When trying to connect to Azure Sphere using the provided azsphere_connect.sh, we get an error, as below:

$ sudo ./azsphere_connect.sh -v VERBOSE: Looking for attached Azure Sphere devices VERBOSE: Found attached Azure Sphere device at /dev/ttyUSB2 VERBOSE: Setting up SLIP connection ERROR: Could not establish SLIP connection.

This has been acting like this for a few months. The only workaround I found was to patch net-tools/slattach to support the higher speeds required by Azure Sphere and use that instead.

Currently, the only supported Linux distros are Ubuntu 18.04. Are you seeing this error if you are using Ubuntu as well?

Here's the link to documentation - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure-sphere/install/install-sdk-linux#prerequisites

  • Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Ubuntu machine to try this out. Still, regular `slattach` from `net-tools` works fine on the same machine; this points to a problem with `azsphere_slattach` – Felipe Balbi May 03 '20 at 06:14
