Arduino 1.7.11 is from Arduino.org, not Arduino.cc (there were 2 separate Arduino companies for a while). The Arduino 1.7.x series had many issues in my experience. I recommend upgrading to Arduino 1.8 (the 2 companies have now reunited and this is the first joined release). If after upgrading you still see this error let me know. If not, then you can close this issue.

reopen if this is still an issue
