We found the issue, we did a stupid mistake in the adapter between HS3 connector and FPGA cards. TDI pin was not connected properly. Now it works

Hi Zygot thanks for your answer The ISE 14.7 I have installed in UBUNTU can open and I can compile my VHDL project, Now I have a bit file I would like to program in my target FPGA (Spartan3 Core 3S500E). Impact doesn-t work (I am not able to initialize device chain), so I decided to try ADEPT Utilities. As I understood the "djtgcfg prog -d JtagHs3 -i 0 -f ~/LED/leda.bit" should program my target with the bit file I have generated. Am i wrong? The djtgcfg enum works but the djtgcfg init -d JtagHs3 fails to initialize How can I know if the utilities supports my specific device? Device is a Spartan 3, it should be supported, am I wrong?

I have installed ISE 14.7 on Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit to program my FPGA Spartan3 Core 3S500E. During the ISE installation, I encountered a failure while installing the cable driver, so I manually installed the following: * digilent.adept.runtime_2.27.9-amd64.deb * digilent.adept.utilities_2.7.1-amd64.deb After installing Adept, I am able to run the command: sudo djtgcfg enum Found 1 device(s) Device: JtagHs3 Device Transport Type: 00020001 (USB) Product Name: Digilent JTAG-HS3 User Name: JtagHs3 Serial Number: 210299ABB8F0 However, when I attempt initialization or programming commands, I encounter the following errors: sudo djtgcfg init -d JtagHs3 Initializing scan chain... Found Device ID: d5046093 Found Device ID: 41c22093 ERROR: failed to initialize scan chain or sudo djtgcfg prog -d JtagHs3 -i 0 -f ~/LED/leda.bit ERROR: failed to initialize scan chain Could you please help me understand what might be causing this problem?
