S60 Emulator shutsdown immediately!

[mika19]

Hi,

Ive installed S60 SDK 3rd Ed, maintainance release. When I try and run the emulator it opens for about 4 seconds then closes again?

Any ideas why this is? im running windows Vista Business which may have something to do with it.

I also installed the 3rd Ed Python Plugin.

Thanks

Mike

Have you actually tried typing vista in the Search field above?

actually! i have and ive gone through the advice given on the wiki but it doesnt seem to help the fact that it opens then closes immediately. Theres no error given.

Hi Mike,

I am having the same problem but independent of the plugins i.e. I am simply trying to run an existing example (HelloWorld) and the emulator comes up..does nothing for about 4 seconds and then dies...without any errors or warnings what so ever!!!

Which Windows OS you are using? Which is the SDK version? If you are using Carbide.c++ then which is the version of Carbide.c++?

Describe more about your problem and use cases.

Hi,

i have the same problem running the emulator. When i try to debug some application i get the follow message:

No source available for "0x1AAC977( ekern.exe )() "

Any ideas?
Im running Windows Vista, S60 3rd FP1, Carbide v1.3

[skumar_rao]

your IDE is not able to find the debug information from debug files. try clean and rebuild .

Sorry for the late reply Kiran, but here it is..

I am running the Carbide C++ ver 1.3 on Vista with the S60_3rd_FP2 SDK.

One strange behaviour though..when I run the command:
arm-none-symbianelf-g++ -print-libgcc-file-name

I get the return as : libgcc.a instead of the absolute path that I have heard that I should be getting...To mend this, I went into the cl_bpapi.pm and under the subroutines "GCCInstallPath" and "GCCLibPath" made a return of the absolute paths to the bin directory and the lib/gcc/3.4.3 directory, but still not luck. I am still getting libgcc.a when I run the above mentioned command..

This should not be happening..am I correct? This problem can cause the emulator to "kind of" die after a couple of second because of the corrupt make?

Btw..i also tried via CLI by first doing a bldmake BLDFILES and then a abld under the <SDK_path>\S60CppExamples\helloworldbasic\group folder. I got the same problem when I then ran epoc command. The emulator started, hung around for a couple of seconds and then went off to neverneverland!

Thanks for the help guys,

WiNK, It seems to be correct. I am also getting libgcc.a as an output of arm-none-symbianelf-g++ -print-libgcc-file-name.

I would really suggest you to go through the Wiki article: Moving to Windows Vista

I faced so many problems with these. I installed/uninstalled SDK, Carbide.c++, Perl etc... for 3-4 times. Finally i managed to get it working on Windows Vista with Carbide.c++ 1.2 version having S60 3rd FP1 SDK.

So do not give up. You should also give a try to this blog: S60 SDK and tools on Windows Vista - a success story

All the best,
Kiran.
