Problem uploading to board.

Development Tools IDE 1.x
21

What type of Arduino board are you using?

does it say :
ioctl TIOCMGET Inappropriate ioctl for device

if so try this and if its a mega 2560

go to tools

then select port

then the port
"/dev/cu.usbmodern1411 (Arduino/Genuino Mega 2560)"

Hope it Helps

My UNO R3 doesn't work even though it worked yesterday, and i haven't done anything to it. The Yellow LED is constantly lit up and i can't upload sketches to the UNO R3?
The COM port is of course working perfectly, i have checked that in Terminal.

The error message says:

avrdude: ser_open(): can´t open device "\.\com3": a device attached to the system is not functioning

What is the problem and how can i fix it? Thanks.

23

Sometimes, the same USB port doesn't recognize the non-original board. I have some ones of those. My solution, when this happen is: rebooting the computer and then change the port. Then tray to upload the simplest program I have, usually does it function to me.

24

Hi guys!
I've had same problem with a non original Uno3, but the board was perfectly recognized on /dev/ttyACM0 ... but doesn't upload any sketch due to privileges problems.

Solution: "sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyACM0" .... insist maybe, one more time!!!

Grate! It's working!!!
Good luck! :slight_smile:

25

guys my code is not getting uploaded.i'm using the unor3, i have selected the correctboard even port also in settings.still it is getting strucked at 'uploading'

26

The answer to a lot of you people is to start HERE first !

Nobody is getting much help as this thread is just a jumble of posts many of which are not related.

Read this: Have I bricked my Arduino Uno? Problems with uploading to board - Arduino Stack Exchange

My board is clone board, So many clone boards from Asia not support driver from Arduino.cc IDE
Because of different specs

This solution worked for the ERROR **"avrdude: ser_open device \.\COM1 **

You can try it for different #upload errors

1] So at first download the IDE From arduino.org. While installing it ask for the Atmel drivers to install
Install all the drivers and software it ask for

2] You have to set COM port for arduino to COM1
For that go to Control Panel>Hardware and sound>Device Manager>
** Find arduino uno port in Ports (COM and LPT)**
** Or in Unspecified ports**
Right Click on Arduino uno port go to properties>port setting >advanced>change COM port Number to COM1

3] After that we have to try different Drivers in IDE to find the working one.

Driver that worked for me, Work in most cases

4] To change the driver

Go to control panel>Hardware and Sound>Device Manager>Find Arduino port>right click on it>select

  • Update driver software>select browse my computer for driver software>select let me pick from my list*

  • of drivers on my computer> uncheck show compatible hardware*

5] Then you have to check compatible hardware from the list
In my case the drivers worked for the ERROR "avrdude: ser_open device \.\COM1”

is Atmel Corp>EDBG Virtual COM port

double click to select driver . Don’t worry if it shows Update driver warning

Atmel Corp>EDBG Virtual COM port drivers worked for most of the clone Adriano Uno

GOOD LUCK

Hello , I"m a newer in arduino and I tried to make the first test on it Using the basic exemple blink, first of all I check if I was using the right borad < in case uno< and for sure the port, in my case com1.I did the compile and it looks good ,but when I traied to upload ,take a look the trouble....

Has anyone here that already saw this,..

@ Clavibravo

Select the proper COM port as it is unlikely to be COM 1

I have the same thing too its says

Global variables use 210 bytes (10%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1838 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

An error occurred while uploading the sketch

This report would have more information with

option enabled in File -> Preferences.

What do I do?

@Coder1744

First you need to go HERE and pay attention to the bit about doing some homework on the issue you have.

Then start by reading...lots of reading the posts that all say the same thing stk500.

Type that into the SEARCH box provided for you benefit and slowly work through them until you find one that works.

stk500 is a "generic" message and there are multiple causes and fixes.

Arduino: 1.8.2 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"

.

