Hi! New to the site/Forum, I recently built a new PC so I reinstalled Arduino on this new PC to upload more sound fonts and blade styles to my lightsaber's proffieboard 2.2 and I'm getting this error which I never got on my other PC. How do I correct this?
exec: "C:\Users\diamo\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\proffieboard\tools\arm-none-eabi-gcc\14-2-rel1-xpack/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc": executable file not found in %PATH%
Compilation error: exec: "C:\Users\diamo\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\proffieboard\tools\arm-none-eabi-gcc\14-2-rel1-xpack/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc": executable file not found in %PATH%
Are you able to upload the blink sketch?
I don't know what a "proffieboard" is. But do you have a regular Arduino like an Uno? Can you upload blink sketch to that?
Honestly not sure what that is. I'm on Arduino 2.3.6 at the moment if that helps at all.
Ok, if you can't answer simple questions, sorry but I can't help you.
Yeah I only do some light tinkering with this and I've never encountered this error until trying to do everything on this brand new PC so I'm not really sure what I messed up along the way or if I'm simply missing a file directory or something. If you need a picture of the board I have some here.
The installation of the proffieboard might be corrupt. Which instructions did you follow to install the proffieboard board package?
- If you followed the alternative installation method described in arduino-proffieboard/README.md at master · profezzorn/arduino-proffieboard · GitHub, delete the hardware directory where you installed the board package, download the package again from github and try again.
- If you followed the normal installation of the board package (described in https://pod.hubbe.net/proffieboard-setup.html) you can downgrade the package (latest version is 4.6) to something earlier (e.g. 3.6) and see if it works. After that you can try to upgrade to 4.6 again.
Apparently Norton 360 on my PC was false flagging a crucial directory so that it wasn't included in the final install. Downgrading from 4.6 to 3.6 worked. Thank you for that.
