Running httpserver example, now can't get serial port back
Posted: Thu Feb 16, 2017 11:33 amHi, I'm new here and new with the ESP8266. I'm using it on a MacBook Pro with Arduino 1.8.0.
I have one of the httpserver examples (HttpBasicAuth) running on my NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12e) board, but now I can't figure out how to get an active serial port back. When I go to the Tools>Port menu item in Arduino 1.8.0, all I see now is a bluetooth port and not the tty.usbmodem* port I used before to upload a sketch to the board. I see that the server is still running n the board when I link to it in a browser.
How can I get the serial port back state so I can use it to upload different sketches to the board?
Thanks.
