Hello Dan,
Our last conversation was about how my Arduino board might not be working properly, so I took the motorshield off of the arduino and tried connecting a Membrane Switch Module to the arduino. In case you did not know, I purchased an Elegoo starters kit for the arduino, so it is not an arduino uno, it is a mega 2560 with Elegoo printed on it. Anyways, I started to run the Membrane Switch Module with the code, and it took a bit of time. I was worried that my arduino is really “broken” in a way. I’m not really sure. So at the end, I unfortunately got an error code that says this:
avrdude: ser_open(): can’t set com-state for “\\.\COM9”
avrdude: ser_drain(): read error: The handle is invalid.avrdude: ser_send(): write error: sorry no info avail

does not exist or your board is not connectedMy arudino is connected to COM 9 at this error.
I changed ports and connected my arduino to COM 3 and this is the error I get:
Sketch uses 3684 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 253952 bytes.
Global variables use 333 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 7859 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.avrdude: stk500v2_setparm(): failed to set parameter 0x9e

An error occurred while uploading the sketchI used COM 5 and this is the error I got:

Global variables use 333 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 7859 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.

Global variables use 333 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 7859 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.

2017-08-21 at 10:19 #13843DanKeymasterActually, the first thing I would suspect is your USB cable. it says your PC can’t talk to your Arduino.
From the sound of things you’ve made a number of changes, including parts with which we are unfamiliar. Try uploading to just a regular Arduino. if that works, then add one part back on, and so on until you find the one that causes the problem.
2017-08-21 at 17:44 #13851AnonymousInactiveSo today, I took your advice and connected a bare Arduino Mega 2560 to the USB cable to my PC. Then I opened the RUMBA firmware arduino page. Then I ran the upload. I got an error, and this is what it said:
C:\Users\Hanan\AppData\Local\Temp\Temp3_MarginallyClever-Makelangelo-firmware-7.11.0-0-g83d73a2.zip\MarginallyClever-Makelangelo-firmware-83d73a2\makelangeloFirmwareRumba\makelangeloFirmwareRumba.ino:17:21: fatal error: Vector3.h: No such file or directory
#include “Vector3.h”
^
compilation terminated.
exit status 1
Error compiling for board Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560.Actually, at first, it said fatal error : configure. h. But then, an update showed up at the bottom of the arduino page screen and it said that there were updates for my board and for my libraries. I clicked on boards and I updated the library, i think it was a library. Then when I uploaded it again, it said fatal error: vector h. Thanks so much!

2017-08-21 at 17:53 #13852DanKeymasterI had this problem recently. Vector3.h was in the same folder as the main .ino file, but it still wouldn’t compile. I had to reinstall arduino and then it was fine. 😛
2017-08-21 at 18:35 #13855AnonymousInactiveI uninstalled then installed Arduino 1.8.4. And I also deleted and then downloaded the makelangelo firmware again. I try to run the arduino firmware RUMBA and I made sure all the tool settings are correct but I still get the same error except this time it was for configure h and not for vector 3. I don’t know what to do anymore and I’m losing a lot of hope that I can complete this project that I really wanted to do. Please help! Thanks!

2017-08-21 at 20:08 #13857DanKeymasterWell… it doesn’t look like a hardware problem. I’d try asking the Arduino software people if they know what’s going on. https://forum.arduino.cc/
After you solve this challenge, there will be another, and another. That’s how building things goes. If it was easy it wouldn’t be any fun 🙂
