Unable to download program to STM32F4 Discovery Board using OpenOCD-0.8.0 and simulink

Hello together,

I use Matlab-R2015b with Hardware Support Packages for STM32F4 Discovery Board. I'm not able to download program to STM32F4 Discovery Board using OpenOCD and simulink. I got the following error-message:

### Launching openOCD server "C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2015b\openocd-0.8.0\bin\openocd-0.8.0.exe" -f board/stm32f4discovery.cfg: 

Unable to launch the openOCD debugger to download the executable to target. Check the following:
        1. Are the 'ST-Link/V2' drivers installed properly?
        2. Did you connect the STM32F4-Discovery board to the host computer using a USB cable?
        3. Re-connect the STM32F4-Discovery board to the host machine and check that the drivers are detected.
For more information, look in the logfile generated by openOCD: C:/temp/stm32f4discovery_pb_led_ert_rtw/mw_openocd_log.txt.

Content of mw_openocd_log.txt:

srst_only separate srst_nogate srst_open_drain connect_deassert_srst

Error: open failed

I installed the driver for ST-Link and ST-Link V2. I can download the program to the board using ST-Link Ultility or Keil.

Could someone please help me? Thank you in advance!

Hi Florence, yes I solved the issue. The Problem in my case was the rihght Installation of the OpenOCD Version. And we have to correct the wrong path references in the configuration files. Matlab assumes the Version of OpenOCD 6, but the right Version is openocd-0.8.0. so you have to manually correct this. Generally try to run OpenOCD from the command line "- standalone" then let matlab to run it.

Thanks, in my case I followed the following steps from Mathwork input to get the problem fixed: (1) Go to the folder where your support packages are installed and go to the openocd-0.8.0 folder. For example, the default is C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2015b\openocd-0.8.0 (2) Open scripts\board\stm32f4discovery.cfg (3) Change source [find interface/stlink-v2.cfg] to source [find interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg] (4) Save and restart MATLAB. Try the example again.
