ESP 32 keeps restarting with AsyncWebServer

Hello!
I have another problem with my esp 32 webserver... :sweat_smile:
Yesterday everything worked fine but now the Esp is randomly restarting...
Here ist my code:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <AsyncTCP.h>
#include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h>
#include "FS.h"
#include "SD.h"
#include "SPI.h"
#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>

Adafruit_NeoPixel strip(12, 25, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);

// Replace with your network credentials
const char* ssid = "WLAN";
const char* password = "12345678";

// Create AsyncWebServer object on port 806
AsyncWebServer server(80);

void initSDCard(){
  if(!SD.begin()){
    Serial.println("Card Mount Failed");
    return;
  }
  uint8_t cardType = SD.cardType();

  if(cardType == CARD_NONE){
    Serial.println("No SD card attached");
    return;
  }

  Serial.print("SD Card Type: ");
  if(cardType == CARD_MMC){
    Serial.println("MMC");
  } else if(cardType == CARD_SD){
    Serial.println("SDSC");
  } else if(cardType == CARD_SDHC){
    Serial.println("SDHC");
  } else {
    Serial.println("UNKNOWN");
  }
  uint64_t cardSize = SD.cardSize() / (1024 * 1024);
  Serial.printf("SD Card Size: %lluMB\n", cardSize);
}

void initWiFi() {
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
  Serial.print("Connecting to WiFi ..");
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    Serial.print('.');
    delay(1000);
  }
  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
}

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  strip.begin();
  strip.show();
  
  initWiFi();
  initSDCard();

  

  server.on("/", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request){

     request->send(SD, "/index.html", "text/html");
 
    int paramsNr = request->params();
    Serial.println(paramsNr);
 
    for(int i=0;i<paramsNr;i++){
 
        AsyncWebParameter* p = request->getParam(i);
        Serial.print("Param name: ");
        Serial.println(p->name());
        Serial.print("Param value: ");
        Serial.println(p->value());
        Serial.println("------");

        
         

  int number = (int)strtol(&(p->value().c_str())[1], NULL, 16);
  Serial.println(number);
  int r = number >> 16;
  int g = number >> 8 & 0xFF;
  int b = number & 0xFF;
  
  // DEBUG
  Serial.print("RGB: ");
  Serial.print(r, DEC);
  Serial.print(" ");
  Serial.print(g, DEC);
  Serial.print(" ");
  Serial.print(b, DEC);
  Serial.println(" ");
  

 for(int i=0; i < 12; i++) {
    strip.setPixelColor(i, strip.Color( r, g, b ) );
    delay(100);
    strip.show();
    
  }
 
}
});



  server.serveStatic("/", SD, "/");

  server.begin();
}

void loop() {

}

and here are the errors:

Thanks in advance!!

ok it is still not working :frowning: thought it was power but it wasnt...

If you want to improve your chances of getting help, make sure that your code i posted correctly: How to get the best out of the forum.

You should post code by using code-tags
There is an automatic function for doing this in the Arduino-IDE
just three steps

  1. press Ctrl-T for autoformatting your code
  2. do a rightclick with the mouse and choose "copy for forum"
  3. paste clipboard into write-window of a posting

best regards Stefan

How does someone manage to incorrectly post a program without Code Tags yet some random section in the middle does have Tags? I've seen this in multiple posts.

thanks looks way better now

Try to use the exception decoder to get better info about the error. WatchDog is triggered if some part of the code takes too long to complete since this indicates that something hangs.

This piece of code looks a bit suspicious, though:

It performs 12 updates on the strip each with 100ms delay. This takes at least 1.2 seconds, and this may very well be the problem.

the delay there is just so that it looks a bit nicer when the strip lights up. currently it is working and the esp is not restarting anymore.(i am still going to shorten the delay) I removed an invissible reCAPTCHA object from the html code maybe that was the problem?... But for now its working :smiley:
