Azure Sphere MT3620 enable development issue

Question

Hi!

I just received the Azure Sphere MT3620 starter kit. I've gone trought all the configurations steps. I've been able to upload my first blinking program and it works! My only problem is that I can't get the module in debug mode. In the configuration steps, after claiming the device, it is ask to enable app-development on the device by entering the following command:

"azsphere device enable-development"

What I get is an error saying: "Failed to install debugging server to device" and "Image package failed to transfer to the device. Check if the image is too large."

Attached you will find a screenshot of this error on the command prompt.

Do you have any ideas?
Tell me if you need more infos.

Thank you in advance!
Charles

Answer 1

I've never seen that issue before. Did you "recover" the device to make sure you're running the latest OS? If not, I would do that first. Note that if you've configured any wifi networks on your device they will be removed by the recover command.

azsphere device recover

<Let the device update the OS and reset>

azsphere device enable-development

Answer 2

Hi everyone,

Please be aware that my issue is solved... or at least it is working now ( I don't have an error message anymore). I don't know what was causing the problem. I have tried the same procedure on three different computers with no avail. Than I tried again on a brand new desktop computer and it worked the first time.
Very strange on my opinion.

Whatever,
Thank you for your support guys!

Hi Brian,

First thank you for the reply. I have already done those steps earlier. I still tried again, but it doesn't work. I also tried to uninstall the Azure Sphere SDK and reinstall it. The file gdbserver.imagepackage is at the right place but somehow it can't be transfert to the device. By the way, I am using the SDK for windows 10.
