Hello,

I trying to download and run the project Web Server from the Micro Python course.

I am able to install the firmware ok on the esp8266, but received some of the basic errors when trying to download and run the main.py and boot.py files.

I managed to download and run the files ok.

Problem is when I press the RNT button to reload the program I receive garbled characters on the screen…

Here’s what I see on the repl.

Ready to download this file,please wait!
………….
download ok

os.listdir(‘.’)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “<stdin>”, line 1, in <module>
NameError: name ‘os’ isn’t defined
>>>

reflush tree false

Any help is appreciated.

Hi.
What project are you following?
Does it have a boot.py and main.py?
Make sure you upload the boot.py first.
If you still have problems, copy the contents of the boot.py file to the beginning of the main.py.
Regards,
