CUDA profiling error

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

Hello everyone,
I am trying to profile a complete C program in cuda profiler. when i am trying to lunch the exe program, cuda profiler shows the following error:
Application : “/home/…/…/…”.
Profiler data file ‘/home/…/…/temp_compute_profiler_0_0.csv’ for application run 0 not found.

My program is ok. Is it possible to profile a complete C program in cuda profiler? If yes then what is the problem?

Thank you.

Visual profiler is only useful for profiling CUDA or OpenCL applications. In case of profiling an application which does not make any kernel launches or memory transfer requests - this error is expected.
