I have faced this error while compiling in last few days. it used to be fine. I do not know what I have done so it is now giving me this error. I have xtensa-lx106-nm in bin folder along with other tools!
I have tried to re-install the sdk and everything from scratch but it still gives this error while compiling esphttpd. it can successfully compile other projects such blinky etc.

any help would be much appreciated.

Is this the Makefile? If not (if it's a bit of bash you source in your session) you may want to change the lines that now are like A?=b into export A=b -like lines. Also, are your binaries really under /opt/Espressif/crosstool-NG/builds/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/? For example, does /opt/Espressif/crosstool-NG/builds/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/xtensa-lx106-nm exist?
