I am very new to coding, and while I was testing out different examples. I tried to upload the blink example. I got exit status 1 error, and it says it can't compile. Here is the code:
I couldn't put the error message in a file because it was way too long. It was 86 pages on a google doc
Blink.ino (1.17 KB)
You may want to try post again as I dont see any error msg anywhere...
How would i go about doing that because it says my error message is too long to post on here: it is more than 9000 characters, and i tried putting it in a file and attaching it, and it also said it was too big.
There are many methods.
Post an external link (not many people like those)
Post in seperate posts as more than a single attachment (not many people like those either)
Post as much of the beginning and end of the msg as possible (not perfect but often done to get the needed info)
Save as a PDF and attach (often works but some dont like PDF's)
Here is the error code(This is only part of it)

I have good and bad news...
Good news is thats much better...
Bad news I am not a Mac person so hopefully somebody with mac experience comes along to try help.
Ok, thank you for trying to help me. If you know of any mac person can you ask them to look at the error code, and this thread in general? Thanks.
Sounds like a bizarre compiler error.
A bunch of people have had IDE problems, including IDE crashes and bizarre compile errors, when they had a previous installation. At least some of those problems seem to be caused by incompatible executables and preference files that the IDE saves outside the IDE installation directory. Perhaps that is what is causing your particular problem. In such cases it appears that the fix is to delete or rename the old "Arduino15" directory and re-install the IDE.
On Mac OS X:
/Users/(username)/Library/Arduino15 (a.k.a. ~/Library/Arduino15)
(Note: The 'Library' folder is greyed out in Finder. The folder can't be opened with a double-click. To browse the contents of 'Library', ctrl-click on it and select "Open in New Tab" from the pop-up menu.)
On Windows delete or rename both:
Arduino IDE 1.6.5r5 and previous: C:\Users(username)\AppData\Roaming\Arduino15
Arduino IDE 1.6.6 and later: C:\Users(username)\AppData\Local\Arduino15
On Linux:
/home/(username)/.arduino15 (a.k.a. ~/.arduino15)
(Note: file/folder names starting with '.' are not normally shown in directory listings. Use 'ls -a' to get a directory listing that includes the hidden files.)
