STM32F407 Discovery

When you installed the toolchain, did you add the path as an environmental variable?

Way out of my league here, but my guess is that there is something on your computer that interferes with gdbserver setting up a remote connection to the target. There is a "GDBserverParam.ini" file in the "..CoIDE\bin" folder. Maybe try changing the port number at the bottom. Maybe something (firewall?) blocks that particular port? (see the footnote in the GDB/GDBserver documentation)

Edit: Those appear to be the same settings as in the project configuration itself, so maybe it's easier to just change them there.

And the plot thickens....

my STM32F051 board arrived today. That completely worked and was just fine... however this bored still doesn't work...

The debug on the new board works, but it doesn't on the original STM32F407 board.

How odd! Maybe try using the STLink section of the STM32F0 board for the STM32F4 processor and see if that makes a difference? If so, the STLink section of your STM32F4 might be messed up though the fact you could detect the processor with the STLink utility is quite odd. I'm sorry I can't be much more helpful!

I'm afraid that hasn't made any difference... Really not sure what to do now. I might buy another STM32F4 board, they arn't that expensive.

What's the chance of 3 boards not working?

I think the issue isn't with the boards.

[CM800]

There arn't 3 boards not working... I don't think you have read the thread correctly.


I have 2 STM boards, one is an STM32F407.... the other an STM32F051

The 407 does not work however the 051 does work. I'm trying to work out what is wrong with the 407. I believe it may have been static'd to death as I have had it laying about for a long time.
