Help debugging Nucleo board using official STM32 Cube IDE.

[Ankit]

I am unable to debug a simple blinky program created using the CubeMX software. The board I am using is a Nucleo F103RB board. The IDE seems to be able to flash the MCU but then I get a

The same project debugs fine using the TrueStudio IDE.

Hi Ankit,

I had the same issue with a imported atollic studio project. The reason was that the startup-file was excluded from build (right-click on the folder and select properties, go to the item 'C/C++ Build' and uncheck the box 'Exclude resource from build'. That solved the problem for me.

Hope this helps...

Hi Christian,

I just checked to make sure but the startup file & folder aren't excluded from the build in my case. I have tried importing TrueStudio projects created using the stand-alone version of CubeMX as well as new projects created using the inbuilt CubeMX plugin within the CubeIDE. No joy. I guess I'll have to continue using CubeMX+TrueSTUDIO 9.3 for now until ST fixes this :(
