CLI compile error - flash core said {"error":"Nothing to do?"}

Troubleshooting
1

I’m trying to compile a directory from the command line and I get this response:
flash core said {“error”:“Nothing to do?”}

the command I use is:
spark flash ################ firmware

firmware is the name of the directory with the source code

help…

2

What’s the full output of the console log?

Were the files pushed to the cloud?

The full output:
spark flash ################ firmware
Including:
firmware/TCPControl.ino
firmware/idDHT22.cpp
firmware/idDHT22.h
attempting to flash firmware to your core ################
flash core said {“error”:“Nothing to do?”}

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve worked on this. Do I need to update the CLI on my mac?

You can try npm update -g spark-cli and test again :wink:

Found the problem - I had compile errors that didn’t show up with direct flash.

Hi @ronm ,
I have the same error message. How did you managed to find the compile errors? do you have idea why they are not displayed while I am trying to flash or compile?
