HI, I am using my book about Firebase_Web  based on arduino_IDE.
I followed all until I come to build the example copied from Firebase_send_date.ino.

compile errors occure about missing library  SdFat_-_Adafruit_Fork at version 1.2.4 in folder: D:\Arduino\libraries\SdFat_-_Adafruit_Fork:  Sd_Fat
“
d:\Arduino\libraries\SdFat_-_Adafruit_Fork\src/FatLib/ArduinoFiles.h:122:7: error: redefinition of ‘class fs::File’
122 | class File : public FatFile, public Stream {
| ^~~~
“
after that, quite some more kind alike ereeors follow

What did I miss in te setup?

 

Thanks for help

Hi.
 
That’s weird. We don’t use that library in the codes.
Are you programming the ESP32 with Arduino IDE or VS Code?
If you’re using Arduino IDE, what’s your boards’ version? Go to Tools > Boards > Boards Manager, search for ESP32 or ESP8266, and check your board’s version. Then, please tell me which version you’re using.

Sara

Hi Sara
thanks for your reply
as I did not manage on my windows 10 laptop to go through the VS code, problem free I reverted to my Arduino IDE version 2.0.0-rc7 (Freshly updated from my usual Rc6.
The Database I created is at  https://ttac-iot-app-default-rtdb.europe-west1.firebasedatabase.app/
Within the code are the includes

#include <Firebase_ESP_Client.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include <Adafruit_BME280.h>

 
 
Withe regards   Herman

The 8266 board I am very familiar with, tunning Wifi webservers quite som time,   The boards are NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module)

Hi.
I’m sorry, but I didn’t understand.
Are you still having the same issue?
What’s the version of the boards you have installed (not the Arduino IDE)?
Regards,
Sara

Go to Tools > Boards > Boards Manager, search for ESP32 or ESP8266, and check your board’s version.  That’s what I’m talking about.
