-p/--port option seems broken

[6wheels]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to flash my Sonoff dongle version P as usual, but it fails with this error:

cc2538-bsl.py: error: argument -p/--port: invalid int value: '/dev/ttyUSB1'

Here is the command I use (using docker):

docker run --rm --device /dev/ttyUSB1:/dev/ttyUSB1 -e FIRMWARE_URL=https://github.com/Koenkk/Z-Stack-firmware/raw/Z-Stack_3.x.0_coordinator_20230507/coordinator/Z-Stack_3.x.0/bin/CC1352P2_CC2652P_launchpad_coordinator_20230507.zip ckware/ti-cc-tool -ewv -p /dev/ttyUSB1 --bootloader-sonoff-usb

I double checked the port on which the Sonnoff dongle is connected.

After reading the commit history, I can see some changes have been made to use argparse (f42a2e2#diff-9d6356e73eb9065e1b5a72ad6cfd71d5c08cd22b7be6cb08d6318aa51885a93eR1061)

The option expects an int value and port seems to be dynamically retrieved from /dev/.
So I tried several things, but it always fails.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

I just ran into this as well. Use the number of the usb:
ie ../../ttyUSB0 = -p 0
../../ttyUSB1 = -p 1

Hi @joshfedo,
Thanks for answering, unfortunately, I already tested this, and I get another error, which is:

So int or string? Make a choice! 😆

Add me to the list for having the same issues. What are the odds I go to change my zigbee setup and now can't flash it because of this issue. Any idea on a fix?

[git-developer]

You can use the previous image ckware/ti-cc-tool:2024-01-28 as a workaround.

[git-developer]

I think that the change introducing this behavior in #155 was not meant on purpose.

[vjuergens]

The patch "Fix broken port arg #163" is working for me, unfortunealy I am facing now issue #162 "force_speed"

[alesms]

any news @JelmerT @git-developer?

[git-developer]

No need to run out of patience:

• A workaround was advertised in this thread if you need a working image.
• The issue has an open PR!163.
• In case you're affected by the issue ERROR: 'Namespace' object has no attribute 'force_speed' #162, there's an open PR!165, too.

I can confirm using the previous version I was able to update with no issues. Thanks for the quick work around.

[git-developer]

To minimize further irritations, I updated the latest tag of image ckware/ti-cc-tool to point to the last working version 2024-01-28.

[JelmerT]

Fixed with #163 👍
Thanks for reporting @6wheels

[git-developer]

The container image is updated.

[6wheels]

Many thanks for this fast fix!
