For those that have been waiting eagerly, the new USB installer is now making its way through the pipes and should be awailable on gallery.atmel.com in day or so. For those that can't wait, I have sneaked it up to distribute.atmel.no as well. The new version without the windows 8 issues are from the 7.0 series, where the older installer was in the 6.2 series.

 

The 7.0 installer should upgrade the older installer seamlessly. The troublesome 16-bit error during driver registration is replaced with the DifxApp extension to the WiX system.

 

The installer has been tested on Windows XP up to Windows 10 without issues. Strong signing is now used, so the security popups should now be reduced (1 for jungo, 1 for Atmel on windows 7, less on other versions). Install speed has increased on most platforms, although Windows XP is still slow. This is due to issues in the authenticode system in XP, which is triggered for each inf file we register.

 

If you have issues, run the installer with a '/log log.txt' argument and attach the log files that are generated (1 called log.txt, and 1 txt file for each sub-installer, i.e jungo, segger,libusb,winusb and atmel).

The drivers loaded fine here in 8.1, 10, and 1x.

Some issues were found in the original 7.0 installer: error in Jungo registration causes atbackend to fail to load.

 

 

I have updated the original link to the new 7.0.666 version that fixes the issues.

Morten (it's easy when I can see it written down in front of me!),

 

Does that mean the recent AS6.2SP2 is similarly afflicted then?

 

I haven't actually grabbed it yet but if it's to be amended I'll hold off for a bit longer.

Yes. sad

 

However, upgrades are not affected for this. However, we have gotten reports that ASF fails to register if the SP2 upgrade is installed on a SP1 version where ASF have been upgraded in between... (its been a hell of a day, to say the least)

Now I'm confused (easily achieved!)

 

Are you saying that if I have 6.2SP1 then get and install 6.2SP2 that it wasn't going to upgrade my USB drivers anyway? I was rather hoping it would. In fact that was going to be one of my main reasons for upgrading.

Are you saying that if I have 6.2SP1 then get and install 6.2SP2 that it wasn't going to upgrade my USB drivers anyway?

Yes it is. However, the issue is not with the drivers itself.

 

Basically:

  • The Jungo msi (part of the drive package) deploys the wdapi userland driver dlls into system32 (and syswow64).
  • atbackend then picks up the correct wdapi dll from system32 through the normal load path.
  • If wdapi is not loadable, for some internal as quite obscure reason, the simulator bundle (part of atbackend) fails to load. This is probably just the tip of a bundle load error cascade, meaning that the connection bundle also doesn't load. The connection bundle is the abstraction over usb, serial port etc which also covers discovery.
  • Backend crashes, leaving the frontend all alone.

 

However, the 464 seems to fail silently when there are NO wdapi files from before, which sort of defeats the point. 666 Copies in a different way, and will also fail hard if the copy fails. However, all usb installers since the early days have deployed these dlls, so the issue is only seen on totaly clean machines (for now, I have only reports for windows 7 as well).

 

Another issue that has been reported during the last 24 hours is also that ASF fails to load into Atmel Studio, causing much strangeness. Currently, it looks like it is because we install the same version as the one on the gallery. However, the registration of ASF has already de-registered ASF from Atmel Studio before it sees that there shouldn't be any new install, and it fails to re-enable the registration. This seems to have some inpact on the project system as well, somehow (still to be analysed). If you have the ASF from SP1, then there is a real upgrade and everything is seemingly honky-dory.

A bit more detail of what I did when installing the new 7.0.666 drivers.  I use Windows 8.1 and 10.  The instructions may be different from what you need to do, but should achieve the same result.

 

  1. Uninstall the Atmel USB Driver Package via Programs and Features.
  2. Uninstall all device driver instances (Atmel-ICE, AVRisp-MKII, etc.) in the device manager each time ticking the "Delete the driver software for this device" checkbox.
  3. Repeat the last step after disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable until the device shows up in "Other devices" with a yellow exclamation mark.  This sequence insures that you do not have any left behind artifacts of bad drivers for the devices on your computer.
  4. Disconnect all programmer/debugger devices from your computer.
  5. Run the new 7.0.666 driver installer.

