"JTAGM failed to initialise" - Atmel-ICE, UPDI, ATmega4809 about bloom HOT 3 CLOSED

I am genuinely super excited to let you know - yes, this seems to work now:

I can't tell you how awesome this is, finding working debug tools for the '4809 is next to impossible, so this is going to make a huge difference. Let me know if I can buy you a coffee somehow :-D.

Hi Tim,

Ah, I think I see the problem here. Bloom was failing to resolve the correct config variant for the debug session. This meant that it did not configure the UPDI clock speed, before attempting to set parameters on the debug tool.

I've applied the fix for this and rebuilt Bloom. I don't have an ATmega4809 to test with, so I've attached a link to the new build to this comment. Please remove your old build (v0.4.1) and install this build (v0.4.2).

New build (v0.4.2):
https://bloom-public-bucket.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/misc/Bloom-0.4.2-Linux.deb

You can remove your old build by running

sudo apt-get remove bloom

Then install the new build via

sudo apt install /path/to/new-build.deb

(replace the path in the above command)

Then try to run Bloom again, from within your project directory. Please post an update on this issue so I can decide whether to create an official release with this fix.

Thanks,
Nav

That's excellent news, thanks for confirming, Tim,

I've just published the new release as v0.4.2, with yourself being credited in the release notes for reporting the issue (https://github.com/navnavnav/Bloom/releases/tag/v0.4.2). The release is now live on the Bloom website.

Also, just FYI, I noticed that Bloom's TDF for the ATmega4809 was missing the PDIP package variant definition, so I've included that in the 0.4.2 release. But that was after building the release which was linked to my previous comment. So if you want to use the PDIP variant in the Insight window, you'll have to download the official version of the release from the website and then follow the same instructions as specified in my previous comment.

I'm going to close this issue now. Please let me know if you have any other issues with Bloom.
