Hi,
I am trying to debug a Linux application running inside the HPS of an Intel Stratix 10 and have run into a recurring error message.
I am using the DS-5 Community Edition that is downloaded along side the Intel Quartus tools. I have followed the steps in the Rocketboards debugging procedure and receive the above error message at step 8.
Does anyone have a clue what I am doing wrong? The RSE successfully connects to the ARM and can see the files that are there. When I open up the ARM file structure I see the downloaded file there.
Thanks!
Hi
It looks like the license is not set-up correctly - have you installed a license AND selected a toolkit variant in Help > Arm License Manager?
The RSE part doesn't need a license, so that will work OK, but the Debugger needs a valid license to connect to gdbserver.
It might be better for you to use the "DS-5 Intel SoC FPGA Edition" instead, which is specifically customised for the Stratix 10 and supported by Intel - see:developer.arm.com/.../intel-soc-fpga-edition
Another Stratix 10 user has done this successfully recently - see community.arm.com/.../getting-started-with-armv8-a-cortex-a53
If you'd like to pursue with DS-5 Community Edition, then please let us know, exactly, which release you have installed. To see this, launch the Arm DS-5 IDE, open Help > About Arm DS-5, then copy’n’paste the Version and Build text.
Hope this helps
Stephen
I would prefer to use the Community Edition if possible and save myself the licensing fee.

Thanks for the extra info. We're investigating and will get back to you.
I navigated to /root/.ds-5/licenses/ to see if the DS-5 Altera Community Edition.lic file was there and the directory did not exist. I created /root/.ds-5/licenses/ and tried to re-enter the DS-5 Community Edition Activation code but no file was generated. I tried it both with and without sudo but neither worked.
Hi again
I've tried to reproduce your issue, but without any success so far. I installed DS-5 v5.29.2 from developer.arm.com/.../downloadsand used the Activation Code given atdeveloper.arm.com/.../community-editionand was able to connect to a remote gdbserver.In my test, I installed DS-5 and entered the Activation Code as a non-root ordinary user.I'm puzzled why you are seeing in the Diagnostics:ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE in file "/home/my_username/.flexlmrc": "/root/.ds-5/licenses/DS-5 Altera Community Edition.lic:/root/.ds-5/licenses/DS-5 Altera Community Edition.lic"The duplicated paths to the .lic file within one single set of quotes might be confusing things. Did you set the license when logged-in as root or when using sudo?I see just:ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE in file "/home/my_username/.flexlmrc": "/home/my_username/.ds-5/licenses/DS-5 Altera Community Edition.lic"I can see the DS-5 Altera Community Edition.lic file is present in "/home/my_username/.ds-5/licenses/"The file "/home/my_username/.flexlmrc" simply containsARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE=/home/my_username/.ds-5/licenses/DS-5 Altera Community Edition.licI suggest you try re-installing DS-5 v5.29.2 and entering the Activation Code as a non-root ordinary user. Root/sudo privilege is not needed for gdbserver connections.

We tried it and it worked! Thanks!
