Serial upload speed don't match with board setting #907

EddyAtPessac · 2018-01-25T13:08:25Z

Hello,
I just discovered Sloebert and I think it's great! How comfortable compared to the other IDE!
On the other hand, I have set the upload speed to 921600 (see the attached file) but when esptool is launched, the load speed selected is 19200. Why ?
The proposed speed are 9600, 57600, 115200 and 921600. There is no intermediate speed between 115200 and 921600 ?

\sloeber\/arduinoPlugin/packages/esp8266/tools/esptool/0.4.12/esptool.exe -cd ck -cb 19200 -cp COM1 -ca 0x00000 -cf `

This problem is seems not to be related to Sloeber but to esp V2.4.0.
It is fixed in 2.4.0-rc2

Strange ... the upload command was fine for me and then it no longer is.
Is this fixed for you?

jantje · 2018-02-02T15:15:06Z

The problem is related to the boards.txt having double entries for the uploadspeed
For instance generic board contains

Default setting
generic.upload.speed=115200

Menu settings

generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200=115200
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200.upload.speed=115200
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600=9600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600.upload.speed=9600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600=57600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600.upload.speed=57600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.windows=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.upload.speed=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.linux=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.macosx=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.upload.speed=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.linux=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.macosx=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.upload.speed=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.windows=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.upload.speed=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600=921600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600.upload.speed=921600

If you remove the default settings in boards.txt and reselect the board again in project properties the upload speed should be ok
Settings to be removed:
[myboard].upload.speed=115200

dhzl84 · 2018-02-02T16:29:05Z

Hi jantje, thanks for linking the issues and your suggestions.
Meanwhile I tried some combinations but no success for me.

I tried:
1. [myboard].upload.speed=115200:
only 115200 selectable but falls back to 19200 when flashing

2. [myboard].menu.UploadSpeed.115200.upload.speed=115200:
upload speed not configurable in properties, falls back to 19200 when flashing

3. both entries:
only 115200 selectable but falls back to 19200 when flashing

4. several entries of [myboard].menu.UploadSpeed..upload.speed=:
upload speed not configurable in properties, falls back to 19200 when flashing

5. several entries of [myboard].upload.speed=:
selectable but falls back to 19200 when flashing

UPDATE
Just doublechecked against Arduino IDE 1.8.5, same boards.txt -> working

jantje · 2018-02-02T17:40:55Z

Simply remove the lines
[myboard].upload.speed=XXXXX

You need to make sure sloeber reconfigures the project otherwise your changes will not be taken into account.

dhzl84 · 2018-02-02T18:01:42Z

Hmm, maybe we don't understand each other. I still think you're referring to my 2. case thus I put here some more details: (afaik you don't have an ESP8266 for verification)

initial state:
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200=115200
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200.upload.speed=115200
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600=9600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600.upload.speed=9600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600=57600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600.upload.speed=57600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.linux=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.macosx=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.upload.speed=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.windows=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.upload.speed=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.linux=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.macosx=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.upload.speed=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.windows=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.upload.speed=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600=921600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600.upload.speed=921600

changed to:
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200.upload.speed=115200
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600.upload.speed=9600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600.upload.speed=57600
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.upload.speed=230400
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.windows=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.upload.speed=256000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.upload.speed=460800
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.windows=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.upload.speed=512000
generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600.upload.speed=921600

makes baudrate unavailable in proprties:

results in:

jantje · 2018-02-02T19:21:40Z

There is no menu in

Simply remove the lines
[myboard].upload.speed=XXXXX

dhzl84 · 2018-02-03T09:20:03Z

OK, I'm close to give up, there is no line
[myboard].upload.speed=XXXXX
in boards.txt
There isn't even one single line in boards.txt that contains the word speed but not the word menu.
Neither in the sloeber v4.2 delivery nor in the Arduino 1.8.5 one.

Maybe you can refer to the line number in boards.txt?

