output path : no such files or directory

[AntoineGirafe]

Hi there, I'm trying to set the ouput path for arduino build but somehow it's not working. I get the error :

avr-g++: error: Board_to_waspmote_LoRaWAN.ino.cpp: No such file or directory
avr-g++: warning: '-x c++' after last input file has no effect
avr-g++: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.

there is the Json files :

{
    "board": "arduino:avr:pro",
    "configuration": "cpu=8MHzatmega328",
    "sketch": "Board_to_waspmote_LoRaWAN.ino",
    "output": "../build",
    "port": "COM3"
}

When I remove the "output" line from the Json files it works ... Any Idea ?

I cannot reproduce this issue

Does it work if you change ../build to ./build? Also try to create the output folder first and try again.

I tried both it's still not working ... in fact the folder is created but I don't know why it can't reach it... I tried to moove my workspace somewhere else but I get always the same error :-/

That is weird... How about use absolute path?

Can you have a try "output": "./.build" ?

I'm running into the same issue, but it says one of my headers is missing. If I delete the given output folder, it rebuilds from scratch successfully, but then subsequent builds fail with the "No such file or directory" error. Absolute and relative paths produce the same result.

Add some logs to check the output path.

if the output path is not exist, it will pop up a message

If the output path is exit, will print out in Arduino channel

OK. For Linux users, important to point out that you need to search for arduino.path in the Visual Studio extension via Ctrl + , and then search for arduino.path. Then enter in the path of your Linux directory and be sure to include the correct arduino IDE version, in my case it is 1.8.5.

Question:

Where do I find the settings.json file in Ubuntu 16.04?
