CCS/MSP432P401R: TI Cloud Agent Problems with Ubuntu 17.04

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi All,

I'm attempting to get CCS Cloud to flash an MSP432 launchpad on Ubuntu 17.04.  I hit the install button on the popup, and it appeared to work, but though the "install" button disappeared, the popup still popped up with the Download button.  I read the "But I already installed this" page, and nothing there solved the issue.  I did the download, and then did a chmod 755 and ran the .run file, and let it go into my home directory.  This didn't work, so I moved the TICloudAgent folder to ~/.ti/, but that gave me this error:

The file it complain about is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<d:error xmlns:d="DAV:" xmlns:a="http://ajax.org/2005/aml">
    <a:exception>jsDAV_Exception_FileNotFound</a:exception>
    <a:message>File at location /home/toroide/ccs-cloud-storage-temp/ide/rob.frohne@wallawalla.edu/default/2017 VNA/targetConfigs/MSP432P401R.ccxml not found</a:message>
<a:jsdav-version>0.2.6</a:jsdav-version>
</d:error>

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rob

  • Hi All,

    A little more info.  When I select the menu item Target-Connect to COM Port, I get this:

    Does this give us any hints?

    Thanks,

  • Hi All,

    I just noted that this is actually a problem with the specific project. Others build and flash fine. I can build and flash this one fine in the local Code Composer Studio; it builds fine in CCS Cloud, but will not flash there. The project is available at github here:
    github.com/.../2017-VNA
    I just use Git->Clone a repo, then right click on the imported repo and select Import CCS Project.

    Any ideas are appreciated. My students will want to build this project on the cloud.

    Thanks,

    Rob
  • I may have forgotten to plug in the MSP432 launchpad on the above. I discovered it works now.

  • I just ran through this sequence. You shouldn't have to move the TI CloudAgent install. For me I install the browser extension and then download the Agent. Like you I had to update the permissions on the Agent before I could run the installer. Part way through it asks me for my sudo password so that it can install the drivers.

    When I hit refresh then the dialog goes away and I can attempt to launch the debug session. I did hit an issue doing this. I had the LaunchPad plugged in the whole time. I got an error message about the firmware when I launched the debug session. I had to unplug and replug the LaunchPad to get that error to go away and the it prompted me to update the firmware and everything worked fine. So there is an issue here.