I'm willing to spend time on this but I do not know how Sloeber/Eclipse makes use of boards.txt and how this is processed to build the arguments for the flash process.

If someone else got it working, please let me know since it then seems to be a personal issue on my side.
@EddyAtPessac did you have success?

jantje · 2018-02-03T17:40:31Z

looks like you are using 2.4.0 and not 2.4.0-rc2

dhzl84 · 2018-02-03T19:23:33Z

Yes I do. 2.4.0. is current release and newer than 2.4.0-rc2
Nevertheless I did the exact opposite and added generic.upload.speed=115200 to my 2.4.0 boards.txt and now it always flashes with that speed, regardless what is selected in the properties.

EddyAtPessac · 2018-02-05T15:50:06Z

Yes, it is ok. I change my esp 2.4.0 to 2.4.0-rc2 and it work fine.
But, it is difficult to change. I had a lot of compilation errors.
Finaly, I deleted the buid directory, reload the library, rebuild, and it work.
Thanks !

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-08T10:23:17Z

I had the same problem with incorrect upload speed and used @eXtatic-GitHub 's solution, as my boards.txt was missing 'generic.upload.speed', amongst others, too.
Any idea, what that source of that problem might be or how to get working GUI settings back?

dhzl84 · 2018-02-08T12:23:27Z

Hey there, I have another suggestion.

I was just having a look at the build environment settings to somehow understand what sloeber does there.
Then I saw that my JANTJE.PLATFORM_FILE was pointing to
${eclipse_home}/arduinoPlugin/packages/esp8266/hardware/esp8266/2.3.0/platform.txt
eventhough I didn't even had 2.3.0 version installed anymore.

After changing this to point to the 2.4.0/platform.txt file I was able to change upload speed via menu again. I didn't even remove my previous fix to always use 115200.

While changing back and forth between platforms I saw that this variable is not auromatically change like the others.
Here you'll see the build environment after changing from 2.4.0 back to 2.4.0-rc2

JANTJE.PLATFORM_FILE still pointing to 2.4.0

I'm not sure if my installation is broken or if it is a general issue.
Maybe one can confirm?

Regards,
eXtatic

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-08T18:19:30Z

Sorry to disappoint you, but I could not confirm your suggestion on that platform.txt file.

If I open up a new arduino project, I get fresh settings, and that platform.txt is missing at properties->C/C++ Build->JANTJE.PLATFORM_FILE alltogether. Adding the entry does not help. All other entries show the right directories and settings.

But I noticed, that, when switching between 2.3 and 2.4, the settings for JANTJE_MENU are changing from
CpuFrequency=80 Debug=Serial DebugLevel=None____ FlashFreq=40 FlashMode=dio FlashSize=4M3M ResetMethod=nodemcu UploadSpeed=921600
to
CpuFrequency=80 CrystalFreq=26 Debug=Serial DebugLevel=None____ FlashFreq=40 FlashMode=dio FlashSize=4M3M LwIPVariant=Prebuilt ResetMethod=nodemcu UploadSpeed=921600.upload.speed

Deleting the .upload.speed at the end is showing a positive result. Both versions of Boards.txt have the same entries.

Could someone please confirm this observation?

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-08T18:48:51Z

@jantje is there any chance, that the issue above shares similarities to this? (OS: Win 10 Home 64bit)

jantje · 2018-02-08T20:58:22Z

@Kami-Rotschild
I don't understand your question

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-08T21:16:26Z

I was stating the missing upload speed settings, as found in Boards.txt

generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200=115200 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.115200.upload.speed=115200 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600=9600 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.9600.upload.speed=9600 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600=57600 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.57600.upload.speed=57600 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.linux=230400 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.macosx=230400 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.230400.upload.speed=230400 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.windows=256000 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.256000.upload.speed=256000 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.linux=460800 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.macosx=460800 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.460800.upload.speed=460800 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.windows=512000 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.512000.upload.speed=512000 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600=921600 generic.menu.UploadSpeed.921600.upload.speed=921600

Only those are visible, that do not have any OS specific values.

jantje · 2018-02-08T21:21:01Z

I hadn't noticed this......
I'm simply stunned....
What is this good for?

