What variant of marlin are you using, where did you download it from?

Dear Dust,

I alredy solved the issue, I found many trouble and fixed as below:

1. I use Arduino 1.0.6
2. The file was corrupted

Now all works good. Thank you for your support

Hi All,

Having the same problem as the OP, but I seem to be less self-sufficient
Let me get this out of the way first--I really suck at coding. My modified Kossel was first run using the Blomker software package. The printer ran ok, but I kind of lost interest and it has been sitting since before Christmas.

I got a new computer and failed to transfer all the needed files from the old one. I downloaded the latest Marlin version and also got the Mini Kossel package from Builda3Dprinter.eu. I copied the info from the old config.h file into the new download, but I can't get it to compile.

Below is my error message. Can anyone see what I need to do?

Hi,

about my experience I can suggest you two way.

Can you try whit other new file, may it should be corrupted
Second one, try with IDE Arduino 1.0.6 version.

Good luck!! ;-)

Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/31/2016 04:02PM by davgiuffrida.

@davgiuffrida,

Thanks for the tip! I went back to 1.0.6 and it compiles now.

That's kind if annoying--there must be different commands in later versions?

Shawn

There is another workaround. You can still use the new versions of Arduino like 1.6.10.

Rename fpos_t variables in SdBaseFile.h and SdBaseFile.cpp to another name like fpos_t1 and recompile. Problem is in C++ you can not use typedef and struct for the same varibale name.

fpos_t is already defined in stdio.h which is a hardware library file for arduino.

Can

Dear webliya, I tried to rename fpos_t variables in SdBaseFile.h and SdBaseFile.cpp to another name like fpos_t1 and recompile but whan I use IDE 1.6.11 an error message appaear (please, see picture attached): Error during download of scketch. If I use the IDE 1.0.6 no error message appear.

Wow! so after posting the link last night, I read through the comments on the firmware it referenced. Everyone was barking about it not compiling and such when I saw a tiny "I figured it out!" in the replies. Following it said they got the firmware to compile and it actually worked on the board, adjustments in play and all they did differently was use Arduino ver. 1.0.6.
Immediately d/l'd the version and firmware, which compiled easily, btw, and ran, not walked to my HICTOP, which took it as advertised. I even went in after that and corrected my stepper direction and viola, it compiled and uploaded!

NOW, there's a MINTEMP Err issue to be sussed out but I forsee that being a fairly straightforward fix, as I'm finding a lot of it about.

[www.thingiverse.com] down after all the bold caps entries on the 17th of Oct by bandonj.


Hoping this helps,

Good news: The firmware compiles perfectly well on Arduino 1.6.11 after manually changing all instances of "fpos_t" to "fpost"
Bad news: The AutoHome grinds in the Y-Axis...and I could use some help. I'm posting a new general question on it with more details ("Marlin Rough Steppers & Failed AutoHome"). Thanks to anyone who can help.

Super answer bro thanks

Eight months after the first posting of this problem, no one has fixed it officially. Bummer.
Obviously I have this problem or I would not have posted. :-)
I got my copy of the Marlin sketch from FolgerTech when I got my Kossel 2020 Rev B kit from them.
I am using Arduino 1.8.2 on a Win 7 system. Getting the exact same errors. I have a couple of questions for those that have applied the fix for the duplicate definition of "fpos_t".

Did this fix your problem without generating other problems in other parts of the code?
Were any more subtle problems found with this code?
If any answers to the previous two problems are "yes", is the current solution only to go back and find Arduino 1.0.6 to get the code to work properly?

I will see if these can be safely corrected, but nothing is more frustrating that dealing with someone else's (uncommented) code.

The issue is FolgerTech, they are providing a really old un patched version of marlin.

The real marlin repository has had this fixed for years.


Renaming fpos_t variables in SdBaseFile.h and SdBaseFile.cpp to another name like filepos_t fixes it fully.

The issue is that old versions of marlin used the variable name fpos_t but newer version of Arduino grabbed this name as a reserved structure causing the old marlin to fail to compile.

Hmm. That does not surprise me. Once someone hacks their specific setups into code they are reluctant to change. I think that I'll do the changes and see how it works. There is a "double #define, which is just dumb since they are about 10 lines apart, a _really_ rookie #define with an "=" in it and finally a poorly quoted string literal. Pretty easy fixes those are. Then I'll move the config.h over to a new version AFTER I get the printer working with a known piece of code.

Is there anything in the newer versions that changes performance significantly? I'll need to make all the changes that define the thermister locations, stepper locations, Zmin, end stops etc...

Thanks for the comments,
DLC

solution for the error: using typedef-name 'fpos_t' after 'struct' (YOUTUBE VIDEO WELL EXPLAINED)

So, it means need the Arduino IDE 1.0.6 version. But why the last version can not be use?

yah ..thats the problem..its working with the older version..but not with the latest..i don't know why..

Because the newer version of the ardunio IDE "fpos_t" became a reserved word. Any older firmware that used it was just bad luck.

All you need do is rename "fpos_t" to something else, commonly "filepos_t"


Dont use the older version of the ardiuno IDE, that is just going backwards. It loses lots of optimisations and bug fixes.

This is what I did. I got the new IDE, fixed the fpos problem and all went just fine.
Folger Tech is still using the ancient source as well.

YOU ARE A LEGEND !!

Nothing is sweeter than when u hit a major brick wall but 10 sec later you find that someone has already found the cure to your problem thanks to google and Awesome people !!

GOOD DAY, WOULD YOU SEND ME THE UNCURRENT FIRMWARE? AT THE DUMAS.ALESSANDRO@GMAIL.COM ADDRESSES I HAVE A PRUSA I3 PRO B AND I HAVE ASSEMBLED A BLTOUCH AND THE FILE THAT FROM GEEETECH GIVES ME THE ERROR THAT HAS ALSO GIVEN YOU THANKS!
