ESP8266 Community Forum

Hi

I am trying to get the esphttpd web server running. It does look like exactly what the esp8266 needs and I am sure it will be a great project but I just can't get it running.

I have downloaded and built the esphttpd example. That built fine and produced 2 bin files one for 0x00000 and one for 0x40000.

32Mb module on the esp-launcher board

I am using eclipse on windows 10 to build, it reports no errors and the last few lines of the build are just

FW firmware
esptool.py v1.2-dev

14:30:27 Build Finished (took 10s.901ms)

But nothing gets uploaded to the esp8266 board.

But, I can load the files using the official fimrware flash tool and that seems to work, in that the uart output tells me it has connected to my WifFi and I can connect to the Access point but no web pages are served. (It had remembered my WiFi ssid from when I had the AT firmware running)

Any ideas about why I can't see the web pages. I get lots of " Call espFSInit first " errors in the uart output.

Thanks

Hi

Just in case anyone else has the same issue.

I have manged to get the files to uploaad using the esptool included with the dev kit

In Eclipse double click htmlflash to build it and a file webpages.espfs in libeshttpd gets uploaded.

I had to change the COM port setting in the main make file and also changed the baud rate to 230400.

It works now on one of the 2 windows 10 machines.

Must admit once it is running it is very good.

Off to have a play now!

Cheers
