Flashing: SKETCH, LIBRARY, SOURCEDIR, and ROOT need to be set

lasse · October 8, 2019, 4:53pm

Hi,

I want to see if I can upgrade my custom firmware to the latest version. So as a first step I just wanted to flash the latest firmware, before I try to merge in my changes.

I get this error:

SKETCH, LIBRARY, SOURCEDIR, and ROOT need to be set before including this file!

Here is some environment info - I tried to reclone everything as described in the README.md file

Try copying the .kaleidoscope-builder.conf file from the official repo. The problem here is that you’re in a directory called Model01-Factory, and the build system expects the sketch name to be the same as the directory name. The default builder config explicitly sets the sketch name to Model01-Firmware, so no matter how you named the directory, it will build.

This is what you need in .kaleidoscope-builder.conf:

DEFAULT_SKETCH=Model01-Firmware

Thank you. That helped, but I got one more error.

fork/exec /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avr-g++: bad CPU type in executable

It turns out this is because macOS 10.15 (just out) no longer allows 32 bit binaries.
So I have to wait for a new Arduino version for this to be fixed:

Just so you know … I will update when/if I find a solution.

lasse · October 10, 2019, 10:21am

Just tested with Arduino 1.9.0-BETA and that version works with the macOS 10.15

lasse · October 10, 2019, 1:03pm

Actually … one more issue. Maybe this is also macOS 10.15 catalina related?
When actually flashing (hitting the prog key) I get this error:

avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "/dev/cu.usbmodemkbio011": No such file or directory

What to do? Can you override the device path in .kaleidoscope-builder.conf?

lasse · October 10, 2019, 1:59pm

My device is called:

lasse@luke ~/d/svu> ls -la /dev/cu.usb*
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   18,  19 Oct 10 14:56 /dev/cu.usbmodemCDkbio011

jesse · October 10, 2019, 8:18pm

Huh. We ought to be probing that from: https://github.com/keyboardio/Kaleidoscope/blob/master/bin/find-device-port-macos

If you try that tool standalone, does it work?

(This may indeed be Catalina breakage.)

merlin · October 10, 2019, 9:49pm

I just upgraded a machine to Catalina, but I haven’t had time to try to build or flash Kaleidoscope on it yet. It may be a few days before I get around to it, but if the device port scanner still isn’t fixed by then, I expect to be able to sort it out.

lasse · October 11, 2019, 9:07am

Hmm the tool seems to work standalone, but it tries a different /dev when flashing

and then press 'Enter'.

When the 'Prog' key glows red, you can release it.

I am stuck. Don’t know what to try next.
Any suggestions?
Is there anything I can do to try help debug this?

jesse · October 22, 2019, 5:50pm

We’ve found the root cause. Catalina broke flashing of the Model 01, along with every Arduino based on the ATMega32U4. It sounds like Apple will be pushing a fix in a point release in the near future.

lasse · November 8, 2019, 6:13pm

Now I am on macOS 10.15.1 (19B88)
I can report that I still get the same error …

jesse · November 8, 2019, 6:28pm

As I understand it, 10.15.1 was already locked down before this bug got discovered inside apple.

cro · January 9, 2020, 10:22pm

Anyone know if this is corrected in 10.15.2?

algernon · January 10, 2020, 9:18am

It is, you should be able to flash the Model01 on 10.15.2.
