Debug error in CCS 6

Bogdan Teodorescu

I use Code Composer Studio Version: 6.0.0.00190 , free license. connected to Beaglebone Black with Debian Linux ENEF 3.8.13-bone41 #1 SMP Fri Mar 7 06:00:58 UTC 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

Everything is OK the compiled code runs OK, the remote connection shows the files, the processes and console is working great.

But for debug i got the error Error while launching command: gdb --version

The console output:

root@ENEF:~# chmod +x hellobone;gdbserver :2345 /root/hellobone;exit
Process /root/hellobone created; pid = 1308
Listening on port 2345

seems that the server is OK

The version is

root@ENEF:~# gdb --version
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.1-debian
and says that

gdb is already the newest version

Please advise what to do

Thank you

Bogdan,

I don't know how you configured CCS to launch the debugger, but the error message you sent indicates the settings on the debug configurations or on the .gdbinit file specify the option --version. Please check all the settings and see if they match what is provided in the SDK documentation.

A good reference is here:

Rafael

Hello

Thank you for the answer. I did not configured the debugger launch. I use gdb and a you can see the debugger is activated on target board and the server is listening on port 2345 but the local client has problems starting. I do not use a .gdbinit file.

Please advice how to change the debugger launch options, or how to set up a .gdbinit file (please an example file)

Thank you again

Bogdan

I found a way to get things on track by using the eclipse debuger instead of CCS default.

I'm getting the same error with "Error while launching command: gdb--version" , Can you elaborate on what you did or make a step by step tutorial? I really need CCS to work for a class I'm taking currently. Thank you in advance and any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