Problem uploading to board.

any suggestions on solving this error message

i just bought a arduino uno board on connecting ti my system with window and trying out the blink example

code. it didnt upload rather displaced this message below;

Arduino: 1.8.3 Hourly Build 2017/04/14 10:33 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"

avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "\.\COM1": The system cannot find the file specified.

Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

please what do you advice i do?

@andy_love

Select the CORRECT COM port as it is very very unlikely to be COM 1
Double check in DEVICE MANAGER under ports COM / LPT

How to get the best out of this forum Installation & Troubleshooting

Hello, Welcome to the Arduino Forum. This guide explains how to get the best out of this forum. Please read and follow the instructions below. Being new here you might think this is having rules for the sake of rules, but that is not the case. If you don’t follow the guidelines all that happens is there is a long exchange of posts while we try to get you to tell us what we need in order to help you, which is frustrating for you and frustrating for us. The people who try to help with your pro…

It will help you get the very best out of the forum in the future.

  • Your OS and version can be valuable information, please include it along with extra security you are using. Antivirus etc.
  • Always list the version of the IDE you are using and the board version if applicable.
  • Use quote or add error messages as an attachment NOT a picture.
  • How to insert an image into your post. ( Thanks sterretje )
  • Add your sketch where applicable but please use CODE TAGS
  • Add a SCHEMATIC were needed even if it is hand drawn
  • Add working links to any specific hardware as needed (NOT links to similar items)
  • Remember that the people trying to help cannot see your problem so give as much information as you can

COMMON ISSUES

  • Ensure you have FULLY inserted the USB cables.
  • Check you have a COMMON GROUND where required. ( Thanks Perry)
  • Where possible use USB 2.0 ports or a USB 2.0 POWERED HUB to rule out USB 3.0 issues.
  • Try other computers where possible.
  • Try other USB leads where possible.
  • You may not have the correct driver installed. CH340/341 or CP2102 or FT232 VCP Drivers - FTDI
  • There may be a problem with the board check or remove your wiring first.
  • Remove any items connected to pins 0 and 1.

COMPUTER RELATED

  • Close any other serial programs before opening the IDE.
  • Ensure you turn off any additional security / antivirus just to test.
  • There may be a problem with the PC try RESTARTING it.
  • You may be selecting the wrong COM port.
  • Avoid cloud/network based installations where possible OR ensure your Network/Cloud software is RUNNING.
  • Clear your browsers CACHE.
  • Close the IDE before using any other serial programs.
  • Preferably install IDE’s as ADMINISTRATOR or your OS equivalent

ARDUINO SPECIFIC BOARDS

  • CH340/341 based clones do not report useful information to the “get board info” button.
  • NANO (Old Types) some require you to use the OLD BOOTLOADER option.
  • NANO (ALL Types) See the specific sections lower in the forum.
  • NANO (NEW Types) Install your board CORE’s.
  • Unless using EXTERNAL PROGRAMMERS please leave the IDE selection at default “AVRISP mkII”.
  • Boards using a MICRO USB connector need a cable that is both DATA and CHARGE. Many are CHARGE ONLY.

CREATE editor install locations.

  • On macOs ~/Applications/ArduinoCreateAgent-1.1/ArduinoCreateAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/config.ini
  • On Linux ~/ArduinoCreateAgent-1.1/config.ini
  • On Windows C:\Users[your user]\AppData\Roaming\ArduinoCreateAgent-1.1

Performing the above actions may help resolve your problem without further help.

Language problem ?

Try a language closer to your native language:

@cheri43

Please read the page on the link I just provided for andy_love and then come back with all the missing information.

37

I solved the problem for myself...

problem caused: if Arduino IDE isn't set to the correct board you own the code wont work

problem solution: got to tools > board > (your board model)

after setting the IDE to your proper board model it should work... as that is what worked for me : )

best of luck

her guys!!

this error appear to me when i upload a program on the arduino so please help me to solve it !!
