Hi,

I'm working with CCS7 and two evaluation boards, the MSP-EXP432E401Y and MSP-EXP432P401R. The CCS/ version is 7.4.0.00015

After an CCS update I always get this error when I try to debug a project:

CORTEX_M4_0: GEL Output: 
Memory Map Initialization Complete
CORTEX_M4_0: File Loader: Failed to initialize flash programming: Unknown property "FlashResetBeforeLoadSetting"
CORTEX_M4_0: GEL: File: C:\WG\Debug\WG.out: Load failed.

what is the problem?

thank you,

Tommaso

Tommaso,

Do you recall what updates you installed. In my CCSv7.4.0 I see these ones available

I am going through and installing the relevant ones 1 at a time to see if I can reproduce.

Regards,

John

Ok I was able to reproduce this on a different machine. Installed CCSv7.4.0 and then an update called "DS Flash".

I will see if I can resolve.

Regards,
John

Tommaso,

We have a temporary fix for this.

Find FlashPropertiesTranslator.xml in <ccs install dir>\ccs_base\DebugServer\propertyDB\

There is a line near the end
<partnum beginsWith="MSP432" msp432fet="true" />

Remove that line and save the file.

You should now be able to launch and flash ok. I have tried this on my machine and it resolved the issue for me.

Regards,
John
