Hi,

I'm having a similar problem compiling. I'm getting the following error:

python.exe C:\PROGRA~2\Arduino\hardware\ESP826~1\esp8266/tools/espota.py -i "192.168.10.27" -p "8266" "--auth=" -f C:\Users\DAVID-~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VMICRO~1\BasicOTA\ESP826~1/BASICO~1.BIN
The system cannot find the file specified

The slashes in /tools/espota.py are the wrong way. Is there a fix for this?

Using VB Community 2015,

Thanks

Dave

Hi,

Windows supports slashes in both directions and many arduino configs use both Smiley

Questions

Is the python.exe folder in your windows PATH?

If you run this from command box does it work?

python.exe C:\PROGRA~2\Arduino\hardware\ESP826~1\esp8266/tools/espota.py -i "192.168.10.27" -p "8266" "--auth=" -f C:\Users\DAVID-~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VMICRO~1\BasicOTA\ESP826~1/BASICO~1.BIN

Does this file exist?

C:\PROGRA~2\Arduino\hardware\ESP826~1\esp8266/tools/espota.py

Does this file exist?

C:\Users\DAVID-~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VMICRO~1\BasicOTA\ESP826~1/BASICO~1.BIN
