GDBserver Failed to start after update to Nsight Tegra 3.3

RichUK · June 21, 2016, 8:40am

Just installed latest Nsight Tegra v3.3 and now I get “can not launch gdbserver: all options failed”

It was working fine with Nsight v1.4. Heres the log.

Hi RichUK,

What devices and OS Images do you use? It seems an issue we have fixed in Our Dev branch.

Victor

RichUK · June 29, 2016, 9:05am

Hi Victor,
The devices are both ODROID Rooted

Device 1 is a X2 with Android 4.4
[url]http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code=G135235611947[/url]
Device 2 is a C2 with Android 5.1
[url]http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code=G145457216438[/url]

Since starting the thread I have tried several different versions of Nsight tegra and got some interesting results.

v1.4 - Working fine on X2, but failed on the C2 (unable to set break points)
v1.51 - Same as 1.4 above
v2.0 - Failed to build project (Compile: header errors)
v2.2 - Working on both X2 and C2
v3.1 - Failed on both Invalid ELF header.
v3.2 - Failed on both “Unable to Attach to Debugger”
v3.3 - As 3.2 above.

the log above is from the 3.3 latest.

So Im now using v2.2 as it works.

Hi RichUK,

Thank you for your patient triage on it.
The vendor has customized OS image which caused some shell cmd execution failure.

We don’t have these devices. As it is rooted, you rename the old cmd and make a wrapper as a workaround.
If you could provide us the repro samples, we can fix it.
