New Feather Huzzah ESP8266 does not appear in my boards

Post by chuck_untulis »

I followed the procedure to
. select the board
. supply credentials
. select the appropriate USB COM entry
. follow the instructions on the Install Adafruit.IO WipperSnapper page
. loaded the firmware on the board - no errors reported
. depressed the RST button
. the LED near the RST button flashes some patterns and the blue LED at the other end of the board occasionally flashes
. followed the link to my adafruit.io page, but the board does not show up

I refreshed the page but the board does not appear. all that is shown is my old Funhouse board.

What do I need to do to get the new board to show up?

You can see the troubleshooting guideline: https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/download ... sp8266.pdf
If this does not help, I think you should get your board checked by Adafruit team if the warranty is still valid.

No errors reported in the installation process and adaftuit.io did not report an error it just doesn't show up. I am confused by the comments that WipperSnapper makes everything easier but in this case it appears easier but it just doesn't work and it reports no error. If there is a failure, then it should be reported. Saying to look in the documentation is not helpful.

No. I was following the directions after selecting my board which I thought would be sufficient. There was no indication at the time that I should go to the page you mentioned. It should have been specified early on in the process instead of "oh by the way". I will go and review that now.

I do not mean to be facetious, but many instructions are written by developers who already have a lot of domain knowledge. These "simple" instructions are confusing for people without that knowledge. I do not know if you have reviewers or just wait until a naive user discovers a problem and then has to do the detective work to accumulate enough knowledge to try to ask intelligent questions. The simple statement to "read the instructions" without some hints is not always helpful. If one of Adafruit's often stated goals is to help people learn...

Hi Chuck,
. the LED near the RST button flashes some patterns and the blue LED at the other end of the board occasionally flashes
. followed the link to my adafruit.io page, but the board does not show up
Do you have Arduino IDE installed? Are you able to open the Serial Monitor and check the output from the ESP8266? If you are, could you paste it here?

if not, could you navigate to https://serialmonitor.dev/? Select 115200 as the baud rate and then select your board's serial port (should be the same as what you provided to the WipperSnapper web uploader)

if neither, I can load up an esp8266 and see if i can duplicate the issue from my end.

Sorry that you're frustrated. We'll work on solving it in this thread.

Adafruit.io WipperSnapper is still in beta - we're actively working on incorporating feedback into the platform and the firmware. The new device page, for instance, was added a few months ago to decrease confusion about the scattered installation pages. When a user experiences an issue during the beta period, we do our best to solve them, they're discussed with our development team (including me!) and then incorporated into AdafruitIO/WipperSnapper beta so the same issue isn't recurring across users.

I just Uploaded the WipperSnapper code with no errors.

The https://serialmonitor.dev/ does not report an error when connected to the device nor does any text come out. Is there supposed to output? If so, then that should be stated. If not, then that should be stated. I am confused about what the result of the serial monitor should show?

Uploading the blink sketch from Arduino and I get:

Sketch uses 218194 bytes (16%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 17932 bytes (5%) of dynamic memory, leaving 309748 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.
esptool.py v3.1
Serial port COM4
Connecting....

A fatal error occurred: This chip is ESP8266 not ESP32-S2. Wrong --chip argument?
A fatal error occurred: This chip is ESP8266 not ESP32-S2. Wrong --chip argument?

That confirms that either the Uploader is wrong or the board selection and Instructions are wrong.

Any chance of this being solved or at least acknowledged ... I am still in limbo?

Or do I abandon WipperSnapper again because it does not work as advertised?

There _is_ supposed to be debugging output to help guide us through his issue. I'm not sure why it's not appearing.

Could you:
Upload wippersnapper to the ESP8266 using the Web Uploader
Press the RESET button on the ESP8266.
Open Arduino IDE
Select your Feather ESP8266 from Arduino->Tools->Port->select the port
Open the serial monitor, and make sure it's set to 115200 baud.
If there is debug text in the serial monitor, please copy it here. If not, let me know. This is data we'll need to know in order to reproduce and fix the issue.

I'm currently wrapping up work on the Pixel API. I am going to work on the pending issues labeled `bug` on the WipperSnapper repository within the next week.

You can subscribe to track this ESP8266 issue here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Wi ... issues/334

This is unrelated to the core issue, but, you need to select the Feather ESP8266 Huzzah from the Arduino IDE (Tools->Board->Make sure ESP8266 is selected)

I will go through the process again, but I do not expect any different results because I have been through it a number of times. You said you were going to try using your ESP8266. I assume you have not done that?

Hello,
I'm having the same problem. WipperSnapper was installed on my ESP8266 successfully but it's stuck connecting to WiFi. I'm aware that the instruction says to not have any space in SSID (how to enter SSIDs with spaces in them?), but the board is detecting the SSID correctly as you can see in the serial log from Arduino IDE below,

Image

It is stuck in a loop and isn't showing up in devices section in my profile. My WiFi is 2.45GHz only. I have tried resetting and reconnecting the board to USB port with no change. Any help is highly appreciated!

I posted a response earlier but it seems to have disappeared???

Basically I ran the experiment again wit the same results:
No error messages
Device still has not appeared on my devices page
Serial monitor connected to COM4 at 115200 but shows no output
Arduino connected to the appropriate COM port with speed set to 115200 but no output

I started serialmonitor.dev selecting the ESP8266 on COM4 and there was no output

I would suggest adding a note to unplug other USB COM devices because
when I also had a Trellis plugged in, I did not get any output from the Arduino Serial Monitor)

I started Arduino>Serial Monitor with only the ESP8266 plugged in and finally have the following output:

I deleted the rest because it seemed like it was another repeat of the previous information.

Where can I find information on Exception 28? If I had that information I might be able to help solve the problem.

ESP8266 does not appear on my devices page.

Is there a problem with my old aio_key? If so, how do I get a replacement?

I tried yet again and I finally received what might be useful information.

I started serialmonitor.dev selecting the ESP8266 on COM4 and there was no output

I would suggest adding a note to unplug other USB COM devices because
when I also had a Trellis plugged in, I did not get any output from the Arduino Serial Monitor)

I started Arduino>Serial Monitor with only the ESP8266 plugged in and finally have the following output:

Re: New Feather Huzzah ESP8266 does not appear in my boards

Post by adafruit2 »

you can regen IO key pretty easily but probably better to just go with an ESP32 instead of an 8266 which is at this point kinda ancient. do you have an ESP32 board?

Post by chuck_untulis »

I don't understand that if it is ancient and it does not seem to be supported, why have it on the page?

At the very least there should be a pointer to another similar board that has a better chance of being supported.

This whole experience further denigrates my opinion of Whippersnapper and Adafruit.

Why try to sell Whippersnapper to users if it is in perpetual Beta and support is lacking?
