CCS: Code Composer Studio™ forum



Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I am trying to install CCS v9.3 for MSP430 on win7, 64bit. I install, succesfully. Then CCS asks to update two components, I do so. The next time I try to open CCS, I get the following error message. 

Please let me know how to fix. 

Also, please find attached zip file of the C:\ti\ccs930\ccs\install_logs folder.

  • We will take a look at the install logs. In the meantime, could you let us know if this was a fresh, new install of CCS 9.3 or updated to 9.3 from a previous version? Did it start up fine until some updates were installed, and do you recall which updates?

  • This is fresh install of CCS9.3.0.00012_win64 from the offline installer. No previous CCS install present. Win7/64bit virtual machine (Win 7 SP1). I fully install, CCS opens fine, first thing it does is say there's updates for:

    • GCC MSP430 tool-chain (v 9.2.0 / com.ti.msp430.gcc_support.feature.group)
    • TI MSP430 tool-chain (v9.2.1 / com.ti.msp430.build_debug.feature.group).

    After I install these two updates, CCS asks to restart, which I allow. As soon as it tries to re-open, I get the previously posted error message. 

    Another data-point. I have a dedicated Windows 10 (version 1909) 64bit laptop (no VM), and this problem does not happen with the same installer and update patches. 

  • Hi Evan,

    Could you please list the contents of the installdir's eclipse/downloads folder?

    Thanks,

  • Danish,

    Please see image of that directory:

  • Hi Evan,

    Please do the following:

    Double click on each of the ti_msp430* installers to run them manually. For the installation directory please enter c:\ti\ccs930\ccs. (If you run into any issues during the install, please send me the latest bitrock*log file from your %TEMP% folder)

    If they both run successfully, you can delete the contents of the eclipse/downloads folder.

  • Danish,

    Same behavior after installing manually. 

    Please find CCS logs and bitrock log attached.

  • Evan,

    Which of the ti_msp430* executables gave you the error? The bitrock*.log file is from the ccs_update executable. Did you run that as well?

    Thanks,

    Danish

  • Danish,

    Both of the ti_msp430* exe ran successfully to completion, but opening CCS still gives the original error, that's what I meant.

    Thanks,
    Evan

  • Did you delete the contents of the downloads folder after installing manually? 

  • I hadn't. I just did, and now CCS opens. Thanks!
