Sketches not working on esp8266-01 (SOLVED)

[gubagu]

Marvin man fuckin' amzing project, and the heavy lifting you've done WOW !!!

I run the Homi server it worked just out of the box. Connected it to my MQTT broker - everything worked out of the box. Then I installed the example code on on of my esp8266-01 and nothing happened. It did not create AP as it is said in the getting started manual and the serial had also nothing to say. Once i got some error stack output but that was once.

What could it be?

Tell me if you need additional info on the issue.

Thanks in advance man.

@benzino77 will try and let you know. Cheerz mate

Activate Logging to Serial in the setup() function.

Serial.begin(115200);
homie.setLogging(true);

See, if there are any error messages when booting ConfigurationMode.

Hey @benzino77 here is the output when trying to compile :

Arduino: 1.6.10 (Windows 10), Board: "NodeMCU 0.9 (ESP-12 Module), 80 MHz, 115200, 4M (1M SPIFFS)"

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino_modified_sketch_360\LightOnOff.ino: In function 'void setup()':

LightOnOff:24: error: 'class HomieInternals::HomieClass' has no member named 'disableLedFeedback'

   Homie.disableLedFeedback(); // before Homie.setup()
         ^

exit status 1
'class HomieInternals::HomieClass' has no member named 'disableLedFeedback'

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

The documentation linked above is for the upcoming v2. The current documentation is there: https://github.com/marvinroger/homie-esp8266/blob/v1.5.0/docs/9.-Troubleshooting.md :)

@marvinroger this got me little bit further...

Tried the LightOnOff sketch with Homie.enableLogging(true) & Homie.enableBuiltInLedIndicator(false) on two different esp8266 modules. With the same result. Have a look @ the pic. On one of them the CH_PAD and the vcc are shortened. Forgot to mention red led is ON. Blue led is dead.

• Format your SPIFFS:

#include "FS.h"

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.println("");
  delay(1000);
  Serial.println("Mounting FS...");

  if (!SPIFFS.begin()) {
    Serial.println("Failed to mount file system");
    return;
  }

  if (!SPIFFS.format()) {
    Serial.println("Failed to format");
  } else {
    Serial.println("File system formatted");
  }
}

void loop() {
}

• Flash the following Homie sketch:

#include <Homie.h>

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.println();
  Serial.println();
  Homie.enableBuiltInLedIndicator(false);
  Homie.disableResetTrigger();
  Homie.setFirmware("test", "1.0.0");
  Homie.setup();
}

void loop() {
  Homie.loop();
}

Does your serial monitor print something then?

Hey there, Both sketches have the same result - the same as in my previous post. Interestingly the FS is not working that's weird. Any other library or sketch from the examples and the ones i write work just fine. My module is has the ESP8266EX chip.

[clough42]

@gubagu It looks like you're compiling for an ESP12 module with a 4MB (32Mb) flash chip. Most ESP-01 modules come with either 512KB (4Mb) or 1MB (8Mb) flash.

I had a similar problem until I switched board definitions to a 512KB ESP01.

Hey @clough42 indeed that was it ! Thanks a bunch !
