CCSv4 Debugger Not Launching

Maykel Alonso
Intellectual 285 points


After Updating code composer Studio the debug option does not launch. The following message it is launched:

 

Excepetion occurred during launch

Reason: An internal error occurred during 'Creating Debug Server.

Please see the Error log for details

 

Details are:

Contract ID "@ti.com/DebugServer1;1" is not registered with XPCOM Runtime. (0x80004005)

 

I tried to delete xpti.dat and compreg.dat and restart CCSv4 on <INSTALL DIR>\ccsv4\DebugServer\win32\components but does not work.

 

Please any idea of what it is happening and how to solve...

    Hi,

    This error was reported in the past and it seems the solution is to reinstall the MS runtime installer provided with CCS:

    For future reference, this problem was tracked down to the Microsoft runtime libraries not being installed by the CCS v4 installer. Running the Microsoft runtime installer (MSVC80_Runtime.msi, included with the CCS v4 install pacakge), allowed the customer to proceed. We're looking at ways to detect and prevent this from occuring in future releases.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

    Many thanks dezouza,

    I tried that, and the problem persists.

    Any other idea?

    Maybe I could export the workspace and then unistall completly the ccs and reinstall step by step... What do you think?

    Hi,

    Yes, I am afraid the CCS installation was somehow unsuccessful when installing this component. Provided you keep a copy of your workspace you can uninstall CCS, remove the directory completely (if there are still leftovers) and then reinstall - make sure you have admin privileges in your system to properly register and install all components. 

    I would also suggest installing the latest version, as many bugs were fixed.

    Regards,

    Rafael

    I am having the same difficulty that the original poster had.  I tried both steps:

    First I uninstalled and reinstalled MSVC80_runtime.msi.  Following that I restarted code composer and tried to initiate a debug session.  Same error (shown at beginning of this thread).

    Next I uninstalled everything on my win7 PC related to Texas Instruments.  I had 3 different version of CCS installed at the time and uninstalling one worked, then uninstalling the others didn't really work (complained that it could not complete).  Anyway, I deleted everything in C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments after that.  Then I downloaded the latest CCS (4.2.4.00033) and installed it.  After this I still get the same error.  So I tried the first step again with no luck.

    Can anyone spot anything that I should have done differently?  This all started when I used the 'Help->Software Updates->Find and Install' feature.

    Alright.  I repeated what I did above again but included a reboot for good measure.  It's back to normal, that error no longer appears when I try to start debugging.  I'm going to guess that the reboot is required when removing and re-installing the MSVC80_runtime component.  Not sure, though.

    is there anyone to solve this problem ? The problem comes from windows update.

    SOLUTION: Uninstall CCS V4. Delete all of its directories. Then start to setup CCS V4 but do not setup platinium option. Choose microcontroller setup option. The problem will be fixed.
