debugger will not launch

[NaFi_2915566]

Using CYW943907AEVAL1F with Wiced Studio 6.2.1.2.

I am following the instructions in "CYW943907AEVAL1F Evaluation Kit User Guide, Doc. No. 002-18703 Rev. **"

• when I start debug with "43xxx-Wi-Fi_Debug_Windows." as the UG says, I get the following errors

!ENTRY org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb 4 5012 2018-12-20 18:40:30.207

!MESSAGE Error with command: C:\tempwork\WICED-Studio-6.2\43xxx_Wi-Fi\tools\ARM_GNU\Win32\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe --version

• When I look at debug configurations, "43xxx-Wi-Fi_Debug_Windows." is listed as "GDB Hardware Debugging".  When I look at installation details I see "L-Link Debugging" and "OpenOCD debugging", but no GDB (HW) Debugging?  Is this expected?
• "WICED-Studio-6.2\43xxx_Wi-Fi\tools\ARM_GNU\Win32\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe" does exist, I checked

Any ideas?

Are you setting up the debugger as mentioned in Re: wiced Debug​ and still you are seeing these errors?

that solved my launching debugger (I was following a blog that looked almost the same as the document but I think was for an older version of the IDE).

Now I can debug and run but cannot hit breakpoints.  The IDE accepts breakpoints but never hits them (I know it is executing the lines because I am getting the outcome).
