ESP32 Cam Error camera init failed

I'm getting error in my serial monitor

E (893) camera: Camera probe failed with error 0x105(ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND)
Camera init failed with error 0x105

what's wrong and how to fix it ?

Sounds like a faulty camera.

Try another.

so i should buy another camera and try again ?

There is a troubleshooting guide here which may help?

I have had a couple of the cameras fail so it is not impossible you just have a faulty camera. You can get wide angle lens versions of the camera now so it may be worth buying a different type replacement to try so if it does turn out the problem is not the camera you then at least have a useful alternative type camera in stock.

Perhaps speak to your supplier about that ...............

thanks, I tried it and I think it works. but when i open my serial com and start the camera it won't show the ip address, instead it show me the dots like picture shown below

Are you sure your wifi SSID and PASSWORD are correct
These dots are usually when it is trying to attach to your wifi

it's match with my wi-fi, I tried it several times and it always like that.. what could be wrong ?

It works guys, thank you for your help @srnet @alanesq
