The installer for CCS 5.2.1.00018 causes Windows to prompt me to add a firewall exception for the Java included in the Eclipse install (ti\ccsv5\eclipse\jre\bin\java.exe). It does this whether I choose a silent install, use a response file, or just run the installer normally. It doesn't really seem to affect the install in any way though. I can ignore the prompt and the install will carry on, and canceling it doesn't cause any issues.
I've tried the CCS 5.1.0.09000 installer I have and confirmed it does not do this.
Is there any way to prevent this prompt? I'm trying to setup an automated install for package deployment in our environment, and when the silent install is run as SYSTEM it proceeds to a certain point and then just seems to hang. I'm wondering if this prompt is causing it.
One option you have is to add a firewall exception for Java. For Windows XP (you didn't say which Windows you were using, so you may need to modify the procedure for other variants), you can open the security center, select the windows firewall settings, and add an exception for C:\ti\ccsv5\eclipse\jre\bin\java.exe. XP won't let you add an exception for a file that doesn't exist, so you may find you need to create a dummy file at that location first, add the exception, and delete the folder tree.
I'm not sure if the firewall prompt is causing the hang. Best to give this a try. If still see the installer hanging, requesting the installer log would be the next thing.
The CCSv5.1 installer worked a bit differently in that it used InstallJammer for most of the operations. V5.2.x mostly uses Eclipse. This is probably why you see a difference between the two.
