- Wed Feb 18, 2015 1:57 pm #10110 I've given this a bunch of goes. Tried on my mac, on ubuntu virtual machines. And no luck.

I've followed the instructions here.. https://github.com/pfalcon/esp-open-sdk

changed my paths

but i get this error. I can build the examples just fine, as well as node-mcu?

- Wed Feb 18, 2015 5:50 pm #10123 I am getting exactly the same error

- Fri Feb 20, 2015 8:50 pm #10299 I ran into the same problem. As part of the environment setup, the c_types.h file in the sdk include directory is replaced. The old file is left in the directory as c_types.h.orig. The new file removes the definition for uint32_t and a bunch of other types. I don't know why this was done and it may break something else, but restoring the original c_types.h file allowed me to compile.

somehow, a fresh installation (try number 4) and git clone from the spritserver NOT the github repository bjpirt, seemed to compile without errors...

unfortunately hit another hurdle to do with the esptool....

now i realise that there are two esptools... but can't find reference to the other one. Are they both to flash?

I can't for the life of me get this stuff to work on my mac, so its all in an ubuntuVM.

I need the binaries to just be put into a directory, but unfortunately there is nothing there..
