PyOCD failed to reset the target

Hello

I use the STM32L476 board witch Mbed Studio. I search the debug my program but i have a message error Following:

“pyocd.core.exceptions.TargetSupportError: Target type ‘stm32l476rg’ not recognized. Use ‘pyocd list --targets’ to see currently available target types. See https://github.com/mbedmicro/pyOCD/blob/master/docs/target_support.md for how to install additional target support.

Could not complete debug: Request reset failed with message: PyOCD failed to reset the target, please check the logs for more information”

What can I do?
Thanks in advance for your answer

I just tried to debug a Nucleo-L152RE using MBED Studio and received a similar message about PyOCD.

Checking the MBED hardware documentation for the L152RE informs me that there three different interfaces supported on USB (and that you can debug)

  • Virtual Com port
    
  • Mass storage (USB Disk drive) for drag'n'drop programming
    
  • Debug port
    

I’ll see what I can learn about PyOCD… and a quick search online gives me a good starting point: Debugging with pyOCD! | Mbed

Hello,

Unfortunately, not all Mbed enabled boards are supported by PyOCD yet. For more info read here.

Hello,

You can consider debugging with OpenOCD which supports more targets at the moment than pyOCD. If you cross-compile on Linux then see for example Building and debugging offline with QtCreator.
