Firmware upload error

[Anonymous]

In uploading the firmware I am running into an error reading:

Arduino: 1.6.4 (Mac OS X), Board: “Arduino Uno”

firmware_ams.ino:142:43: fatal error: AFMotorDrawbot/AFMotorDrawbot.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Error compiling.

This report would have more information with
“Show verbose output during compilation”
enabled in File > Preferences.

does anyone know what is causing this ?

Many thanks in advance

Some versions of Arduino software do treat the command #include <> the same as the rest.

You’ll have to move the two ./AFMotorDrawbot/AFMotorDrawbot.* files to ./ and change the line that says

#include

to

#include

[Anonymous]

Can you be just a touch more specific..

where is ./ ?

and are #include and #include not the same thing?

[Dan]

./ means “this folder”. In this case, I assume you are looking at [some drive]/[some folders]/firmware_ams

ok my files are set up as follows:

documents/arduino/makelangelo-firmware/firmware_ams

in firmware_ams I have :
Adafruit_MotorShield (folder)
AFMotorDrawbot (folder)
firmware_ams.no
vector3.h

from this tell me how to reconfigure. I still do not understand your instructions

[Dan]

take the

documents/arduino/makelangelo-firmware/firmware_ams/AFMotorDrawbot/AFMotorDrawbot.*

files and move them to

documents/arduino/makelangelo-firmware/firmware_ams/AFMotorDrawbot.*

When I do this I still get this message:

Arduino: 1.6.4 (Mac OS X), Board: “Arduino Uno”

firmware_ams.ino:142:43: fatal error: AFMotorDrawbot/AFMotorDrawbot.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Error compiling.

Please get the latest firmware from the website. I moved files to solve this problem for you.

Thanks Dan,

Though after updating I now run into this error:

thank you for your help

[Dan]

Somehow AFMotorDrawbot has been added to your Arduino libraries, tho it should not be. Please delete the

/Users/austinredman/Documents/Arduino/libraries/AFMotorDrawbot

folder and its contents.

great, looks like that did the trick.

Thanks again Dan
