Unable to detect the floating server license when running CCS in the server PC itself

Chandrahas,

Unfortunately I don't know what may be happening in your setup - it may be something specific to the system or to the older CCS release you are using.

Apart from the raw IP address, you could check if using "localhost" is effective. Also, you can open a command line and run the command "ping 127.0.0.1" or "ping localhost" and see if you get a response - my guess is that it will work fine. If not, then check the thread below:

http://www.moorlandit.net/index.php/2009/05/accessing-localhost-on-vistawindows-7-96/

When you open CCS and launch a debug session with one of the JTAG debuggers that require a license (anything other than a XDS100), do you see a license checked out from the server, as shown in the screen below?

If you see this, then it is possible some configuration is blocking CCS from receiving the information from the license server. If you don't see this, then CCS is not able to talk to the license server. In both cases I would be suspicious of the firewall or any corporate IT rule that blocks these accesses.

In any case, you can also open a command line and run "netstat" to see which ports are opened and connections are established. In my case, I get the results below, with the two connections in red between CCS and the license server.

Unfortunately I am running out of ideas in this case, but please check the diagnostic methods above.

Hope this helps,

Hello Rafael,

I have tried  "ping localhost" and "ping 127.0.0.1" commands and they are success with 0% loss in packets.

Opened CCS in the server and launched  JTAG debugging.

In link :

http://127.0.0.1:8090/dashboard?licenseTab=floating&vendor=tidspssw&admin=systeminfo&selected=

I can see "0(1)" for  "In use(Available)" column for CCS DEBUGGER feature.

Also in CCS->Help->Code Composer Studio Licensing Information->Status, License Type  is  still shown as Evaluation License.

I have run "netstat" command and the i got the following :
