CubeIDE 1.16.1 arm-none-eabi-gdb-version Error

Uloff.4 · ‎2024-10-01

I am using CubeIDE version 1.16.1 to program and flash a STM32F433 MCU.
I am using a SEGGER J-Link flasher.
When I try to run the application I get the following error:

I have tried to manually set the workspace toolchain to local in the toolchain manager.
When I open the toolchain manager, I get an error that it has failed to fetch the toolchain list, in addition to four repositories that it cannot read:

Ignoring the message and setting the local toolchain as it follows

I get the same error when running the code on the MCU:

What should I try to do to fix the error?

Hi,
Could you understand anything from my log?
I also wanted to ask if you could give me all the URLs I need to allow the STM32 Cube IDE to run properly?

Thanks for your help.

I had the same problem. I had to reinstall the ide. My guess is another update coming soon.

I just had the error, too. Despite compiling working just fine, when going to debugging, with a previously working, and unchanged (according to git) debug configuration, the thing claims, "arm-none-eabi-gdb --version" to not work.

The only thing that helped was to close the IDE, delete the ".metadata" (might be hidden on your system depending on explorer settings, if on Windows) folder, restart the IDE, and the you have to re-import the project(s) in the workspace.
Via menu: File -> Import... -> General/Existing Projects into Workspace.
Select the proper root directory, and it will serch through the folder and list the projects it finds. Check the boxes of those you want to import.
Then, also with the File -> Import menu, this time, the "Run/Debug" folder -> "Launch Configurations", you'll have to import your debug configurations again.
I recommend keeping all those in a subfolder in your workspace or project folder.

Then, I also had to open the toolchain manager and "add local" the toolchain I was using, giving it the proper name handle (like "GCC13.3" or so) which your project is set up to use...

Therafter, building again and debugging worked.
I have no idea what put the IDE data that is in .metadata in this weird state... but this happens sometimes.
