GETTING TIME OUT ERROR WHILE DEBUGGING C Project USING GDBSERVER AND GDB

Hi Vishal,

The error in the screenshot occurs when the gdb client on the host cannot connect to the gdbserver running on the target. It could be that gdbserver was not started correctly or there is a port mismatch, etc. Those are some thing to check.

I re-read your post and realized that you are using RSE and that you were able to initially connect before losing connection.

Hi Ki-So,

      Thanks for your valuable reply. I checked above link, From link I find out that user was not able to

      set up connection between host and target even for while But I am able to connect and able to debug 5 to

       10 lines  of code after that I am getting  this message.

       HE may got this error  due selecting wrong option while setting "Debug Configuration". He may be

       using " GDB (DSF) Automatic Remote debugging Launcher" , In place of Manual Remote debugging

       Launcher . Previously I am also facing same problem.

        If anyone knows solution for above problem please help me.

         Regards,

         Vishal.

As mentioned in the url, can you confirm that you are using the correct versions of gdb client and gdb server (matching versions and same arch)?

hi ki,

   In CCS where we are setting GDB Client??  How and where to check for GDB client version and arch.

    on CCS. I am not aware of it. Please suggest me.

     I am using SDKv7 and AM335x starter kit.

       Regards

        Vishal.

You would specify the GDB client when creating a debug configuration. In is shown in these steps:

In this dialog:

Hi Ki,

   Thanks brother for replying,  I checked the path which were set.

   $ /home/vishal/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00/linux-devkit/sysroots/i686-arago-linux/usr/bin/

    arm-linux- gnueabihf-gdb.

     If you know anything else which may create problem in debugging then please share.

What you need to check is if the gdbserver that is being used on the target is the correct one for the gdb you are using. It's been awhile since I used the am335x SDK so I can't remember how that is all setup but that is what you need to check on your own.

Hi Ki,

   I am using GDB and GDBServer which is given with SDKv7. So hope both are compatible.

Vishal.
