CCS/CCSTUDIO: Linux installation of any ccs 10 interrupts on sigsegv (segmentation fault) in ti_cgt_tms470 installer

Part Number: CCSTUDIO

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello all,

I was trying to install CCS 10.1 and 10.0 on openSUSE 15.1 but both installers fails on ti_cgt_tms470 package installation because of segmentation fault in this installer. I tried to run this installer from console and found segfault appearing on exit from this installer:

user@host:~/tmp/tms470> /tmp/ccs_308bab8b-971f-41d7-4157-4d0454d53800/CGT_DEFAULTLIBS_TMS470/ti_cgt_tms470_20.2.0.LTS_linux_installer_x86.bin --prefix "/home/user/ti/ccs1000/ccs" --eclipseprefix "/home/user/ti/ccs1000/ccs/eclipse" --ccs true

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
user@host:~/tmp/tms470>

Installation was started with following parameters: ./ccs_setup_10.0.0.00010.run --enable-components PF_MSP432,PF_CC2X,PF_CC3X,PF_TM4C

Both full and web install of 10 and 10.1 shows same behavior. 9.3 installs without any problems. Logs were uploaded during installation.

Is there a way to bypass this error somehow or make manual installation to use CCS 10.1? Or is there a way to troubleshoot it more?

Hello Alexey,

Can you provide any and all installation logs?

Hello ki,

I could provide even core dump (48Mb) if it will help. I've collect it. Where should I put files?

It may. Can you compress it down to a smaller size?

In any case let's start with the just the installation log for now.

Alexey,

I don't have access to openSUSE, however, could you try the prior 18.12 release and see if same issue occurs?

FYI, I have an OpenSuse 15.2 64-bit Gnome-desktop VM installed on VirtualBox. I am able to install CCSv10.1.0 without any issues.

Greg,

I have it installed along with ccs 9.3. Should I download standalone version and try to reinstall it?

Alexey,

Please try installing any 18.12 patch release. I don't believe we changed anything in our installer configurations from 18.12 to 20.2. I would expect both to behave the same.

Also, if you try installing a 20.2 release from below link, then are there any installation files generated after the segfault?

www.ti.com/.../ARM-CGT-19

Is your openSUSE version 32-bits or 64-bits? Is it a VM?

Thanks
Greg

Greg,

Just tested stand alone installers:

ti_cgt_tms470_18.12.6.LTS_linux_installer_x86.bin
ti_cgt_tms470_20.2.2.LTS_linux_installer_x86.bin

both installs successfully but ends with segfault.

I have openSUSE 15.1 64-bit (there is no 32) on real HW.

Alexey,

We've captured this installer bug in below Jira ticket:

https://sir.ext.ti.com/jira/browse/EXT_EP-10054

Thanks for your extra testing. Do you know if earlier compiler releases also have the issue with your openSuse version? https://www.ti.com/tool/download/ARM-CGT-17

Thanks

Alexey,

Could you please try the new 18.12.7.LTS installers and see if you have the same problem? These are our first 64-bit Linux installers and we're wondering if your problem was due to the old installers being 32-bits. All future installers will also be 64-bits. The 18.12.7.LTS version can be downloaded either as a CCS update/install or via ti.com.

Thank you,

Anna
