armdbg creating log files in /tmp/ armdbg_support_log_files

Amir Soutehkeshan

Hi,

I am using armdbg in Unix environment  to debug the hardware in the shell scripts. I noticed that armdbg creates log files in /tmp/armdbg_support_log_files even if the log_file is explicitly defined for it. The problem is that if there are multiple users sharing the environment the created folder has the first user as the owner and second user can not run the tool and gets the following error:

[date,time] main ERROR FileManager (/tmp/armdbg_support_log_files/armdbg_support_log_file_<date,time>.log) java.io.FileNotFoundException: /tmp/armdbg_support_log_files/armdbg_support_log_file_<date,time>.log (Permission denied) java.io.FileNotFoundException: /tmp/armdbg_support_log_files/armdbg_support_log_file_<date,time>.log (Permission denied)

Is there any way to change the log files destination location?

    My pleasure.

    The log that is attached in my initial post is the full log that is being printed in the shell.

    If it helps:

    armdbg --version
    Arm Debugger [6.1.2+10]
    Copyright (C) 2008-2024 Arm Limited (or its affiliates). All rights reserved.

    The command I am using:

    armdbg --cdb-root <my_custom_cdb_location>/ExtensionDB/ --cdb-entry "<My_Hardware_Platform>::Bare Metal Debug::Bare Metal Debug::Cortex-M33_0::DSTREAM-ST" --cdb-entry-param Connection="TCP:<DSTREAM_IP>" --cdb-entry-param dtsl_options_file=my.dtslprops --script=my_debug_script.ds --log_file=/home/amir/debug_log.txt --log_config=info

    Also there multiple environment variables that I am defining that are being used as paths inside the debug scirpt.

    Hope this helps.
