Code Composer 6 Install Failure on Ubuntu 14.04

Otto Schnarr14

Hi,

I'm trying to get Code Composer 6 installed on Ubuntu 14.04. I've followed the directions from the wiki but after calling the installer the program just returns to the shell. I have installed the 32 bit libraries mentioned in the wiki.

Are there other dependencies that I am missing?

Thanks!

Hi Otto,

You will probably need the libgcrypt (version 1) libs as well, both 32 and 64 bit.

32 bit:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_i386.deb

64 bit:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libgcrypt11_1.5.3-2ubuntu4.2_amd64.deb

That looks strange on my pc - hope it looks okay to you... Anyway, you want libgcrypt.so.11 off launchpad...

Thanks S.A.

I believe I have those installed as well.

otto@AFLAB2369297:~/Downloads/CCS$ aptitude search '?narrow(?installed,libgcrypt)'
i   libgcrypt11                     - LGPL Crypto library - runtime library     
i   libgcrypt11:i386                - LGPL Crypto library - runtime library

There must be some other library missing. Those were installed via apt, is it necessary to use the linked launchpad files vs what is in apt?

So I did some more messing around and looked at the help options from the .bin. I noticed that there is a --mode option that allows you to select text. xwindow, or gtk.

When I selected any of those options I would get a wizard. However no text was displayed for the questions. Included below is what was output to the terminal when I selected text mode for the install:

otto@AFLAB2369297:~/Downloads/CCS$ ./ccs_setup_6.1.0.00104.bin --mode text
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 [/tmp]:

At that point I canceled the installer because I have no idea how to answer those blank questions. I also tried to download CCS5 to see if that would result in similar problems. CCS5's installer seems to be made slightly different, but also fails.

otto@AFLAB2369297:~/Downloads/CCS5$ ./ccs_setup_5.5.0.00077.bin

Hope these new discoveries might help find a solution!

Hi Otto,

The installer does not run in text mode. Could you please set your display and try the install again. If it exits, please take a look at the /tmp folder and look for bitrock*log files, zip them up and post them here.

I have seen the installer silently exit if the 32-bit version of glibc isn't installed - see ccs_setup_6.0.0.00175.bin silently exits on CentOS 6.5 64-bit if glibc.i686 or libX11.i686 not installed

Also, running the installer under strace may reveal why the installer silently exists.

Danish,

It looks like it does:

                                Allowed: gtk xwindow text unattended

bitrock_installer.log.zip

I've attached the bitrock_installer.log. Looking at the log it seems to default to unattended mode for installation. The --help seems to confirm this. When I select --mode gtk I get a Setup wizard however all the questions are Yes/No with no dialog as to what I am answering until it asks me for a directory which defaults to /tmp(again not telling me what the directory is to be used for. Similar to my previous post of the textmode install.

Thanks for the suggestions Danish, hope the logs help resolve this.

Just a final update. I believe I have the installer working now.

It may be useful to add to the FAQ to check how /tmp is mounted. I saw that you could use --temp to select a different tmp directory, but that does not seem to work well. I suppose that is also why Danish mentioned that text mode was not valid.

Looking at /tmp I noticed it was mounted noexec.

otto@AFLAB2369297:~/Downloads/CCS$ sudo mount -o remount exec /tmp

After this the installer GUI came up just fine. I'll mark this reply as the answer once the installer finishes.

Thanks for all the help!

Hi,

Thanks for the information. I'll open a bug regarding the --temp option and also to test for noexec tmp folders.
