CCSv4.2.5.00005 IDE installation problems

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

Installation problems!

I wish to experiment with the new TMC4C123 development boards. So need to install IDE to support the ARM processors. Have been working with CCSv4.2.400033 using various MSP430 CPUs. IDE has been working very well.

 

Computer OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, 64bit, Service Pack 1.

Using Microsoft's uninstallation tool, CCSv4.2.4.00033 was uninstalled. After installing CCSv4.2.5.00005, the code generation tools do not exists. The directory "~\CCSv4\Tools" is not created.

CCSv4.2.5.00005 was uninstalled and version CCSV4.2.4.00033 was reinstalled. Now version CCSv4.2.4.00033 no longer has the code generation tools. Whatever is wrong is now effecting both installations.

I understand there are many log files in the "C:\Program Files(x86)\InstallJammer Registry".

(1) In order to redo a clean install of CCSv4.2.5.00005, should the InstallJammer Registry directory be completely deleted?

(2) How to clean out all CCS files on my computer so that I may install CCSv4.2.5.00005?

Below are some of the errors generated in the "CCSv4 Installation" log file

 

Error while executing: couldn't execute "install_images\ccscore\<%ECLIPSE_BASE_NAME%>.exe": no such file or directory

 

Error while executing: couldn't execute "R:\A_TI\DESIGN\_SUPPORT\CCS IDE 4.2.5\CCS4.2.5.00005_update\features\com.ti.ccstudio.product_4.2.5.00005\install_images\cgt\ti_cgt_msp430_3.3.3_setup_win32.exe": No error

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi,

    is there any reason you would not be able to try the latest version, v5.3?   I would recommend installing this to a new directory.

    If you really can only use v4, feel free to contact me offline and I will see about getting you a full installer for 4.2.5.

    Best Regards,
    Lisa

  • Lisa,

    How do I contact you off line?
          
          I would like to take you up on your offer to get a full installer      

    for 4.2.5. Is there a difference if I download it with either Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16540 or Foxfire 20.0.1 browser?
         
          My development IDE will need to support the MSP430 family and the       Stellaris LM4F120 & Tiva C Series TM4C123 ARM processors.
         
       
    In the meantime, I will try to delete all files associated with CCSv4.
           
         
    Have you found anyone who can tell me which files & directories & registry entries that need to be deleted?
         
          A quick response would be so very helpful. My development work has come to a agonizing halt.
         
          Again, Thanks in advance.
         
          Dick

  • Hi,

    usually we uninstall in a very manual way ... ie delete the installation tree.    No special registry removal etc.   You may want to clear the install logs in the installjammer registry directory (a potentially hidden folder in program files or program files(x86). 

    You can connect offline by using my ID which is a link for a friend/conversation request.

  • Hi,

    I just thought I would check for any udpates with your enquiry.   Hopefully all went well as I did not see any offline requests.

    Best Regards,
