Error with CMake in New Version 6.15.0

Mocozzz

Today, while using the CubeMX product, I upgraded to version 6.15.0 (previously 6.14.1). After upgrade, the CMake step when generating project code failed. Even when generating an empty project, CMake still did not succeed. I also tried previously working projects that had been successfully flashed before, but they also failed during the CMake step.
The following error message was displayed: 

CMake Error at D:/Program Files/JetBrains/CLion/bin/cmake/win/x64/share/cmake-3.31/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:67 (message):
  The C compiler

    "C:/Program Files/GNU-Arm-Toolchain-eabi/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe"

  is not able to compile a simple test program.

  It fails with the following output:

show that your CMake setup tries to compile a Windows executable using the arm-none-eabi toolchain which cannot work. In short, your installation is broken. Try to clean-up and re-start from scratch. Maybe by using the tools from STM32CubeCLT - Toolset for third-party integrated development environment (IDE) providers, allowing the use of STMicroelectronics proprietary tools within their own IDE frameworks - STMicroelectronics.

Thanks, I'll clean it and try again!

The method you suggested did not work. I have reinstalled all the software, but the error report remains the same:

Perhaps downgrading to version 6.14.1 might solve the issue.

Now I have no choice but to come back to CubeMX version 6.14.1, which is currently the only solution. I hope ST engineers can fix the issue "CubeMX 6.15.0 fails to load using CMake" as soon as possible. I look forward to experiencing the new features at the earliest opportunity.

Hello @Mocozzz 

I'm currently investigating this .

I will get back to you as soon as possible.
