CCS and DDRv validation can only connect as root, not as regular Linux user

tiagobrusamarel — Mon, 28 Nov 2016 12:52:56 GMT

Hello!

When I try to use the DDR validation tool under Linux I can't get any target connection when running CodeWarrior as a regular Linux user. It only works if I run CW as root. A similar symptom occurs when trying to access the CCS server console. I can't issue any command when running as a regular user, but it works fine when running as root.

Could anyone help me with this issue?

I guess it's related to Linux (udev) permissions. I tried everything I know, from reinstalling the CW software, the USB script udev rules, etc. My OS is Ubuntu 14.04.1.

Regards,

Tiago.

Try installing CW as regular user in user home.

Installer says that I must be logged as root to proceed...

Sudo rights are necessary for installing the dependencies and USB drivers. Try to use regular user, but using sudo ./setuplinux.sh (gksudo`/`gksu ./setuplinux.sh for graphical mode).

It doesn't even start the installer.

Sorry, my mistake. I was running 'setuplinux.sh' instead of 'setuplinux'.

Still installing at '/opt/Freescale' with root credentials.

From installation wizard you can set the installation path to be in your user home. Installing in /opt/Freescale sudo is necessary to be used when starting CW.

No way. After installing in home folder I still not able to connect to target as a regular user. Only works when running as root.

Do you install as root, or as regular user with sudo permissions?

I've tried both methods. None worked for me.
