error: -image requires ROMS directive

Henning Christiansen

Hi,

I suddenly get this failure on all my projects, never seen it before.

My CCS version is: Version: 5.1.0.201206191800 Build id: N201206191800

Here is the output from the console: (no bin is created)

<Linking>
'Finished building target: M209.out'

**** Build Finished ****

I tried to fix the problem as suggested here. http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81/t/203800.asp

But with no luck. Any Ideas?

Henning,

Which suggestion ar you referring to? Did you try copying the mkhex4bin.exe and tiobj2bin.bat from the cg_xml package as referenced in this post, and that did not help?

If that did not help, could you please let us know if you have Perl installed, and if so, do you also have the Perl module PAR::Packer installed?

Hi,

Yes, I copied mkhex4bin.exe and tiobj2bin.bat from the cg_xml package, but I still get the same Error.

How can I see if Perl and the Perl module PAR is installed?

There is no reference to perl in the installation details (in Code Composer Studio about).

Regards

Henning

Perl is not installed as part of the CCS installation. I was wondering if it was installed separately on your PC.

No perl is not installed separately . The path from the console output (C:/Perl/lib/Archive/Zip.pm) does not exist.

The failure came suddenly 5-6 days ago.

Regards

Henning

Henning,

We had a thought that maybe your temp directory was full and may be causing a problem. Could you try emptying out the %TMP% directory to see if that helps. If that does not, I'm not really sure what else to suggest. Maybe I could try sending you the mkhex4bin.exe and tiobj2bin files from my installation offline just to make sure there still isn't a corrupted version laying around.

Emptying the %TMP% directory and reinstall of CCS solved the problem (maybe reinstallation was not necessary).

Thanks!

Which %TMP% directory do you mean? Or is it enough to paste it into Explorer?
