STlink can't connect to device!!! [stm32f103c8t6 bluepill]

[eggsacc]

I recently got another bluepill board (stm32f103c8t6) to replace the old board, and I could not connect to it using stlink. Using OpenOCD:

Does anyone know what's wrong with the board?? The stlink device is detected properly, but it cannot verify the st device.

Hello and welcome to the community.

See the reply here regarding the usage of the blue pill boards.

Wait, i need  to consult my blue crystal ball first ...

What connect mode you set ?  try: debug configuration -> connect mode ...software reset.

cpu is recognized!  < Cortex-M3 r2p0 processor detected > + < device id = 0x10010414 >
