    Hi Stevin,

    Thanks for using the E2E forums. The newest versions of SysConfig should already be included in your download of CCS and C2000ware. Please make sure you are using the latest version of both CCS and C2000ware. If needed, you may have to do a clean install of CCS 11.0, making sure to check any SysConfig and C2000-related options during installation. Afterwards, you can import your project into the new version of CCS and try to compile your syscfg project again. Please let me know if you are able to fix this issue.

    Regards,

    Peter

    Hello Peter,

    The thing is , I have received a beta version of a software which is currently not yet released. Thus the sysconfig being used is also not distributed, thus updating or installing new sysconfig is of no use. By default my ccs is using version 10, i want to know how to change it to version 11 which is in my hand.

    Please have a look at "how to use " note from ti ..

    Thanks and Regards,

    Stevin Martin

    Hi Stevin,

    Thank you for updating me on that. I am in the process of procuring the newest beta patch so I can test it out myself.

    In the meantime, typically when you are applying a patch, you want to make sure to overwrite/replace the existing files, so be sure to select that option when prompted. Copy the patch folder you received and paste it into the the ccs install location, making sure that you paste into the parent of the folder which shares the same name as the patch folder. If it is not all contained a single folder but is instead multiple files and folders, just copy and paste them into the parent folder that contains all the matching file and folder names.

    You should receive a prompt asking whether you want to replace/merge the folders. Be sure to select the option which merges the folders and overwrites any files with the same name. This should be done for options 3 and 4 in the text file you provided.

    Please let me know if that helps while I get the sysconfig patch on my own computer.

    Regards,

    Peter

    Hi Stevin,

    I appreciate your patience. I was able to procure the patch and have installed it in my own C2000ware and CCS11 directories. Please ensure you use a program like 7zip to extract the files. I received an error regarding "file path too long" when using Windows File Explorer, but this issue was resolved by using 7zip. Additionally, when copying over the files from the patch to the directories, ensure you are dragging and dropping or copying and pasting over the files. When the following prompt appears, ensure you are replacing the files in the destination.

    Afterwards, I started up my CCS and imported a driverlib example, per the instructions. I did not get your error, but instead I had a multiple declared files error, which was resolved by referring to this post: https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/c2000-microcontrollers-group/c2000/f/c2000-microcontrollers-forum/1027831/tms320f280025c-sysconfig-v1-9-0-build-errors-after-upgrading-from-v1-8-1

    Afterwards, I was able to test the example with no issues. I am not sure what is causing your issue. I suggest following the below steps and ensuring that SysConfig 1.11 appears in your CCS directory. 

    Open project properties

    Select CCS General --> Products tab

    Select SysConfig, clicked Edit...

    Click Preferences link

    Under Product Discovery path:   Add path to SysConfig 1.11.0 install directory

    If this does not appear, you may have to try reinstalling the patch. 

    Regards,

    Peter
