How to resolve error - L6236E: No section matches selector - no section to be FIRST/LAST

Question

I've looked into other similer questions on stackOverflow but I haven't been able to get those solutions to work.

So, I've generated the code for STM32F4-Discovery using STM32CubeMX. First of all, on code generation, I get error message, saying "Code is successfully generated under /path/path but MDK-ARM V5.27 project generation has a problem".

If I ignore this error, and open the generated code on keil IDE, and straightaway just build the code, I get the following error.

Now, after searching on the internet, I found out that the solution for the error above is to add the Start-up code, and a way to do that is shown in the image below. (Ref. error: L6236E: No section matches selector - no section to be FIRST/LAST)

After including the startup code by following the steps in above image, I get following error.

I don't know if all these errors has to do with the first error that I get on cubeMX after code generation (that I keep ignoring).

In any case, someone please help me resolve this issue.

Thanks!

I've had a similar problem. After generating a project with CubeMX and adding CMSIS and FreeRTOS, I reached the same issue.

At the beginning I had the same problem with the Error: L6236E. The second image in the question solved it and then I reached the Error: L6200E, same as you.

What I had to do to resolve my issue, was remove the CMSIS from Drivers/CMSIS directory and removed it from all files that contained it.

Upon a rebuild, it worked flawlessly.
