Hi,

Maybe you were using the trial version of visual micro and the trial has now expired.

The latest release of Visual Micro has this feature in the free version so maybe an upgrade of Visual Micro will sort it out for you.

I can see you have purchased and activated so maybe you updated windows and lost the activation. What does it say in tools>options>visual micro>application features>license key

Great.

So please send a screen shot of the vMicro menu when your project is open for edit.

Thanks

Thanks for the update. That's strange. 

Is it possible the solution node or some unrelated file was open in the ide previously? Were you able to build?

Thanks

The error suggests that the esp tool could not be discovered below C:\Users\gnkarn\AppData\Local\arduino15\packages\esp8266\tools

Please switch on verbose and show build properties

Then click rebuild and email the output as a .txt file

Thanks


the error is as follows. Anything in {brackets} can't be resolved

Process: "{runtime.tools.esptool.path}\esptool.exe"

Thanks for the email.

It's failing to discover the tools you have installed. It must be hitting an exception when looking for the tools because there are 4 found when there should be more depending on what you have installed.

I will look at producing some better messages or ignoring errors so you don't get this problem. 

Please open the micro explorer > board manager and press rescan. Does that fix it?

If it doesn't fix it then rename C:\Users\gnkarn\AppData\Local\arduino15\packages and then click rescan or restart the ide. Renaming the folder will allow you to reinstall the packages such as esp8266 then click recan or restart the ide. 

Have you added or removed any packages with any board manager recently?

Thanks

Okay, I think the definitions had been cleared. If you open the board manager in the arduino it can do that.

When you get errors it's best to switch on vmicro>compiler>verbose and "show build properties". Then try the operation and then copy the output into a new text file.

Attach the text file to a post or email it. The output shows what settings you have selected, there are quite a few for the esp boards where as other boards are simpler.

OTA ip address only appears if apple bonjour is installed. bonjour can be weak sometimes

The OTA ip will also only show if you have OTA configured in your code.

You don't need the IP address in the ports list and don't need apple bonjour. 

You can create a local board.txt in the project folder and add network logon info such as network.port=8266. You can then manually enter the IP address in the visual micro "port list" box.

Checkout the esp8266 guide on visualmicro.com for more info.
