STM32CubeIDE Throws Error When I Try to Open The CubeMX embedded in the IDE

[Garnett.Robert]

Hi

When I try to open the .ioc file associated with my project from within the STM32CubeIDE, I get the following error:

Invalid Input: 'FreeRTOS_Test_001.ioc' file content is not supported.
 
This file has been generated with STM32CubeMX version '6.4.0'.Your current STM32CubeMX version is '6.3.0'.
Please check for update: Help > Check for Updates

CubeIDE is obviously pointing to an older version than the version CubeMX version (6.4) that I opened from my desktop to create the project in the first place.

How can I fix this?

Best regards

What is your CubeIDE version? Latest is v1.8.0.

Ahh! Good question! My IDE is 1.7.

I have tried to update the IDE from within the IDE, Help->Check for updates, but it comes back "No Updates Found"

What do I have to do to update my STM32CubeIDE to the latest? Uninstall - download and then install the updated one?

Regards

Sometimes connectivity is down. In the meantime, just use the external CubeMX.

I don't think it is connectivity. I run updates from CubeIDE regularly. At least once per day.

In any event I downloaded 1.8 and have got it working.

Could you try in your CubeIDE 1.7.0 installation to do this:

Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available software sites

Try to Reload, the marked three update sites:

Any error message?