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-08T22:16:02Z

I assume that there are baud rate transfer differences between *nix and *dos based operating systems and hence this needs to be reflected in matched values.

I hoped, you could help me a bit further 😸

jantje · 2018-02-09T16:48:02Z

I'll take a look but I'm currently not at home.

dhzl84 · 2018-02-10T08:22:21Z

Did some further testing.
My JANTJE.PLATFORM_FILE environment variable seems to be a relic from Sloeber 4.1.
Setting up new projects with all kinds of ESP packages (2.3.0, 2.4.0,2.4.0_rc2 and latest git) showed that JANTJE.PLATFORM_FILE is no longer used in 4.2 so I guess we can forget about it. Since I did only test 57600, which seems to always work for me, I was making wrong assumptions here.

Also I was not able to flash with 115200 (or 9600) with @Kami-Rotschild suggestions.

My obervations:
A.UPLOAD.SPEED is the upload speed passed to esptool.

Eventhough I change
JANTJE.MENU.UPLOADSPEED to 115200 and
JANTJE.MENU to CpuFrequency=80 CrystalFreq=26 Debug=Disabled DebugLevel=None____ FlashFreq=40 FlashMode=qio FlashSize=1M64 LwIPVariant=v2mss536 ResetMethod=ck UploadSpeed=115200
A.UPLOAD.SPEED defaults back to 19200 and esptool is using this.

There is just one exception for me, 57600 works straight away.
If I add generic.upload.speed=115200 to boards.txt this seems to set the default upload speed if anything unforseen happens. As a consequence I'm able to flash with 57600 if selected in the properties and 115200 if I select anything else.

So the main question for me is, how is A.UPLOAD.SPEED build?

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-11T22:59:05Z

Yes, my suggestion was a shot in the dark. The JANTJE.MENU change I suggested simply ends in an error due to missing parameters.
But on the other hand, you confirmed another thought that I had: 57600 Baud is the only one working in the menu. Let me guess: its the first in your drop down menu, too, @dhzl84 ?

About A.UPLOAD.SPEED: that one is working just fine with any manual setting. It even overwrites the generic.upload.speed at boards.txt. Thanks for the hint with that, @dhzl84 ! I can live with that for now.

jantje · 2018-02-12T21:43:08Z

I found and fixed a bug in the conversion of menu names to menu id's that caused the orinibal issue.

dhzl84 · 2018-02-13T05:12:48Z

Great to hear, thank you @jantje

dhzl84 · 2018-02-17T08:01:24Z

@Kami-Rotschild: confirmed 57600 is the first entry also for me

Kami-Rotschild · 2018-02-17T08:38:27Z

Thanks for solving the issue @jantje

hreintke · 2018-04-15T14:03:29Z

Hi,

Now I also have the issue with upload speed.
Am I correct that it is not yet solved in a 4.x version but is in the nightly ?

If so, Can you point me to the location/link where I can download that ?
The https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/com/github/brodykenrick/arduino-eclipse-plugin/io.sloeber.product/4.2.0-SNAPSHOT/ link on the Sloeber website points to a location only containing builds from januari.

jantje · 2018-04-15T17:35:56Z

@hreintke There was indeed a build engine issue. It it fixed now. For this type f issue a new issue should be made.
The fix is of feb so the latest nightly did not contain the fix.

hreintke · 2018-04-15T18:29:35Z

Like to check first before creating a new issue.

Should it be solved by ae4e878?

If so, I will build from git.

jantje · 2018-04-15T22:44:19Z

no need the nightly from yesterday is available now at the download location

hreintke · 2018-04-17T09:44:29Z

Thanks,

This worked for me.
