Guru Meditation Error - Device keeps rebooting

[rogei001]

Hi all,

I am trying to use i2c on ESP32. So I changed the i2c-example to use it for my sensor.

make flash works perfectly, but when I use make monitor the ESP32 keeps rebooting:

Rebooting...

Are their any ideas, what I can do? I use the latest esp-idf and buildtool.


Thank You!

[ESP_Sprite]

What devboard are you using?

[WiFive]

So I changed the i2c-example to use it for my sensor.

What did you change?

[kolban]

Consider pasting your application as a whole to pastebin and making a comment in the code about what you changed vs what worked before the change. Then place a link in the forum. Make sure that the comment in the code is as visible as possible. Try and make it ridiculously easy for the community to look at your code and be able to try and assist.

I have the same issues as well. My case the code is pretty simple where ESP32 just boot up and connect to access point. What cause the Guru Meditation Error and why the device keep rebooting?

[kolban]

When an exception is detected by an ESP-IDF application, the default action is to hope is was transitory and simply reboot. Within the configuration of your application (using make menuconfig) you can define what action you would like to happen when an exception is encountered. Choices include:

* Reboot
* Halt
* Enter a local/mini GDB session

Personally, I usually set it to halt during development. This then lets me examine the nature of the issue to attempt to resolve. When we halt, diagnostic information is presented that we can then use to find the point in the application where the exception was encountered which is a significant place to start looking for the underlying cause.
