(solved) My app now hangs on boot

Postby mzimmers » Tue Aug 20, 2019 10:35 pm

Here's what I get:

Code: Select all

I (666) cpu_start: Pro cpu start user code

It then hangs for about 7-8 seconds, and repeats. This was working as of a couple hours ago. I was experimenting with using Eclipse, but I don't see how that could have affected this.

Any ideas what I did to screw this up? Thanks...

If you put a log statement or printf() as the first line in app_main(), do you get anything?

What's the full output when it "repeats". The reset should give some clues about the reset cause, and if we're lucky it will print the PC address when the WDT reset triggered.

Hi Angus - that is the full output I get. I do have a log message at the top of app_main(); it doesn't print.

Thanks...

I'm guessing you have ROM boot messages disabled by pulling MTDO (GPIO15) low? Can you temporarily pull it high and see if you get any additional output?

This isn't an area I'm really familiar with -- this GPIO15, is it something I could have done purely in software? If so, it has to be something that I inadvertently did with Eclipse. I'm happy to throw away all of my Eclipse work, but I don't know how this will restore my app. I've already pulled a fresh copy of the IDF from git.

No, there's a strapping pin that controls whether the ROM prints any early boot messages. Consult ESP32 datasheet section 2.4 for details.

Hi guys - I'm sorry -- I misspoke above; the output above is what I see repeated. The first time it starts, I get this:

There's a little more information in there, but nothing that looks like a problem.

Regarding MTDO: it's the same that it's always been.

I still have a feeling that this must have something to do with my experimentation with Eclipse yesterday. As mentioned above, I completely refreshed the IDF, and I didn't make any changes to my code. What else can I rebuild to get back to my pre-Eclipse configuration?

The last part (with the RTCWDT_RTC_RESET) repeats every several seconds.

This is rather baffling: I've cleaned and rebuilt everything I can think of; what change could I have introduced to cause this?

Well, I got it working. I deleted my entire esp-idf repository (which was just a clone from github anyway), and rebuilt all my tools. It now boots and runs. I still don't know what went wrong, but it's water under the bridge now. Thanks to all who looked and helped...

EDIT:

I forgot to mention: on startup, I'm getting this warning:

W (40) cpu_start: Chip revision is higher than the one configured in menuconfig. Suggest to upgrade it.

I can't find anything in my sdkconfig file that mentions chip revisions; can someone tell me where this is? Thanks.
