CCSv4 DM6467 Debug Problem

I can not run the DM6467 debugger, it keeps giving me an error after the program is built and when the software is going to be "loaded" into the virtual board. I did a full install and those files do exist yet I still get the error. Any help is appreciated.

  • Hi Richard,

    Which version of CCS are you using? beta 5.1?

    Which simulator target are you trying to use? DM6467 HD VICP Function Simulator?

    Thanks

    ki

  • Code Composer Studio
     Version: 4.0.0.200905051500
     Build id: N200905111800

     

    And yes, that is the target I am using.

  • I believe that is Beta 5.1 (version numbers are a little messed up with 5.1).

    I seem to be able to launch a debug session with that simulator configuration.

    Could you export and attach your error log? You get get it from: View->Other->PDE Runtime->Error Log

    Thanks

    That should be it.

  • Richard,

    How are you starting your debug session? Are you using "Debug Active Project"? If so, could you try launching a debug session using "Launch TI debugger" or "Launch Selected Configuration" (see: http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_ccstudio/CCSv4/Demos/ccs4-setup1_b5.htm)?

    Thanks

  • That was how I was starting the debug session. I did try the ways you suggested and I am continuing to receive the same error. Is this something that uninstalling and reinstalling could fix or is there possibly something on my PC right now that could be causing a problem?

  • Strange... the error log indicated some unrelated problems with managed make and using debug active session.

    Before doing a reinstall, can you try some of the steps indicated here:

    http://tiexpressdsp.com/index.php/Troubleshooting_CCS

    It has been known to clear up some "strange" behavior with CCS.

    Thanks

  • I tried reinstalling and had the same issue, I then did everything that was suggested in the link you posted with no luck. I also had this problem on another computer, I will try to keep working on it on my own as well as hopefully continuing to get help from you.

     

    It will run when I tell it to run on an ARM9e, but it still will not run on the DM6467.

  • After further experimentation I was able to discover that the code would run on other target platforms like the ARM 9e little endian device, however it still will not run on the DM6467. Is there anyway to reinstall the DM6467 target device or something similar to get this working?

     

    The DSP 6 Hello World program will run on the DM6446 but trying to run it on the DM6467 gives the same error as I have shown. It appears to be a problem with the DM6467 files or simulator and that only as everything else seems to work fine.

     

  • There must be some issue in your environment with the DM6467 sim csp that comes with v4. I have sent the issue to someone more familiar with the simulator and will get back to you when i have some answers

    ki

  • Ok, thank you very much. I will continue my efforts to get it working on my own as well, and if I do I will be sure to post up how I did it. I am also considering a full reinstall of Windows then installing CCSv4 fist to make sure nothing on the computer is interfering with it.

  • Richard,

             We managed to reproduce the issue. The problem is due to some packaging issue b\c of that some dlls are missing in the package. I have attached the files, extract & copy them to <CCSV4 installation folder>\ccsv4\simulation_csp_dm6467\env\ccs\drivers.  This should solve the bring-up issue.

    We have fixed some critical bugs in DM6467 simulator,  so when CCSv4 RTM is released, upgrade your CCSv4 installations.

    Regards,

    Mani

  • Ok, I copied the files to where you told me to and whenever I try to run the simulation no CCS just quits and this error message is shown:

     

    I don't know what this means but it seems to be a Java problem. Any more help is apreciated.

  • We are not able to reproduce the crash in our test. Can you send the crash log along with "sim_integration.log" file? "sim_integration.log" file is located at "<CCSv4 install folder>\ccsv4\simulation_csp_dm6467\env\ccs\drivers".

    Regards,

    Mani

  • I was able to fix it myself by reinstalling CCSv4 and putting those same files in the directory you listed. Thanks for yoiur help with this.
