IP address not registered in the port list for ESP32 S3 (Read 1158 times)

	Hello, while there is no issue with the IP registration in the port list for various ESP32 version, all my S3 versions seems to be not self registering. Is there a way to add it manually (at least) or any other way to make it work? Thx in advance for your guidance! Sebastien

	Thanks for the report, could you enable vMicro > Compiler > Verbose and rebuild the project and attach the log again? The IP Address can be manually entered into the port list box (Click into it, type the address, press Enter).

	I modified the log file. Was sure verbose was enabled, but... I tried to type in the port dropbox list and it finally worked. I understood that after typing the IP, you have to press ENTER. If you click outside you loose the entry. It's a detail but I missed it. about OTA, I checked it is working with espota.exe command. It also work with the upload from visual micro. The only thing missing is the auto registration in the drop box. A last point: is there a way to encode OTA the authentication somewhere? If you encode a wrong password, the upload stop to work as the password parameter stay wront up to the moment you close and reopen VS I think: ls\espota.exe -r -i "10.10.10.132" -p "3232" "--auth=" -f Pipe.ino.bin" Sending invitation to 10.10.10.132 The uploader process failed Authenticating...FAIL 12:09:58 [ERROR]: Authentication Failed

	Thanks for the update. We have uploaded the standard OTA Sketch to an ESP32S3 (UM PROS3) with the same ESP32 v2.0.17 package installed, and the IP Address showed up in the drop down as expected after about 10s. The Espota Upload uses the IP Address, wheras the drop down list discovery uses the MDNS protocol to identify the device. Does running Visual Studio as an Administrator make any difference? Do you have the Arduino IDE installed to see if the IP Address shows there?

	Hello, I was very surprised that this S3 appeared on my second computer (I have 2 licenses for my desktop and my laptop). The problem appears on the laptop only. same lan. FW disabled. What could be the reason for that? Sebastien

	I assume they are both running up to date vMicro versions? Is there any reason UDP Port 5353 would be blocked on the laptop (different AV/Firewall Software)?

	Does the machine which doesn't work have the Bonjour Service installed and running out of interest?

	No idea if the service lost interest, but rebooting didn't stimulate its appetite. But I found a solution. As it's W11 there is no "bonjour service". mDNS is built in the DNS client I suppose. And no obvious configuration option. BUT I installed the apple bonjour print service and it didn't improve the situation at all. So I uninstalled it and magic! It's working now! I cannot explain, but... hey there is a lot of things difficult to explain on Windows, isn't it?
