In rp2040.cfg getting error "Unknown param: -dp-id" about openocd HOT 4 CLOSED

Have you installed openocd following the instructions in https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/pico/getting-started-with-pico.pdf or are you using some older version?

EDIT: Ahh, and see also https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/debug-probe.html#linux-and-raspberry-pi

from openocd.

@lurch Yeah, I followed the instructions on the debug-probe page. I actually did both the sudo apt install openocd and locally cloned\built\installed, which I wonder if that might be causing the issue...

EDIT: Removed & reinstalled via sudo apt install openocd and same issue :(

Figured it out... Appears I need to read instructions better.

For anyone else who might've did the same thing I did:
sudo apt install openocd is only if you're running on Raspberry Pi OS. If you're running on Debian, then do not install this. It will not work even if you also follow the clone\build\install directions as well.

Usually, if you've installed a program through apt (which typically installs things into /usr/bin), and also compile and install the same program from source (which normally installs things into /usr/local/bin), then the version that you've installed from source takes precedence over the apt-installed version, because /usr/local/bin normally appears before /usr/bin in your $PATH. But I guess running things as sudo might interfere with that?

If you want to ensure that you're using the installed-from-source version rather than the apt-installed version, you could run

sudo /usr/local/bin/openocd ...

instead of

sudo openocd ...

EDIT: And when you run the version of openocd from this repo, you'll see something like Open On-Chip Debugger 0.12.0-g4d87f6dca (2024-02-04-23:01) rather than the Open On-Chip Debugger 0.11.0 message that you're (presumably) getting from your apt-installed version of openocd.
