CCS complains "No build-tools are currently installed for this device-family."

I've installed CCS 5.2.1.00018 (upgraded from 5.1.0, which I uninstalled first) for linux using the full installer. I installed all optional components to the default location.

Now whenever I try to create a new CCS project I can't. The new project dialog gives the error: "No build-tools are currently installed for this device-family. Please install the build-tools before creating a project for this device-family."

I'm using the C64xx multicore DSP and the tools seem to be installed correctly but CCS seems to disagree.

$ /opt/ti/ccsv5/tools/compiler/c6000_7.3.4/bin/cl6x --help | head -n 1
TMS320C6x C/C++ Compiler                v7.3.4

There are a few suspicious entries in the CCS Error Log including the following entry that was repeated several times:

An internal error was logged by 'com.ti.ccstudio.buildDefinitions.core'.

How can I diagnose this further?

  • Hi James,

    could you please send the full log.  Some further details might be helpful.

    - what brand of Linux?

    - did you install and launch all CCS components/compilers etc as root/sudo?

    I am a bit confused ... you say upgrade, however you also say you uninstalled your previous version?

    Best Regards,

  • Hi Lisa,

    I did uninstall 5.1.0 before installing 5.2.1, I just wanted to point out that I had an older version installed previously.

    I'm using ubuntu 10.04 64-bit (ia32-libs are installed).

    I installed CCS with sudo but was not running it with sudo. I just tried running it with sudo and I am able to create a new project without getting the "No build-tools are currently installed" error. I suppose I can work this way if necessary but I'm sure with 5.1.0 I installed with sudo (it was installed to /opt/ti...) and ran without sudo.

    I will take a look at the permissions of the files in /opt/ti and see if there is something I can do to get it working for my regular user account.

    Thanks,

    Jamie
