Debugging: keeps waiting on "uploading file..."

[ranshalit]

Hello,

I am using qtcreator 3.5.1, based on qt5.5.1
I cross compiled, and try to debug a remote device.
But it even does not fail on timeout, it keeps waiting as following:

15:33:33: Running steps for project testapp...
15:33:33: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step.
15:33:33: Starting: "/usr/bin/make"
make: Nothing to be done for `first'.
15:33:33: The process "/usr/bin/make" exited normally.
15:33:33: The remote file system has 2560 megabytes of free space, going ahead.
15:33:33: Deploy step finished.
15:33:33: Uploading file "/home/user/build-testapp-GSDU-Debug/testapp"...

And nothing happens any more
there is also a deploy status bar in the right botton on screen which says "finished 3 of 4 steps"
I've validated that ssh, sftp , gdb works OK.
I could debug with cdt eclipse, but I think it is much stronger to use qt debugging, (if I will just overcome this issue...)

Any idea ?

Regards,
Ran

I have no idea, but two questions that might help others get ideas:

• Does just deploying work?
• What is the device? & all details of it... Details do often matter with peculiar behaviours and bugs. The more details, the better.

Hi mvuori,

It is TI's DM8148 (armv7 cortex a8), with arago filesystem, I needed to add ssh (I used dropbear), and sftp server (I added openssh), then I verified that ssh, and sftp server works OK, and also did simple debug in eclipse. kernel version 2.6.37.

I also tried to google if anyone encounter such thing. no results. that's really strange.

Thanks,
Ran

Hi,
I see that deploy does not finish (not even timeout)
What else can I do ?
sftp + ssh works Ok.

Thanks,
