When you try to have the CCS debugger connect to the target, what kind of error message do you see?

Thanks.

That error you see is a type of Host Connection Error. Basically the debugger is unable to communicate with the debug probe.

Please see the below troubleshooting steps for for the XDS200:

Hi,

I'm using Blackhawk USB2000, is there a procedure for this probe?

Opps, sorry. I was thinking 200, not 2000. The USB2000 is an XDS510 based debug probe. We don't have a special page for that since it is an obsolete debug probe. I may have one in the office I can try with my Linux VM. I will need to schedule a time to access my office. 

What Linux VM are you using? What is the Linux distro and the VM client? 

I'm using Oracle VM VirtualBox 6.0, running a Ubuntu 18.1 64 bit

Thanks for the support

I created an Ubuntu 18.04.1 VM using VirtualBox 6.0.20.

I then installed CCS 7.4.0 on the VM. 

I was able to connect to my C2000 target with my Blackhawk USB510L debug probe (which is very similar to the USB2000). I had no issues. I also tried using the "Blackhawk USB2000 Controller" connection and it also worked with my USB510L.

I'm not sure what the issues are on your end. I assume you resolved all the dependencies listed in:

https://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Host_Support_CCSv7#Ubuntu_18.04_LTS

and ran the driver install script mentioned in the above link?

Is so, can you confirm that your debug probe works in a non VM environment (Windows native host)?

Thanks

HI,

Tested also with this configuration, and I have already followed the link but the problem is still the same.

I'll keep doing some testing and I'll update on the result.

Thanks

Also, have you been able to use the USB2000 successfully in the past with that same Linux VM and CCS version?

Hi,

Yes the USB2000 is working under windows with same version of CCS. Is there a particular driver configuration that I might check if is the same with your setup? any particular "lsusb" output or anything else that I could verify?

My environment setup was extremely simple - I installed a clean Ubuntu 18.04.1 VM using VirtualBox 6.0.20. After installation, I did not run any updates. I then installed the dependencies mentioned in the wiki and then installed CCS v7.4.0. Then I ran the install_drivers.sh as sudo. Everything worked after that.

Hello Enrico,

I just wanted to follow up with you for your current status. Without a reproducible test case on our end, it will be very difficult to help resolve the issue. 

Thanks
