xtensa-lx106-elf-g++ returned 139 on MAC OSX

[meg9468]

Hi,

I have tried to compile the IDE for my Mac OSX (because I have OSX ver 10.6.8 and the precompiled version was for 10.7 !).
I have performed the steps as described, and the arduino ver 1.6.5 was build without problem :-)

But when I compile an *.ino file for ESP8266 hardware, I get that error :

Arduino: 1.6.5 (Mac OS X), Board: "Generic ESP8266 Module, 80 MHz, 115200, 512K (64K SPIFFS)"

/Applications/Programmation/Arduino_1_6_5.app/Contents/Resources/Java/hardware/esp8266com/esp8266/tools/xtensa-lx106-elf/bin/xtensa-lx106-elf-g++ returned 139
Error compiling.

?????

What can I do ????

Many thanks
Greg

Hi Greg,
just checked the toolchain binaries and they don't seem to be compatible with 10.6.5:

$ otool -l xtensa-lx106-elf-g++
....
     cmd LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX
  cmdsize 16
  version 10.10
      sdk 10.10

The toolchain needs to be rebuilt with an appropriate -mmacosx-version-min option. I'll do that, will upload the new toolchain.

I am getting the same compile error, except with OSX 10.7.5. I presume the version 10.10 means it will currently only work on OSX 10.10 upwards.

I am really keen to get the Arduino platform going, I have been using NodeMCU with lua but it seems rather unstable and unpredictable. Lua isn't exactly my favourite language either.

Got the toolchain built already. Will upload today.

Updated package has been deployed. Please try updating your boards manager package.
Note that there seems to be a bug in Arduino 1.6.4, in some cases it's not able to delete the tools directory when uninstalling the package. You may need to delete ~/Library/Arduino15/packages/esp8266 manually, close the IDE, and reinstall the package again, if you have troubles compiling.

@meg9468 @claybar Did you have a chance to update and see if this solves the issue?

[meg9468]

I Igor,

Thank you for your help.

My side, I get always the same error.
May be I am doing wrong... This is what I try (on Mac OS 10.6.8):
First, I have cleaned the arduino folder.
Then I git your directory,
Then, ant dist. There I get no error
I then launch arduino IDE (1.6.5) and try to compile a small piece of code, and Java crash with the same error (xtensa-lx106-elf-g++ returned 139)

Thank you

Greg

I added the new toolchain to the board manager package, so you don't need
to ant dist, just follow the instructions on the front page. Ant build
script hasn't been updated to use the new toolchain, sorry about that.

I think I do something wrong....
I add "http://arduino.esp8266.com/package_esp8266com_index.json" then I go to the board manager and click on Install button next to "ESP8266",
But I get "Tool esptool is not available for your operating system"

and the trace :
Tool esptool is not available for your operating system.

I might have broken something. Will check in a few hours...

Thanks for all your work igrr! I am having similar problems. I followed the directions on the front page to install and ended up getting the: xtensa-lx106-elf-g++ returned 139
Error compiling. I found this thread and deleted: package_esp8266com_index.json and tried to reinstall the ESP8266 boards manager in the first section of the front page but it still doesn't work. When I go to the boards manager and try to re-install esp8266 platform it says "Tool esptool is not available for your operating system" even though it let me earlier. If I try to compile WiFIWebServer I get a compiling error: "Tool esptool is not available" Should I try starting from scratch and deleting the Arduino15 directory? I'm on a Mac OS 10.7.5 Thanks in advance and looking forward to digging in to the ESP8266!

P.s. I'm not sure how to uninstall a package. All I did was delete the package_esp8266com_index.json

@igrr Working for me, but not directly as you predicted in one of your posts earlier. The steps I took (may not all be needed)

• Uninstall old boards package from the Boards Manager
• Shutdown Arduino
• Delete directory ~/Library/Arduino15/packages/esp8266
• Start Arduino, install new package from the Boards Manager
• Compile

Other info:

• MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.5
• Arduino 1.6.4
• esp8266 package version 1.6.4-673-g8cd3697

[arthead]

Still not working for me. I tried claybar's suggestions but when I look in my Arduino15 directory I do not have a packages or esp8266 directory. I guess because of the "Tool esptool is not available for your operating system" error i get in the Board Manager when trying to install.
• Macbook with 10.7.5
• Arduino 1.6.4
