Exit status 1, Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Uno. [Solved!]

[franpernice]

I just got my Arduino and have almost no experience with it. I bought a beginners book with some C coding basics and several Arduino projects to get started. I am in my fifth project (a set of 10 LED's that turn on and off in a sequence) and, for the first time, I am getting a compiling code error that I cannot figure out how to solve. This is my code:


//proyect 5 - LED Chase Effect
byte ledPin[] = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13};
//create array for LED pins
int ledDelay(65);
//delay between changes
int direction = 1;
int currentLED = 0;
unsigned long changeTime;

void setup() {
 for (int x=0; x<10; x++)
 {  //set all pins to output
   pinMode(ledPin[ x ]. OUTPUT);
 }
 changeTime = millis();
}

void loop(){
 if((millis() - changeTime) > ledDelay) {
   //if it has been ledDelay ms since last change
   changeLED();
   changeTime = millis();
 }
}

void changeLED(){
 for (int x=0; x<10; x++)
 { //turn off all LED's
   digitalWrite(ledPin[ x ], LOW);
 }
 digitalWrite(ledPin[currentLED], HIGH);
 //turn on the current LED
 currentLED += direction;
 //increment by the direction value
 //change direction if we reach end
 if (currentLED == 9)
 {direction = -1;}
 if (currentLED == 0)
 {direction = 1;}
}


And this is the error that I get:

exit status 1
Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Uno.



How can I solve this?


Thanks for the help!

And this is the error that I get:

exit status 1
Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Uno.

That is not the complete error because it should give you the line number of the error.

Please read the post by Nick Gammon at the top of this Forum about the proper way to post code using code tags. Also, before posting, use Ctrl-T in the IDE to reformat your code into a standard style. These changes will help us help you.

[ChrisTenone]

You have a period where a comma should be:

Code: [Select]


...
pinMode(ledPin[ x ]. OUTPUT);
...


[sterretje]

Except for using code tags. the following

Place your cursor in the output window, scroll up and look at ALL orange lines to determine what goes wrong. Copy and paste them here.

Code: [Select]

Although one usually handles errors from top to bottom, in this case you have to turn it around and have a look at the 'pinMode' line. Hint: pinMode takes two arguments, you only pass it one.

[franpernice]

ChrisTenone, you solved the problem! I had a dot instead of a comma here:
...
pinMode(ledPin[ x ]. OUTPUT);
...

Stupid mistake, but it wasn't showing up in the error window, I don't know why. Anyways, thanks for the help!

[sterretje]

It deos show up in the error window as I showed in reply #4

You can NOT use SoftwareSerial and GSM at the same time.

Hi George, please do not hijack someone else's thread.  Start your own and read the guidelines.
Thanks.

Using Arduino 1.8, uninstalled and re-installed Arduino

6 core, 16 gig RAM, 4k monitor, 8 gig video. Windows 10, McAafee .

just purchased 2 Adruino UNO (not clone or knock offs, original)

getting the following error when trying to verify (or compile) the "blink" program

or any other one as well.


A-HA, THE ISSUE IS THE McAfee VIRUS DETECTION PROGRAM
TURNED IT OFF AND EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT

Howzit guys I am having the same problem. tried everything here but no luck getting it to work. Any advice???

I am using an Arduino Uno R3 and an Elecfreaks CANBUS shield.

I am not sure whats going on whether I need to upload another library (got the code off a site where they used a sparkfun CANBUS shield)


My code is as follows:

#include <Canbus.h>   // don't forget to include these
 #include <defaults.h>
 #include <global.h>
 #include <mcp2515.h>
 #include <mcp2515_defs.h>

void setup() {

   Serial.begin(9600);     // For debug use
   Serial.println("CAN Read - Testing receival of CAN Bus message");
   delay(1000);

   if (Canbus.init(CANSPEED_500))    //Initialise MCP2515 CAN controller at the specified speed
     Serial.println("CAN Init ok");
   else
     Serial.println("Can't init CAN");

 delay(1000);
}

 void loop() {

 tCAN message;
 if (mcp2515_check_message())
 {
   if (mcp2515_get_message(&message))
   {
     if (message.id == 0x620 and message.data[2] == 0xFF) //uncomment when you want to filter
     {

     Serial.print("ID: ");
     Serial.print(message.id, HEX);
     Serial.print(", ");
     Serial.print("Data: ");
     Serial.print(message.header.length, DEC);

    for (int i = 0; i < message.header.length; i++)
     {
       Serial.print(message.data, HEX);
       Serial.print(" ");
      }
       Serial.println("");
     }
   }
 }

}

The error code is as follows:

Arduino: 1.6.13 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"
fatal error: Canbus.h: No such file or directory

#include <Canbus.h>  // don't forget to include these

 compilation terminated.

 exit status 1

@JacquesNel

Please post code using code tags so the code does not randomly changes to italics and info falls away. Please edit your post.

You have not installed the library or installed it incorrectly.

[JacquesNel]

Apologies for that will do that in the future.

I have installed the CAN BUS library and have been sending messeges over CANBUS from one arduino to the other as a test and everything worked perfectly. Could it be that I need another library added?

I have read that some guys install the Seeed library do you think this will fix my problem

thanks for the reply

I am new to this stuff but love it.
Does anyone know why this error show and I am unable to compile or upload Hello World and Demo3 for IFID project.  Please help!  Thanks,
