- Tue Apr 14, 2015 5:02 am #14447 It's just missing the xtensa toolchain: xtensa-lx106-elf. It's not included in this github zip: https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/archive/esp8266.zip.

It is however included e.g. in this one: https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/arduino-esp8266/archive/master.zip.

Extract the xtensa-lx106-elf folder to where the IDE says it is missing.

Code: Select allarduino-1.6.1/hardware/esp8266com/esp8266/tools/linux/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/xtensa-lx106-elf-g++: 1:

- Tue Apr 14, 2015 11:19 am #14488 Ingmar, I downloaded the zip you pointed to, but no joy.

That zip does have an extensa folder, but does not seem to have the file that the error refers to.

Incidentally, I'm using Arduino IDE 1.6.1, just so as to not take chances. But, I've also tried with 1.6.3, with the same results.

I just downloaded that file again to be sure. It DOES contain the entire xtensa toolchain, including the mssing file that is producing the error (C:\Program Files\Arduino/hardware/tools/esp8266/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/xtensa-lx106-elf-g++.exe).

Mind you, there are TWO xtensa folders in there, one is a subfolder of the other. The file xtensa-lx106-elf-g++.exe is in the top folder.
