NRF9160 Serial LTE Modem does not compile

Hello, 

I assume you are using the Toolchain Manager. Can you please tell me how you are opening the project? Have you tried building the project from command line? This can be done by opening either Bash or Command prompt from the dropdown menu in Toolchain Manager. 

Kind regards,
Øyvind

I tried the command "west build", which resulted in a claim that the west version was too old (0.8.0)

west update resulted in this error:

I had no errors when upgrading to 1.5.0 through the toolchain manager

NCS v1.5.0 needs west v0.9.0. That said the Toolchain Manager version of NCS v1.5.0 includes both Python 3.7 and west 0.9.0. Are you using a manually installed version of NCS?

Can you please elaborate on your setup?

I did install using the toolchain manager on Windows and installed the 1.5.0 (later I also installed the 1.5.0-rc1 lower in the table), it is an upgrade from an earlier install.

I try to upgrade West, but fail the explication on the West tool pages.

Could it be I'm not the local admin?

Should I start the toolchain manager as local admin?
