Problems running CCS 5.5 simulator in Linux

Hi,

I'm running CCS v5.5 in Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. When I try to load program in the C6678 Device Functional Simulator I get the following error message:

Warning: SIM Initialisation for this DSP not properly Done: CanNot Run

I'm using the default initialization script and Config Script of the target configuration file.

Does anyone know how what might be causing this problem?

Thanks

  • Hello,
    Is it a specific program that is causing the issue? Or does it happen for any program?

    Thanks

  • Hi Ki,

    It happens for any program. I tried the CCS "helloWorld" and it doesn't work either. Maybe there's some lib that is necessary and I didn't install it?

    Thanks

  • Strange. Everything you need should come with the default CCS installation. I just tried loading the CCS "hello world" example myself on the C6678 device functional simulator (LE) with CCSv5.5 in Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit and it loaded fine. You installed all the CCS dependencies for your linux distribution, correct? If so, then there must be something wrong with your installation. I've never seen that error message myself. I'll forward this to the simulation experts for more analysis.

    thanks

  • Hi ki,

    The problem wasn't the libs. I checked the dependencies and reinstalled CCS but I kept getting the problem. But I found out the reason of the error message that didn't let me simulate the program. As I didn't need all cores, I configured the target config file and bypassed the cores that wouldn't be used, but turns out that this triggered the error. So if my target file initializes all cores (even if they're not necessary) it works, but if I bypass 1 or more core (e.g. Core7) it throws that error.

    Thanks for your attention.
