Simulink real time target boot kernel download problem

Hello,

Yesterday, during boot-up, my target pc started to give an error that I have never seen before.

My target is configured as a network boot. network settings of both host and target never changed.

After netwoork boot exe on host recognizes the target and says it is booting the target, target goes to a screen saying : " downloading kernel0a0a0a19.rtb .......................................... error : unable to read file.

Does anybody know how to fix this error?

p.s. MATLAB 2016b

At the risk of being obvious, could you verify that the file is in the proper directory and has not lost read permissions and the containing directory is readable (and has execute permissions if you are on osx or Linux)?

If you are on osx or Linux could you do a process trace to see which file it is accessing and the success? That is, to track whether the problem is in serving the file or in transfering the file, or in the target deciding the file is not valid

I'm on a windows machine.

By the way, which directory are you referring to? matlab's curent directory is pointed to the folder in which my target simulink model is located. However, my problem is not about downloading the application. The simulink real time screen does not even show up.

The network boot executable has to be getting the file from somewhere. I am suggesting that you trace operating system calls to see which files the network boot attempts to open.

I wonder if it is using bootp or netboot?

Is this link applicable to my windows os?
