STM32F469I make issue

Question

Hello,

I tried to use the hello world example and get the following error while try to "make" the project using the following link example(http://doc.embedded-wizard.de/getting-started-stm32f469-discovery):

STM32Cube check failed:
The STM32Cube package was not found on the expected path:
'D:\STM32\STM32F469-Discovery\Build\..\..\STM32Cube_FW_F4'.
Please install the STM32Cube package to this folder [Please refer to ReadMe.txt]

or adapt the STM32Cube path in 'Build\devenv.cmd'.

Hi,

important is the first error message:

STM32Cube check failed:
The STM32Cube package was not found on the expected path:
'D:\STM32\STM32F469-Discovery\Build\..\..\STM32Cube_FW_F4'.
Please install the STM32Cube package to this folder [Please refer to ReadMe.txt]

All the provided makefiles expect the exact location of the different packages as written within the getting started document - please compare your installation with the following directory structure:

Ideally, the common installation directory is within your user document folder.

I hope this helps...
