Trouble compiling #10

Closed NGwpower closed 9 years ago

NGwpower commented 9 years ago

New to programing, tried running on Arduino Uno, removed it repeatedly with no access. Followed instructions and still get this message:

I took your long error message out of the subject line and gave this thread a more appropriate subject line. For reference, the original subject line was:

Arduino: 1.6.4 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino Uno"  C:\Program Files\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr/bin/avr-g++ -c -g -Os -Wall -Wextra -fno-exceptions -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fno-threadsafe-statics -MMD -mmcu=atmega328p -DF_CPU=16000000L -DARDUINO=10604 -DARDUINO_AVR_UNO -DARDUINO_ARCH_AVR -IC:\Program Files\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\cores\arduino -IC:\Program Files\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\variants\standard C:\Users\RJEA26~1.STA\AppData\Local\Temp\build2119754585980147342.tmp\sketch_.cpp -o C:\Users\RJEA26~1.STA\AppData\Local\Temp\build2119754585980147342.tmp\sketch_.cpp.o  
sketch_.ino:1:36: fatal error: DualVNH5019MotorShield.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated.
Error compiling.

The main thing you should be looking at here is "DualVNH5019MotorShield.h: No such file or directory". This means that the Arduino IDE is not finding the library. You most likely installed the library incorrectly, and you should retry the instructions here. Be sure to restart the Arduino IDE.

We use GitHub issues to discuss problems or improvements to the code. If you continue to have trouble using the library, please post on our forum instead of here. If you believe you have installed the library correctly but things are still not working, your forum post should include detailed information about your setup and exactly how you installed the library, including screenshots and full paths to the various files you installed.

Thank You for redirecting my post. What is it on the Polulu form? RJ

You would need to log in to the forum and write a new post.

The Arduino forum gave me a zip file that worked, so have a good week.
