Not able to launch the debugger in freedom studio application

HiFive1 Rev B
1

While bringing up RED V board following are the steps followed:

  1. Selected new freedom SDK project
  2. Selected the example program (hello world)
  3. Target device: HiFive1 Rev B
  4. build and launch config: checked
  5. launch config: j-link

Following are the issue faced:

  1. After building the project, application starts to buffer and the debugger launch window never pops up.

  2. In run configurations option if we try to create a new configuration doing right click, then also the application starts to buffer.

  3. If the program is executed with default launch config, we observe the error message saying
    'launching new_configuration has encountered a problem.

Error in final launch sequence:

Failed to execute MI command:
-exec-run
Error message from debugger back end:
Error creating process
…/workspace/fifive_hifive1_revb_hello/src/debug/hello.elf,(error 193).

Note: I am using the windows PC (64-bit) and Freedom studio 2021 version software.

You may want to try the “freedom-e310-arty” BSP instead of the HiFive1 Rev B selection.

The board used for bring up is RED V which is similar to HiFive1 Rev B. Is it ok if we select a different target?

Are you sure that you haven’t simply got a typo in your launch configuration - “fifive”?
