MCU Info Device not found in database

[tlamb96]

I'm using an STM32f4 Discovery board. When I try to flash the board, everything is fine until I reach the line:
Fetching MCU Info... Device not found in database! Disconnecting... Disconnected.
Any help would be great.

Hi,

Can you provide some debug output?

Thanks.

Which OS are you running?
Are you sure the SWD jumpers are in place on the board?

Ubuntu 14.04 and both of the jumpers are on the connect to the STLink pins (CN3 I believe)

My STM32F4 board was shipped with Read Out Protection to level 1 which disables any writing to the memory. As an STM32 novice, this took quite a lot of time to figure out but is now fixed.

Thanks for the info, I'll have a look at making some checks in the code from now on.
