Please include a debug_level 3 log. This will tell me the origin of the error.

The error codes are not part of the user interface. They are sometimes used to communicate specific failures internally. If you do not get a human-readable error message as the origin, then there is a bug in OpenOCD, as errors should be logged at the lowest level where they are reported. Additional context is logged as the stack is unwound. I've committed a change that will avoid a false error message in the case that there is a bug for error message not being logged when writing to the target fails.

GDB alive packet > not sent! (1091) The problem here is that some part of the the reset sequence takes a long time without keep_alive() being called. This will cause alive packets to be sent to GDB so as to avoid weird error messages as below. again: debug_level 3 log will point out *where* the keep_alive() call is missing as the debug_level 3 log contains time for each logged statement. > > > Also, if (after a restart of everything) I connect to openocd with > "gdb someimage.elf", openocd prints: > > Info: accepting 'gdb' connection from 0 > waiting for target halted... > Error: timed out while waiting for target halted > Warning:acknowledgment received, but no packet pending > Warning:target not halted > Warning:target not halted > > Is this error serious?
