Error loading board. #10

Closed phillip-toone closed 8 years ago

phillip-toone commented 8 years ago

I tried going through your example video and encounter the following problems.

At 10:08 when I open the kicad project I note that the following files are not listed as part of the project: RGB LED 1.4.lib RGB LED 1.4.net RGB LED 1.4-cache.lib

At 11:52 when I run CvPcb to associate the components and footprints I get the following error message: "No PCB footprint libraries are listed in the current project file."

At 12:26 when I open pcbnew I get the following error message: "Error loading board. PARSE_ERROR: Expecting 'number' in input/source "/home/user/RGB LED 1.4.kicad_pcb", line 67, offset 23 from /build/buildd/kicad-0.20131208+bzr4024/common/dsnlexer.cpp : Expecting() : line 285"

I think I've discovered that my problem was that I was using an older version of KiCad (~2013). I've updated to the latest version of KiCad and now everything seem to work flawlessly.

Hi Phillip, thanks for the info, They are quite a few bugs out there, I have found, so pays to try a few version's of KiCad or even Eagle ! I'm Glad the script is working :)
