build partition table allocation should not cause overflow

Postby timboesp » Tue Apr 11, 2023 10:00 pm

Hi, please help me with this issue. I'm a big fan of esp-idf and espressif's ESP32 SoC's.

I've been building and running my "Receiver-v1" project fine until now after a few minor changes that I'm aware of I'm getting
an "overflow" error, see below.

See my partition table below where the factory app factory partition is 0x14030, however the error suggests that the smallest partition is only 0x100000 bytes. But it isn't. What's up with this?

Please advise how I can help you help me. Thanks

Note: I have changed some of the paths to hide real info. Thanks

Did you set up/enable use of your custom partition table in menuconfig?
If you did, check if the entry is still there. ESP-IDF throws away your configuration (sdkconfig &c.) sometimes (e.g. when setting a "new" target.)

Yes that was it. My flash size, which was 8M got dropped to 2M too.
thx

@MicroController

I realized that I was looking at the wrong partition table. I have an ESP32 with 4M flash. and my binary, if I understand right is 1073120 bytes.

What is the issue. I seem to have enough memory for this 4MB flash ESP32??

I don't get the error message: "E (653) spi_flash: Detected size(4096k) smaller than the size in the binary image header(8192k). Probe failed." ???

Where does 8192k come from?

Thank you for your help.


Here my actual partition table in effect:
