STM32Cube programmer V2.8.0 issue with Ubuntu 20.04

[Mahendra Sondagar]

Hey.. there

I hope all are doing well

I have just upgraded my Ubuntu desktop version from 18.0 to 20.04

Right now, I'm playing with STM32MP1 and that's how to flash the new image i have downloaded the STM32Cube programmer Linux version 2.8.0

After successfully downloading when i try to run the programmer from the search bar then it's unable to run

When i try to run from the command line then, at the same time I'm getting following JRE errors

Can any one leads me the right solution?

All suggestions and comments welcome 🙂

Many Thanks

Hi @Mahendra Sondagar​ ,

The error is not related to the Ubuntu version, but the way you launch the STM32CubeProgrammer.

You have to run STM32CubeProgrammer and not the launcher.

If you edit the file STM32CubeProgrammer, you can see that this is a script that set environment variable, then runs correctly the launcher.

In the wiki, a page explains how to run the GUI, part 1.1.1.1.2.6 Populate the SDCard of https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/index.php?title=Getting_started/STM32MP1_boards/STM32MP157x-DK2/Let%27s_start/Populate_the_target_and_boot_the_image

Hi.. @Kevin HUBER​ 

Thanks for you feedback

Yes, i also followed the STM32MP1 Wiki page that you have mentioned in to above URL

At that time, after installing the programmer, when i try to open the programmer from my installed software search menu , it was not opening!

Hello,

Ok I'm sorry I was not clear enough. I understand your issue, please can you use a console and go inside your folder: /home/mahendra/STMicroelectronics/STM32Cube/STM32CubeProgrammer/bin

cd /home/mahendra/STMicroelectronics/STM32Cube/STM32CubeProgrammer/bin

Then run the binary STM32CubeProgrammer:

 ./STM32CubeProgrammer &

Normally the GUI appears.

Please tell me if this way doesn't work too.

Regards,

Kévin
