Hi Sir and Madam,

I try to build the ESP-IDF esp-idf-v2.0-rc2 at Windows 10 (64 bit) but fail.
The error is below:

Andy@AngHockLeong-PC MINGW32 ~/esp/19-1-18_fludrive/esp-idf-v2.0-rc2/examples/get-started/hello_world
$ make menuconfig
-bash: make: command not found

The document to follow is : https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html

Question:
1. Does the document above correct?
2. If correct, how to fix it?

Thank you.

Hi,

The getting started guide from ESP-IDF v4.1 ("latest") will not work to build ESP-IDF v2.0-rc2 (March 2017).

You can find the Get Started guide for ESP-IDF v2.1.1 here. If you follow this then it should work:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html

Strongly recommend upgrading to a more recent ESP-IDF release if this is possible.

Hi ESP_Angus,
I ignore the old set up version and follow the latest version (4.1) https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... setup.html to set up.

1. After install the https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf-tools-setup-2.0.exe , I have the following error at ESP-IDF command prompt.
May I how to fix it?

Done! You can now compile ESP-IDF projects.
Go to the project directory and run:

idf.py build


2. When build it with idf.py build, the error is below:

Hi ESP_Angus,
I ignore the old set up version and follow the latest version (4.1) https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... setup.html to set up.

What version of the IDF source code do you have? You need to follow the documentation that matches the IDF source code version you have.

Code: Select all

C:\Users\Andy\Desktop\esp-idf> idf.py build
Note: You are using Python 3.7.3. Python 3 support is new, please report any problems you encounter. Search for 'Setting the Python Interpreter' in the ESP-IDF docs if you want to use Python 2.7.

ESP-IDF v4.x doesn't print this message so you don't seem to have ESP-IDF v4.1 source code. First find the version of ESP-IDF you have, and then find the documentation that matches the version you have (on the docs pages there is a link in the bottom left corner that lets you change version number).

Hi ESP_Angus,
For "What version of the IDF source code do you have? You need to follow the documentation that matches the IDF source code version you have.", the IDF version I used is 3.3.

After I use ver 4.0, the error disappear but new error is appear as below:

May I know how to fix it?
Thank you.

fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

This error means that the IDF_PATH directory is not a git directory. You need to clone the repository from GitHub in order to get the .git directory, the "Download" feature in GitHub will not work.

If downloading a stable release, there are also zip files you can use. But there is no stable v4.0 or v4.1 release, yet.

Hi,

I have set up a linux OS's PC and compile at linux OS.

1. The hello world example is compiled successfully for ESP-IDF version 2.0-rc2 using Get Started guide for ESP-IDF v2.1.1
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html

2. The hello world example is compiled successfully for stable ESP-IDF version 3.3 using stable version at https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... index.html .

Thank you very much.
