Should the ARM DS-5 Debugger work through an Altera JTAG server? 

 

In Eclipse, I do the following: 

 

 

  1. Select the "Run -> Debug Configurations..." menu item 

  2. Under "DS-5 Debugger", click "New_configuration" 

  3. On the Connection tab, select "Altera -> Arria V SoC -> Bare Metal Debug -> Debug Cortex-A9_0" 

  4. Change Target Connection to USB-Blaster 

  5. In the Connections area, click Browse... 

 

 

The Connection Browser window opens and displays an error: 

"The script file ( device_browser.py ) failed during execution:" 

 

 

Setup: 

Quartus 14.0 

ARM DS-5 5.18.0 

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 

ArriaV SoC 

 

 

Thanks for any help you can provide.

It does work. The solution was to add the Quartus linux32 directory (where libjtag_client.so resides) to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. In the bash shell, this is accomplished by executing the following: 

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<Quartus installation directory>/quartus/linux32:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} 

 

or, if the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is undefined, just: 

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<Quartus installation directory>/quartus/linux32 

 

DS-5 Eclipse must then be restarted.
