OpenOCD and stm32 - microcontroller

My system: Windows 8, USB 3.0 ports.
I want to debug my stm32f7-disco in ChibiStudio. After build I try to connect using OpenOCD and ST-Link, but get the following:

I have tried different USB ports, different USB cables, and uploading with both the Arduino IDE and VS Code. I'm using the standalone version of the Arduino IDE, not the MS store version. I'm using Windows 10.

openocd - problem flashing nrf52 using stlink

I've got some issues flashing firmware using an STLINKv2 (from a Nucleo board) with an nRF52 target device using SWD. In short, I'm able to "connect" to the nRF52 (I can open a telnet session), but as soon as I try a Program command, I get a non-helpful error (below). Hex file is compiled using Arduino "export bin" file option. (Using a SEGGER isn't an option right now)
More details below:
OSX version 10.14.6, OpenOCD version 0.10.0.
Running in terminal openocd -f interface/stlink-v2-1.cfg -f target/nrf52.cfg returns:

Open On-Chip Debugger
In telnet, I can run basic commands on the nRF52, and when I execute: program /full/path/to/hex/file.hex I get the following message:
target halted due to debug-request, current mode: Thread
xPSR: 0x01000000 pc: 0xfffffffe msp: 0xfffffffc

Would love to know what I'm doing wrong!
ETA: The voltage error is not related; that was due to a bug in the Nucleo SWD programmer hardware one has to solder a jumper wire from the VDD-TARGET to the outward pin of R24. (When you break off the Nucleo from the STLINK board, you break off this link) Have done that, however the problem persists.

Problem Flashing nrf52 chip using Openocd

I have a custom nrf52 chip on a pcb with swd pins exposed. I have cloned and installed the latest openocd from https://github.com/ntfreak/openocd. The latest version includes all the latest pathes for the nrf52 chip, so no need for any additional changes as suggested in many older guides online. I am able to connect to the chip using ST-LinkV2. when connected I can read and write memory locations using mdw and mdb. I can also run some basic openocd commands like dump_image e.t.c, which confirms that the setup is good. But halt and program commannds always lead to errors like:
JTAG failure -4
JTAG failure -4
JTAG failure -4
JTAG failure -4
JTAG failure -4
JTAG failure -4

if I try to use flash image_write I get the error,

in procedure 'dap'
jtag status contains invalid mode value - communication failure
Polling target nrf52.cpu failed, trying to reexamine
I have read different guides online, and one of the possible solutions involves the APPPROTECT register which has to be disabled to enable any writes to flash.
APP_PROTECT, But the dap commmand which is supposed to help us access this bit,
dap apreg 1 0x04 0x01
returns an error:
invalid subcommand apreg 1 0x04 0x01
Please, I will like to know if anyone has had success programming a new empty nrf52 chip with the stlink-v2 and the steps which are necessary, or if any one has encountered similar problems. Thanks.
Here is my config file:
#nRF52832 Target
source [find interface/stlink.cfg]
transport select hla_swd
source [find target/nrf52.cfg]
#reset_config srst_nogate connect_assert_srst
I solved the "protected nRF52" chip problem this way, on Windows, using a Particle.io Debugger https://store.particle.io/products/particle-debugger setup to program nRF52 chips from Arduino as described in https://www.forward.com.au/pfod/BLE/LowPower/index.html
Note: The recovery process described here does NOT need Arduino to be installed
Download OpenOCD-20181130.7z pre-compiled openocd for windows from
http://gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi/openocd/
The latest version of openocd src on https://github.com/ntfreak/openocd should also work as it includes the apreg cmd in target\arm_adi_v5.c

then

then
nrf52.dap apreg 1 0x04
returns 1 << chip un-protected
then power cycle board
Can now use arduino ide to flash softdevice and code low power BLE
Even though the dap command is listed by openOCD help, it isn't implemented for transport hla_swd that you have to use with ST-Link.
If the ST-Link is a generic type from China, it can be upgraded to CMSIS-DAP which uses the swd transport and supports the nrf52.dap apreg 1 0x04 0x01 command to disable the readback protection and erase the flash. You'll need another ST-Link to do that, or you can instead install CMSIS-DAP on a generic STM32F103C8T6 board.
After that you can either use ST-Link to program the nRF52 or continue using CMSIS-DAP, which can also be used to program STM32 MCU.
Nucleo board embedded ST-Links can also be upgraded to J-Link, which allow the use of the "recover" option in nRFgo Studio to erase the flash, it should also work with "nrfjtool --recover" or OpenOCD.
If anyone encounters this problem, I solved the problem by getting an original Jlink-Edu. I also had to pull the reset pin of the microcontroller high to get the jlink working.
There are lots of JTAG messages.
I think you might be missing the
transport select hla_swd
line in your (board) cfg file. The NRF5x chips only work properly with SWD, and ST-Link uses the hla_swd variant.

Is there need to do any tweak in configuration level. Please assist and suggest.
The problem with digium card (wcte43x). The error
Underrun detected by hardware. Latency at max of 12ms is resolved once replaced the card. Thank you.

Arduino OpenOCD command works in IDE but not from CMD prompt. What am I missing? (NRF)

Arduino does the following successfully. But when I try it from the command line it fails. Why is that?

I have replaced the full path's to the hex files to make it easier to read.
I am trying to use Arduino as my tool-chain to upload a pre-built binaries with it. From the IDE I can do it but only with the Arduino Built code.
What am I missing?
I figured it out!!!
The command parameters need to be in quotes or Windows will think they are the next parameter because of spaces in them.
I get the feeling folder/file names with spaces will have the same issue.
