Re: Problem: Setting up JTAG debugger for ESP32

However, the gdbinit file in home\khoil has exact content as the one in D:\esp32\workspace\scan. So even if I remove the one in "khoil" folder, it probably wont fix the problem with gdb connection, right?

Thanks,

Try removing the one in home directory, and rename the one in project directory from .gdbinit to gdbinit (remove leading dot so the file is not automatically loaded).
Then run xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb build/yourproject.elf -x gdbinit (ELF file before the gdbinit).

Hi esp_igrr,

So it is great that I am able to make the gdb works in the terminal. However, I followed the instruction from
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... er-eclipse
After I setup the gdb in Eclipse, I did the following steps:

1. I ran mingw32, and typed

Code: Select all

bin/openocd -s share/openocd/scripts -f interface/ftdi/tumpa.cfg -f board/esp-wroom-32.cfg

Code: Select all

Eclipse stucks at "Launching Scan: 87%"

I think GDB is not set up correctly in Eclipse.

Could you help me with this as well?

Thank you

Hi,

Could someone help me with this please? I spent days to figure out why esp32-thing and tumpa wont work with eclipse but work fine on terminal using openocd and gdb.

After I followed this instruction

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... ugger.html

I ran the debugger while openOCD up and running, I got "launching scan" stuck at 87%

Thanks
