CCS/AM4376: "...recipe for target 'clean' failed"

Is there more information than that printed in the build console? If so, could you provide the complete text please?

Would you mind attaching your CCS project files (.*project) and makefile? You could put them all into a zip file and attach that here.

Hi,

The CCS project files (.*project) and makefile are attached.

0211.files.zip

This is the console output:

**** Clean-only build of configuration Debug for project prj_am4376 ****

Nothing stands out immediately in the makefile, but does the project build successfully in spite of the above message?

I can actually reproduce this using the latest version of CCS v7.3. It seems specific to SYS/BIOS projects. What I observed is that the first attempt to "Clean project" after a "Build Project" does not result in this error message. However a second attempt to "Clean Project" generates this message.

I will file a bug report to have this looked at. However the message itself does not impact the build process so you can ignore the message for now. 

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
