how can I avoid or solve this error while doing HTTP update?
What is causing this error?

I have the same problem!!
I'm trying to do an OTA update by getting the new program from my site.
Do you can solve it?

HTTP_UPDATE_FAILD Error (11): Update error: ERROR[11]: Invalid bootstrapping state, reset ESP8266 before updatingHTTP_UPDATE_FAILD Error (11): Update error: ERROR[11]: Invalid bootstrapping state, reset ESP8266 before updatingHTTP_UPDATE_FAILD Error (11): Update error: ERROR[11]: Invalid bootstrapping state, reset ESP8266 before updating.......

- Wed Mar 14, 2018 11:39 am #74599 I solved with:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues/3915

"The documentation already says that if you upload a sketch through serial, you'll have to reset the board first manually, before OTA will work, ie. upload via serial, reset the board, then use OTA."

I reset (power off, power on) and the esp8266 update
