nonsuchpro 1 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Hi all. Newb here. I just picked up (5) MSP-EXP430F5529LP's on a whim while placing an order for Arduino swag. MCM is blowing them out at $4 a piece so I figured I have nothing to lose and will enjoy the new experience. Of course, I'm running into issues. Most of the tutorials on Energia are for older versions and have a few different options. Anyway, I am just starting out with these boards and I believe I have downloaded and installed all necessary drivers and software. Energia sees the Launchpad and gives me the 2 com ports as it should. I open the "Blink" example sketch, click Upload, and this what I get. Energia: 1.6.10E18 (Windows 10), Board: "MSP-EXP430F5529LP" Rev 1.6 msp430-g++: error: Files: No such file or directory msp430-g++: error: (x86)\energia-1.6.10E18\hardware\tools\msp430/include: No such file or directory exit status 1 Error compiling for board MSP-EXP430F5529LP. The folder "include" does exist in that location and it does contain files. So I'm at a loss. Also, I don't understand why there is a forward slash (/) in between msp430 and include and not a back slash (\) in the error msg, not that it has anything to do with the error. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks! oPossum 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Is Energia installed on a folder with a space on the path, like c:\Program Files (x86)\energia-1.6.10E18? You need to install Energia on a folder with no space on the path, like c:\Energia\energia-1.6.10E18. nonsuchpro 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nonsuchpro 1 Posted November 25, 2016 Author Share Posted November 25, 2016 I deleted everything and reinstalled (unzipped) Energia to the path you suggested but it still didn't work. Instead of the ezFET-Lite drivers, I installed the fetdrivers from TI's website. That did the trick. All is well and sketches are uploading. Thanks again! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
energia 484 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 These are 2 different issues: 1st the space in the path where Energia is located. Which you had solved. Then the 2nd has to do with the FET driver. For the 2nd issue. Did the drivers posted here under MSP430F5529 not work? http://energia.nu/guide/guide_windows/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
