CCS/TMDSEVM5517: Error in opening file.tcf in Code Composer Studio version 8

Hi Don,

Please refer to the linked below E2E thread:

Hi Tsvetolin,

Thank you for supporting me. But your supporting link have the same content to E2E thread e2e.ti.com/.../422003 which I had followed before.

BR,

Hi Don,

Please refer to e2e.ti.com/.../422003

oops. I just saw you did. I'll have someone respond.

Todd

Don,
which product have you installed in CCS8 to get DSP/BIOS working? I am not really able to install a DSP/BIOS product in CCS8 to replicate the problem. Anyway, somewhere in the project properties there should be a tab named Tconf, which displays the Tconf command line, and the command line should be similar to "C:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools\tconf -b". Add '--d' option to it, so it will look like this:
"C:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools\tconf --d -b".
Then try to build again and post the output. There should be more debugging info in the output.

Dear Sasha,
Thank you for suggestion. Today is the saturday that is a holliday of my company in VietNam, so I'll give you more debugging info in the next monday.
Have a nice day.
BR,
Don

Dear Sasha,

I have followed your instruction:

I have gotten some debugging information:

Please check and give me some advices.

Thank you.

BR,

Don.

Don,
this points to msvcr71.dll or some other dll not being on the path. The easiest thing to verify that you have a correct path is to open a command line window and then set path:
$> set PATH=C:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools\jre\bin;C:\windows\system32
and then run tconf
$> c:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools\tconf.exe --d
If tconf still fails, then it's probably a different DLL and the debugging becomes more involved. I would recommend getting Process Monitor from docs.microsoft.com/.../procmon, and start it. It reports a lot of traffic, but you should go to Filter->Filter... and add a rule "Process Name is tconf.exe then Include". After that, run tconf again, and you should get a long list of events. Somewhere towards the bottom there will be "NAME NOT FOUND" or some similar error status. It will refer to a string under the column "Path". Whatever is listed under Path is the a DLL or another component that is missing.

Dear Sasha,
I have followed your instructions. I've gotten some results:

I used the ProcessMonitor which you suggestted. Like this:

Then, I have compiled project CSL_McBSP_Master_AIC3204_48kbps_POLL, the error is still remaining.

You can see the process monitor log in the attached file:

Logfile.rar
What should I do next?
Thank you so much.
BR,
Don

The command window output shows that when jre/bin is in the path, tconf is working as expected, so the problem with tconf in CCS8 is that your PATH changes are not seen by CCS. I can't see from the thread what changes you have made previously, but you should adjust your PATH under Environment Variables to include jre/bin, then reboot your PC just in case, and then restart CCS.

Dear Sasha,

As you can see from the beginning of the thread, I followed the instructions from link: e2e.ti.com/.../422003  and added two environment path variables:

I've also checked in CCS enviroment PATH in CCSv8 by using step by step: Windows -> Preferences -> Code Composer Studio -> Build -> Variables -> Show system variables, two environment path variables can be seen in CCSv8 :

 

Based on the list of processor monitor when debugging tconf.exe:

I decided to copy file msvcr71.dll from C:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools\jre\bin into C:\ti\bios_5_42_02_10\xdctools then I compiled project CSL_McBSP_Master_AIC3204_48kbps_POLL  again and it worked. It's so surprising. Here is a result:

However, this error haven't disappeared yet after trying to open file file.tcf in CCSv8:

Do you have any ideas? Please tell me.

Thank you

BR,

Don
