STM32N6570-DK Image classification Flashing error

[Jayasree1414]

Iam getting this error continuously while flashing. I have taken custom dataset and trained. Training is done. Deployment is done but stm32cubeide is not generating bin. I have set the board to dev mode and connected the CN6.

"make -j6 all" terminated with exit code 2. Build might be incomplete.

14:02:56 Build Failed. 3 errors, 5 warnings. (took 29s.939ms)

Hello @Jayasree1414,

Sorry for the late answer. The post just got moved to this topic.

This error indicates that something went wrong when modifying the CubeIDE project and it did not compile, which cause the bin file to not exist. Having a model too big could be a cause.

Error: File does not exist: STM32N6570-DK_GettingStarted_ImageClassification_signed.bin
Board programming failed: "Error: File does not exist: STM32N6570-DK_GettingStarted_ImageClassification_signed.bin"

Board programming failed: "Error: File does not exist: STM32N6570-DK_GettingStarted_ImageClassification_signed.bin"

Can you go to the model zoo folder and open the cubeIDE project in stm32ai-modelzoo-services\application_code\image_classification\STM32N6\Application\STM32N6570-DK.

Try to compile it and look at the error.

Have a good day,

Julian
