Tool/software: Code Composer Studio
After a fresh install of CCS 10.0.0.00010 under Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS attempted to install ti_cgt_c2000_18.1.1.LTS.
CCS 10 downloaded the installer, and after selected to re-start to complete the installation CCS didn't restart successfully. Attempting to run ccstudio from the command line cause the splash screen to appear, but ccsstudio just exited without reporting any obvious error before got to the dialogue where you select the workspace.
The contents of the eclipse/downloads directory was the following:
$ ls ~/ti/ccs1000/ccs/eclipse/downloads/ ccs_update_10.0.0.00010.run ccs_update_5.5.0.00092.bin com.ti.cgt.c2000.17.linux_manifest.xml com.ti.cgt.c2000.17.linux.properties startupInstaller_6.0.0.201611291427.log ti_cgt_c2000_18.1.1.LTS_linux_installer_x86.bin
The startupInstaller_6.0.0.201611291427.log file contained the following, for every failed attempt to start ccstudio:

Searching for the "highest file is not null" message found the related thread, for which got the idea to run the ccs_update_10.0.0.00010.run executable in the eclipse/downloads directory. When ccs_update_10.0.0.00010.run was manually run from the command line the ti_cgt_c2000_18.1.1.LTS installer was run and then CCS successfully started, and the new compiler was available and could be used.
Is this a issue with CCS 10 or the compiler installer?
Thank you Chester, for reporting the issue and for the excellent detailed analysis.
I have filed a bug for this. Please refer to the tracking link below:

Thanks for raising the bug.Ki said:I have filed a bug for this.
Just to say that the problem doesn't exist with CCS 10 under Windows 10.
Hi Chester,
We're working on a fix for this build, there will be an update posted soon. You found the workaround, running the ccs_update_10.0.0.00010.run executable from the downloads folder. The bug only exists on linux.
