System Workbench for STM32


ERROR__DOWNLOAD_TASK_START_ISSUE

I downloaded and installed System Workbench for STM32 today (using the installer on fully up-to-date W10 Pro x64 machine).
I then followed the instructions here:
https://www.openstm32.org/Getting%2Bstarted%2Bwith%2BSystem%2BWorkbench%2Bfor%2BSTM32Question
to create a new project, I select my board from the drop-down list, but on the “Project Firmware Configuration” dialog, when I click the “Download target firmware” button an error popd i[ with title “Firmware Installation Process Issue”. It has the following content:
Sounds firmware installation has failed for internal reason
Error code = ERROR__DOWNLOAD_TASK_START_ISSUE

I tried one workaround found here:

to change the first broken link in stm32targets.xml, This however did not fix the problem - or change the behaviour in any way. I find no information on the openstm32.org website, including this forum, that is any more helpful.

It does seem clear however that the links (and perhaps other content) in the stm32targets.xml file(s) provided with the installation are broken. Perhaps this is the only problem, in which case it should be a quick and easy fix.

I do hope for a direct and authoritative response from someone at AC6...who will hopefully also update the installer to prevent everyone else from encountering the same problem.
