Problem with ChipKit Core Compiling

[FIZ_Jake]

Hello,

 

Looking for a little help concerning the newest version of ChipKit Core and compiling any code. Whenever the code is verified it pops up with the same error and I can't quite figure out why it won't compile. I have attached the code that is being used, the error message, and a text document of the code. If there is anything else I can add to be of assistance I'd be more than happy.

Thank you,

Jake

Hi Jake,

Did you manually install with the zip file, or did you automatically install from the Arduino IDE?

Both are described in the chipKIT core Wiki.

I installed from an executable and not manually from a zip file.

Hi Jake, 

I'm going to try to replicate this issue. 

What is your operating system, and what is the exact file that you downloaded to install the chipKIT core and from where?

Hi Jake,

What version of the Arduino IDE are you using? I know there were some issues with Arduino 1.6.8 so that could be a problem. From the error message it sounds like one of the files is missing so I would try and install chipKIT core again (uninstall it first if you can). Have you tried auto installing via URL from within the Arduino IDE? It's super easy and I wrote a blog post on how to do it.

We tried everything from 1.6.9 down to 1.6.7 and it seemed like the only fix was to use the link to download the core. Currently we are using windows XP.

The problem with using the url to install is that not all computers had network access and it would have been easiest for us to just use the zip file because we are putting it on about 12 machines.

is the website where we got the core and downloaded it. We followed the "manual install by copying zip file"

That is the correct website. Is it working now for you or are you still having issues?
