Can't get code composer to work with MSP-FET430UIF

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-FET

I'm having trouble getting Code Composer to recognize my USB Debug interface. It works fine with IAR Embedded IDE, so I know the JTAG/SBW is working correctly, but I would like to use Code Composer to use grace. 

I created the example project of blinking the LED, which I just verified works with IAR. Here is the error I get when I click debug:



I'm using an evaluation license, not sure if that matters or not. 

There isn't a default .ccxml file, but when I create one, the only option it gives me as a debugger is "Data Snapshot Viewer". 
 

Here is the MSP-FET as it shows up in my devices:

 

If there's anything else I can provide to help someone to help me please let me know! Thanks in advance!

    Dru,

    The "Data Snapshot Viewer" connection shouldn't be the only one in the list... Do you know if this installation of CCS worked before?

    The reason of my question is because it seems you are missing several files in this install... Check the directory below and see if you find several XML files or just <DataSnapshotDecoder*.xml> there?

    <CCS_INSTALL_DIR>/ccsv5/ccs_base/common/targetdb/drivers

    This will surely indicate a problem with the installation (something went wrong or simply no emulator support was selected) or a possible HD corruption (where windows erased the existing files).

    In the first case you can potentially run the CCS installer and repair the existing install by selecting the same destination directory - unless updates were applied after the installation - in this case CCS is cautious and denies the repair procedure to avoid any major compatibility issues. In the second case, a reinstall will surely be required.

    Hope this helps,

    Rafael

    It's only when I filter by MSP430 that all of the other options go away. When I select "All ISA's" a lot of different options show up.

    and all of those files do show up in the drivers directory. Am I missing some?

    When you install CCS you can select what features you want (C2000, MSP430, Sitara, C6000 etc). It looks like you have installed C2000 only.

    Edit: This window:

    Thank you! I did a reinstall and chose all of the options. I am now able to debug!
