This is probably because you have the PlatformLinux selected and it is trying 
to connect to the current host linux in order to debug your program.

If you don't have any specific platform needs (no special needs in locating 
files, executables, upload/download files, etc) then you probably want no 
platform plug-in selected, or make one up for VLIW. You are having trouble 
launching because the local linux platform is selected and it is trying to 
debug your program on the current linux host. 

When you create a target TargetList::CreateTarget() is called. It will try and 
find an platform that goes with your executable and the triple you specified. 
You want to step through this code and make sure that when 
"PlatformLinux::CreateInstance()" is called, that it doesn't claim it is the 
appropriate platform for your executable.

To work around the issues above, first you want to launch lldb (or "target 
create") with a full triple:

lldb --arch vliw-unknown-unknown /home/chandra/app01/workplace/app.elf

Then you can specify the process plug-in to use:

(lldb) process connect --plugin gdb-remote connect://localhost:51000

If you specify the "gdb-remote" plug-in by name, you won't end up trying to 
launch with the "ProcessLinux" plug-in which doesn't support remote 
connections. It will use the ProcessGDBRemote plugin.

Let me know if this help/works.
