Uploading error: exit status 1

  1. Did it work in the past?
  2. What is the project about?
  3. Clone or original?
  4. What does your operating system (which one) think of your board?
  5. Correct port selected?
  6. If your board does not use the CH340 serial-to-usb converter, you can run the Loop-Back Test Instructions to analyse a little further.
  7. What is all connected? As mentioned above, disconnect. If you have anything connected to pins 0 and 1, that will interfere with the upload.
