TFTP problem: Seems like you aren't running tftp udp service on port 69

TFTP problem: Seems like you aren't running tftp udp service on port 69

  • Hi All, I'm quite despearate and anxious, as I thought I was so close to getting the 5M camera sensor to work on the Leopard 365 board. This TFTP errors bothers me a lot. 

    After a mad scrambling and climbing the steep learning curve of Linux, RidgeRun SDK, and Leopard board systems, I managed to set up and install the SDK.  Now I'm trying to load the demo program for the 5M MP9T031 sensor to use it as a IP cam.

    I've not been able to use tftp service. I've been using serial to flash the disk image, but that's taking a very long time each time I make any changes in "make config".  If I switch to tftp I get the following error:

    DEVDIR$ make install
      Ridgerun Linux SDK
      Board configuration: Leopard Board DM365
      Multi-core machine, using 1 out of 2 cores for building
     
      Installation system of uboot images over TFTP for host 192.168.1.106
      Please be sure u-boot is running on port /dev/ttyS0 and none process (like minicom) is using it
      u-boot port /dev/ttyS0


      Error: Seems like you aren't running tftp udp service on port 69, please check your server settings.

    Would you know what the problem is? I've followed the instruction on https://www.ridgerun.com/developer/wiki/index.php/Setting_Up_A_Tftp_Service to set up my tftp server.  I've verified that /etc/xinetd.d/tftpis indeed using port 69.  I've cross-checked with the server_args in the configuration file and the folder setting for TFTP is consistent.  Currently, I have both the server PC and Leopardboard connected to different ports on my router by ethernet cables.

    Could anyone help please? Thanks so much!

    Jane
