X-CUBE-AI: "ValueError: Path for entry objcopy_binary_path does not exist" when validating.

[cxf]

hi  , i want to use STM32Mx to validate  my model(.onnx) on target STM32N6570-DK board ,now STM32MX is 6.15.0 and Toolchain/IDE select STM32CUBEIDE,when i connect board to PC,and click the validate on target,it show me error like this:

 File "C:\Users\lenovo\STM32Cube\Repository\Packs\STMicroelectronics\X-CUBE-AI\10.1.0\scripts\N6_scripts\n6_utils_pkg\config_reader.py", line 100, in sanitize_config 
    check_path_entry_ok(self.data, k)

    raise ValueError(f"Path for entry {key} does not exist: {rv}")

please help me to slove this problem ,thanks!

Hello @cxf 

Could you please add your .ioc file to check the issue?

KR,

It's telling you that it can't find arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe:

ValueError: Path for entry objcopy_binary_path does not exist: 
C:/Users/foobar/TOOLS/gcc-arm-none-eabi/12.2 rel1/bin/arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe 
Build error

So does that path actually exist on your PC?

Do you have access rights to it?

[Andrew Neil]

Would a failure to find arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe be related to the .ioc file?

Sounds more like an installation/configuration problem with the tools?

Hello @cxf,

As @Andrew Neil pointed out, this error seems to be because of a bad configuration of X Cube AI. 

By default, the path to necessary tools are found automatically, but for some reason, it did not work for you.

Could you go to the X Cube AI repository folder: 

C:\Users\lenovo\STM32Cube\Repository\Packs\STMicroelectronics\X-CUBE-AI\10.1.0\scripts\N6_scripts\

And manually set the paths in config.json.

Here is what mine looks like for reference:

{
    "gdb_server_path": "C:/ST/STM32CubeIDE_1.18.1/STM32CubeIDE/plugins/com.st.stm32cube.ide.mcu.externaltools.stlink-gdb-server.win32_2.2.100.202501151542/tools/bin",

}

(iar is not set as I don't use it)

Have a good day,
