AR# 35996 12.1 EDK - SDK "download operation timed out" error
Description
When I download my software application for debugging, the following error message occurs:
"download operation timed out."
What can I do to work around this problem?
Solution
This error occurs because of a problem in SDK.A patch has been created to resolve this issue:
- Download the patch.
- Make a backup of $XILINX_EDK/eclipse/$PLATFORM/eclipse/plugins/com.xilinx.sdk.debug.core_1.0.0.jar.
- Unzip the patch into $XILINX_EDK/eclipse/$PLATFORM/eclipse/plugins/.
This issue has been resolved in the 12.2 software.
If you are using v12.2 or later and experiencing a similar issue, there is a setting in the SDK GUI to increase the timeout values for launch and debug operations.
In SDK, Window -> Preferences. select C/C++ -> Debug -> GDB MI. By default, the Debugger timeout is set to 10000 ms, whereas the Launch timeout is set to 30000 ms. Increasing the Debugger timeout to a value greater than, or equal to the Launch timeout helps resolve this issue.
