.Init.DataSize = SPI_DATASIZE_8BIT; 
hspi2.Init.CLKPolarity = SPI_POLARITY_HIGH; 
hspi2.Init.CLKPhase = SPI_PHASE_2EDGE; 
hspi2.Init.NSS = SPI_NSS_HARD_OUTPUT; 
hspi2.Init.BaudRatePrescaler = SPI_BAUDRATEPRESCALER_2; 
//hspi2.Init.BaudRatePrescaler = SPI_BAUDRATEPRESCALER_4; 
hspi2.Init.FirstBit = SPI_FIRSTBIT_MSB; 
hspi2.Init.TIMode = SPI_TIMODE_DISABLED; 
hspi2.Init.CRCCalculation = SPI_CRCCALCULATION_DISABLED; 
hspi2.Init.NSSPMode = SPI_NSS_PULSE_DISABLED; 
HAL_SPI_Init(&hspi2);

I want to send a message using SPI. As I am sending a data that is several bytes long, I wrote it like this:

static void WriteCommand( 
const unsigned char *pucBuffer, 
unsigned long ulCount) 
{ 
SPI_HandleTypeDef hspi2; 
// Return if SSI port is not ready. 
if (hspi2.State != HAL_SPI_STATE_READY) 
{ 
return; 
} 
// Wait until the SSI is not busy, meaning that all previous data has 
// been transmitted. 
while (hspi2.State == HAL_SPI_STATE_BUSY) 
{ 
} 
// Clear the command/control bit to enable command mode. 
HAL_GPIO_WritePin (DISPLAY_CTRL_PORT, DISPLAY_DC_PIN, GPIO_PIN_RESET); 
// Loop while there are more bytes left to be transferred. 
while( ulCount != 0 ) 
{ 
hspi2.Instance = SPI2; 
hspi2.TxXferCount = ulCount; 
hspi2.pTxBuffPtr = (uint8_t *)&pucBuffer; 
// Write the next byte to the controller. 
HAL_SPI_Transmit (&hspi2, (uint8_t *)&pucBuffer, ulCount, SPI_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT); 
*pucBuffer++; 
// Decrement the BYTE counter. 
ulCount--; 
} 
hspi2.State = HAL_SPI_STATE_READY; 
}

*pucBuffer represents the tx buffer and ulcount represents number of bytes. However, I am not able to transmit the data successfully. Any suggestions??

How is your chip select wired? Have you seen the signals on an oscilloscope ?
