Problem Title:
M1.3 JTAG Programmer: Programming a 9500 device fails intermittently on
a Solaris machine



Problem Description:
Keywords: jtag programmer, jtagprog, xchecker, solaris, 5.5.1

Urgency: standard

General Description:

Trying to program a 9500 device using xchecker cable on a
Solaris 5.5.1 machine with the M1.3 Jtag programmer GUI or
commandline jtagprog executable will fail intermittently.

Here is the error message:

ERROR:basut - Xchecker re-configuration file for boundary-scan
      TAP driver was not completed. Check that the XILINX
      variable is set correctly, that the cable connections and
      power supply levels are correct. Run the cable
      diagnostics to check that the cable is functioning
      correctly.

If the problem occurs every time. there is most likely another
issue.


Solution 1:

The resolution is to try again. It should work on the next try.
