The ESP8266 branch is not loading the compiler correctly. #5

Closed JamesHagerman closed 8 years ago

JamesHagerman commented 9 years ago

First, I tried adding the SparkFun Board Manager json file mentioned on the ESP8266 tutorial and it didn't work correctly. (this is the broken link: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sparkfun/Arduino_Boards/esp8266/IDE_Board_Manager/package_sparkfun_index.json)

Because that didn't work, I downloaded this repo instead, switched to the ESP8266 branch, and copied the hardware directory to my Sketchbook's hardware directory. After that, I selected the ESP8266 Thing from the board menu, set up my FTDI port, copy and pasted the blink demo code, and hit compile.

It gave me this error: Cannot run program "{runtime.tools.xtensa-lx106-elf-gcc.path}/bin/xtensa-lx106-elf-g++" (in directory "."): error=2, No such file or directory

Thanks!

Oops! I just realized that I had a space in the Preferences panel's Board Manager text box. Apparently spaces mess the thing up! So, the tutorials json DOES work!

Still, this repo still seems to have an issue.

It works for you, so it's not clear w/o more information what the issue is. Do you have more details, so we can address the issue?