 

If you are considering upgrading to Atmel Studio 6.2sp2, and I suggest that you do so, install AS6.2sp2 first, then run the 7.0.666 driver installer.  Make sure that none of your programmer/debugger devices are not connected to the computer while you are doing these installs.

Morten, I spoke too soon.  Where did the simulator go?  A bunch of my projects that I used to be able to simulate do not even show the simulator as an option anymore. :\

Do you have any other tools? Simulator not showing usually means that atbackend has crashed. Can you run atbackend from the atmel studio command line?

I have all of the other tools, well the ones I have are all listed.

 

How many files are there supposed to be in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Atmel Studio 6.2\tools\Simulator\models" ?

C:\>atfw --list
Connected tools:
atmelice        J41800034427
avrispmkii      <n/a>

I also show 54 files total.  atbackend is up and running.

 

I changed the device in one of the projects that uses an ATtiny2313 to a different device and then back to the ATtiny2313 and the simulator now shows up in the drop down list and it works.  Something is still not right with AS6.2sp2 and the new drivers, at least not here on this machine.

 

I need some sleep, I'll be back in a few hours.

I'm thinking this is not a driver issue, but a project issue... The driver issue would cause atbackend to crash, but has no effect on Studio. The fact that simulator pops up is that that is the run-time component that first accesses the usb system. atfw is actually better at showing the driver issues, since it uses the connection system directly, and actually logs problems (try to do a 'atfw --list --verbose 8' to show more logs, since I was sort of hoping that the isp2 would have a serial...)

The isp2 is a LUFA clone.  Though it does not install as it used to either.  It also used to display the serial number.  It still does in avrdude mode.

 

It now only shows up as an AVRISP mkII under libusb-win32 devices and not an AVRISP mkII under Jungo in the device manager.  This allows it to work in AS, but it does not report a serial number there in the drop down lists.

 

If I do bind it via the avrispmkii.inf it shows up as an AVRISP mkII under Jungo in the device manager and it shows a serial number in AS but it does not work.  This used to work correctly before AS6.2sp2 and the driver changes.

 

The fact that I had to switch to a different device and back to get the simulator to show up in the drop down list is a mystery.  I still have other projects that are not showing the simulator either, and other people have posted as having the same problem with the simulator not showing up.  I do not think this is a project specific issue at all.

 

Sorry to say, but this driver situation has only gotten more bizarre with each iteration.  I'm getting rummy, not even coffee will help now, good night, or rather, have a good day.

Hehe, rummy is usually a good thing over here (it involves rum).

 

I still stand, if you are able to talk to the usb devices, then this has nothing to do with the drivers. Why the simulator has to be reselcted is extremely weird...

Can the arguments/switches for atbackend.exe be passed after install ?

 

Uneeded, simulator now working cheeky

 

Install 6.2 , move to C:\Program Files\Atmel\Atmel USB Driver\Jungo\usb32 & copy wdapi1010.dll to system32.

Either reinstall studio or extract the Backend.msi from the installer & repair install, enjoy devil

I would rather have a sanctioned fix from Atmel, thank you.

Install 6.2 , move to C:\Program Files\Atmel\Atmel USB Driver\Jungo\usb32 & copy wdapi1010.dll to system32.

Which is what the new driver installer does. Are you saying that you had to manually copy the dll even with the new installer linked above (build 666)?

@tricky_dicky, So when I posted this in the other thread

If you read that whole thread you will see that it discusses the atbackend issue.  That is what the newest, 7.0.666 version, driver install was supposed to fix.  ...

you ignored what I said about the driver and didn't even try it first before going off on a tangent and doing your own work around.  Is that correct?  Sort of wasted our time if it is.

Stated i didn't use 7.0666,  indeed read your posts betweem morten & yourself even the post after you installed 7.0.666 & stated the simulator still didn't work?!?

Without anywhere in these posts did it describe in detail what the fix does, i spent 4 hours of my own time fixing the problem for me & stating what i did.

 

Sorry for wasting your time!

I stated that it did not work initially, but then I explained a procedure that got the simulator back in my project.  If you had downloaded and installed 7.0.666 and done what I suggested, instead of just saying the procedure didn't work, you would have saved everybody some time and effort.  Sorry for seeming a bit miffed.  In the end it all worked out and that is the important factor.
