#72683 Hi All,

while compiling following code I am getting this error and unable to resolve,
I tried to run this code in run as administrator and restarted the arudino IDE and os then tried but no luck...
please any one help us on this will be very helpful for me

Error:
Arduino: 1.8.4 (Windows 10), Board: "Generic ESP8266 Module, 80 MHz, 40MHz, DIO, 115200, 512K (64K SPIFFS), ck, Disabled, None"

exit status 1
Error compiling for board Generic ESP8266 Module.

This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.


Code:
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>

const char* ssid = "your-ssid";
const char* password = "your-password";

int ledPin = 2; // GPIO2
WiFiServer server(80);

void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
delay(10);


pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);

// Connect to WiFi network
Serial.println();
Serial.println();
Serial.print("Connecting to ");
Serial.println(ssid);

WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.println("WiFi connected");

// Start the server
server.begin();
Serial.println("Server started");

// Print the IP address
Serial.print("Use this URL to connect: ");
Serial.print("http://");
Serial.print(WiFi.localIP());
Serial.println("/");

}

void loop() {
// Check if a client has connected
WiFiClient client = server.available();
if (!client) {
return;
}

// Wait until the client sends some data
Serial.println("new client");
while(!client.available()){
delay(1);
}

// Read the first line of the request
String request = client.readStringUntil('\r');
Serial.println(request);
client.flush();

// Match the request

int value = LOW;
if (request.indexOf("/LED=ON") != -1) {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
value = HIGH;
}

digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
value = LOW;
}

// Set ledPin according to the request
//digitalWrite(ledPin, value);


// Return the response
client.println("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
client.println("Content-Type: text/html");
client.println(""); // do not forget this one
client.println("<!DOCTYPE HTML>");
client.println("<html>");

client.print("Led pin is now: ");

if(value == HIGH) {
client.print("On");
} else {
client.print("Off");
}
client.println("<br><br>");
client.println("Click <a href=\"/LED=ON\">here</a> turn the LED on pin 2 ON<br>");
client.println("Click <a href=\"/LED=OFF\">here</a> turn the LED on pin 2 OFF<br>");
client.println("</html>");

delay(1);
Serial.println("Client disonnected");
Serial.println("");

#73559 Experienced the same problem fot more than a week.
This is what I came up with, it's been TESTED and allows sketch to be compiled, on version 2.1.
However, it seems to raise another problem, on version 2.4.

1) Download/extract Arduino core for ESP8266 WiFi chip, Arduino-Master.zip.
2) Install into esp8266com folder, as by instructions, READ THE DOC.
3) Go to the Tools directiory, click on Get.py.

Install is complete.

Try to compile with your current configuration, if it works OK, if not try downgrading the Esp8266 version in the Board Manager, repeat until you get a successful compile.

Now I can't connect to WiFi, another problem.
