ESP-WROVER-KIT JTAG access

[PaulVdBergh]

Hi All,

This morning I received my first ESP32 development platform (ESP_WROVER_KIT). I followed the instructions per the espressif site and now I'm in trouble. I develop on Debian amd64 running in a VirtualBox under Windows10.

I was able to follow the guide up to

Code: Select all

$ make flash
$ make monitor

The next step is to setup JTAG debugging. I'm able to debug with 'sudo', but get errors without 'sudo' :

Code: Select all

paulvdbergh@TBTIoT-AMD:~/esp/openocd-esp32$ sudo bin/openocd -s share/openocd/scripts -f interface/ftdi/esp32_devkitj_v1.cfg -f board/esp32-wrover.cfg

I'm looking for solutions for hours now, I've created an .rules file giving 0666 to the JTag device, all to no avail...

Help is very welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Paul.

Just to see if your udev reloaded that rules file correctly, can you reboot the VM and see what happens? If any, I can acknowledge this is probably an issue with your udev rules file.

Hi and thanks for your answer,

After rebooting the VM (and effectively even the win10, I went to bed yesterday ) the problem persists.

Apologies for my ignorance on linux administration, I'm more confident with C/C++, but I've only added the 50-myusb.rules file into the /etc/udev/rules.d directory. Do I have to do something extra to take the rules in effect? Am I missing something else?

Regards,
Paul.

Hi,

Similar but different problem. I'm running Ubuntu WSL (on Windows 10). I can program my rover kit, but, I cannot use the openocd debugger. My Device Manager shows two USB Serial devices, COM12 and COM13. COM13 is the tty port that displays output. COM12 is likely the jtag port. Below is a list of my output after the command is entered. Any suggestions?
