STM32cubeIDE generated project does not run but the same project generated with STMcubeMX works?

[xrisve]

I am new to STM32 and it's tools so please excuse my ignorance. I have both STM32cubeIDE V1.3.1 and STMcubeMX V5.6.0 loaded. When I generate a 'simple' project for the STM32F103C8 it does not run correctly if the IDE was used to generate the initial project. If I generate the initial project with STM32cubeMX I can then compile it with the STM32cudeIDE and it works as expected. I am at a loss to understand why --- any advice would be appreciated

You're going to have to explain "does not run correctly" better. You're generating it from STM32CubeMX ran within the STM32CubeIDE, yes?

Works like a charm on my side. 5 mouse clicks required on my side to get a compile success on such target device.

1) Open File > New > STM32Project wizard

2) Select your device

3) Add a project name keeping default settings

4) Press Finish button

5) Compile

Thank you for your relies. I need to be clearer on this.

I have STM32cubeMX v1.3.1 installed as a stand alone program. I can create a new project and based on the STM32F103C8 and then save it. I then can import it to STM32cubeIDE v5.6.0 program and add my code in main.c. I then can compile it successfully and load it on to the chip. The chip executes the program and blinks an led and outputs ADC data every second via USART1---> all is good.

BUT

If I use the STM32cubeIDE to generate the new project ,from scratch, in exactly the same way as I did with the cubeMX then the program still compiles ok and loads on to the chip --->but the program does not run on the chip

The main.c files are identical in both the cubeMX generated project and the cubeIDE generated project and I have not modified any other files.

It is a simple project where the ADC is doing conversions continuously and the DMA is always moving the data from the ADC to a buf[8]. I then have a 1 second delay in the main loop which blinks an led and outputs the contents of buf to the serial port (via DMA).

I have added the code below

?? sounds weird ... no clue here. Any chance to zip and share your both projects ?
