What firmware did you use? Uploads OK but does not run. Onboard LED stays on. about msgeq7_esp8266_ws2812 HOT 11 OPEN

I don't remember what "boot mode:(3,6)" stands for (try googling) but "rst cause:2" means that the esp8266 was reset by the reset pin. It seems weird that it keep happening when the reset is not even connected, but try connect it to VCC perhaps it will solve the problem

Thanks for helping.
It was a software problem and it is solved by writing zeros to all 4Mb and flash the firmware again. Now I can upload the sketch but it still does not run. I tried v0.9, v1.0, v1.2 and v1.5. All firmware work properly and report their statuses in the serial monitor. However, the blue LED still stays on. Wifi is booted as the firmware's default instead of the one defined in "definitions.h". Any suggestions? Thank you once again.

This is what I got in the serial monitor:
All I know is that the firmware is ok and it says the server is running. However, there is no available WiFi booted up thus no server....

I can connect to the WiFi with the default SSID created by the firmware. Port 80 and 81 are open. Port 80 says
"

Not found: /

"
and that is it....

from msgeq7_esp8266_ws2812.

Hi,
What do you mean by "the default SSID" ? you mean the ESP works as hotspot?
Which of my codes you try to implement? the ver2.0 ? Cause that one should connect to your home network...
If nothing works after resetting it could mean that the ESP stayed in flash mode. You can try connect GPIO to VCC and reset again

I was using NodeMcu boards and they just do not work. I built a minimum system and it worked! Now, the web page says" Not found:/ "I guess I need to upload the equ.html file. But how?

Thank you!

Yeah you should upload the webpage, or just use mine
http://www.whatimade.today/content/images/2016/04/equ.html

and test it with your ESP IP

I would like to try this project, (ver.2, Arduino) , but can not find where the web page was loaded into the ESP8266. There does not seem to be a Sketch data upload file(s) to be uploaded into SPIFFS. The rest of the write-up was well written and easy to follow, and the project look really cool.

from msgeq7_esp8266_ws2812.

In ver.2, The web page isn't loaded to the ESP. The webpage is existed on a server over the internet and just communicate with the ESP when needed. In the ESP there's the minimal code to turn on and off the water heater
