[Tinyos-help] "Programmer is not responding" error

[John Kimani]

Some other possible causes to check:
  1. Make sure your serial cable or whatever cable you are using is firmly secured to the computer. If it gets loose you get the error.
  2. Make sure no other applications are using the serial port for communications.
  3. It's well powered.
   
  Those are some the things which generated the error when uploading apps.
   
  Good luck,
  John.

  Hi all,

I searched the archive for this problem and tried all those suggestions. But still having this problem. So, please somebody help me.

I have been installing different applications on my mica2 mote without any problem for quite some time. Then all of a sudden, yesterday when I tried to install an application (which I had installed many times before) , I got "Programmer is not responding" error. I have not upgraded (or changed) tinyos, cygwin etc. I am using MIB510 board . I spent hours searching the TinyOS mail archive to see if I can get any clue. There were some suggestions like changing battery. Others suggested that this can happen if usb is used, some suggested that upgrading cygwin may cause this problem. But none applied to my case. Then all of a suddden, I tried to intstall the application again, and it was successful .

Then today also, same problem occurred. Can someone please tell me what is the cause of this problem and how I can solve it,

Thanks,
raj
