Error while building & debugging LED blinking project

Hello everyone,

I am new to the MSP430. I have just bought one to help my sister build an automated home gardening display for a science exhibition.

I have installed the CCS (Version 5.4.0.00091) on Windows 7 (32-bit) and I have tried the first LED blinking project.

But, it seems that I am having the same problem that many here had:

**** Build of configuration Debug for project Temp ****

"D:\\\\ccsv5\\utils\\bin\\gmake" -k all
'C:\Users\ZAK' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The system cannot find the path specified.
gmake: *** [blink.obj] Error 1
gmake: Target `all' not remade because of errors.

**** Build Finished ****

I have tried their many solutions, but with no success.

While debugging, the message that pops up is:

Load program error: Encountered a problem loading file: D:/Launchpad_Projects/Temp/Debug/Temp.out

Could not open file.

Your help would be greatly welcomed.

Thanks

  • Hi Zakhir,

    the issue seems to be the link between C and D ... either permissions or not good handling by ccs/eclipse.   Please try keeping all on C: and keep us informed.  I think you will see better results.

  • Hi Lisa,

    Thanks for the prompt. Actually, the administrator account on my laptop was "Zak & Naw". (My wife's name is Nawsheen)

    It seems that CCS was not recognizing the space or the "&" in the folder name. 

    I uninstalled CCS, created another administrator account (without any spaces or special characters in the name), and re-installed CCS.

    It works fine now!

    Thanks again.

    Kind regards,

    Zakhir

  • Hi Zakhir,

    Best Regards,
