CCS v6.0 Debug doesn't do anything, Properties->Debug gives "Error reading Debug Properties"

Matthew Krenik18

Hello,

I'm using Code Composer Studio 6.0 with the C2000 F28069 Experimenter's kit. I started with adapting the basic flashing leds example in control suite. I've built off this project, and every time I got to a robust, functional project, I copied the project over so that I have a backup. The last time I did this, I switched over to debug in FLASH because the code size increased past what is available in RAM. I am using the FLASH CMD file that was included in the original project. The project builds fine, but when I push debug, literally nothing happens. No error messages or warnings at all.

I've tried restarting CCS and trying again, but it doesn't change anything. I've tried running previous versions of the project that I have in my workplace, and they debug and run fine. It's only this new project that fails.

I wanted to look at the debug properties, but when I right click the project, click properties, and select "debug" I receive an error that says "Error reading Debug Properties".

Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

Thanks!

Best,

Matthew

An update: I installed CCS 6.1.2 and I'm experiencing the same issue. I also tested to see if I could debug the code on a different Experimenter's Kit board, and still the same issue.

Hi Matthew,
Would it be possible to provide the project? If you do not wish to share it publicly, send me a private message so we can discuss how to share it privately.

Thanks

Hi Ki, I sent you a private message with a link to the project. Please let me know what you find out.
Best,
Matthew

Thanks Matt, I got it. The issue is the "&" in the project name and the project folder name. If I rename the project and project folder to use an underscore instead, it works fine. CCS/Eclipse doesn't always play nice with what it considers "non-standard" characters.
