Flashing ESP32-CAM fails with no explicit error #6
Comments
Power issue. |
Wow, that was a bit harsh of you, especially as I definitely think it is not a power issue. Using the exact same hardware setting (I even changed my USB to TTL adapter to be sure), I could transfer the esp32cam example using the arduino IDE and it worked pretty fine, I could stream my video neatly. Also, it seems I'm not the only one with a problem with ESP_flasher: https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/cqe705/could_not_open_port_com5_permissionerror13_access/ This either comes from ESP_flasher or from Tasmota but I'm rather sure it does not comes from a hardware issue. |
Sorry for being so short. The error log you posted is the typical one for a power issue. |
Sorry, I don't know how to get that information. The code from CameraWebServer is available here: https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/tree/master/libraries/ESP32/examples/Camera/CameraWebServer Ultimately, I managed to get it working by installing |
Hey ! I had the exact same problem as you DanChaltiel, with the same hardware, solved by upgrading the firmware tasmota32 to tasmota32-webcam from the web interface !! |
Thanks for the tip - I flashed 4 identical ESPcams and only one had this boot loop after flashing tasmota-webcam binary. |
Hi,
I bought an ESP-30 CAM device with the built-in USB interface (on aliexpress, seems to be on amazon too):
I downloaded
tasmota32-webcam.bin
from http:https://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/ and flashed it to my device using ESP Flasher on Windows 10 x64.Unlike many tutorials I saw, I had to press the "Flash" hardware button while pressing "Flash ESP" on the software, but I had the same results by wiring IO0 to GND.
Here is the output. As you can see, the logs don't show:
ESP-flasher output
If I click on "View Logs", I get this error:
Of course, there was never any Tasmota hotspot available, I checked at every step.
If I reset the device (without IO0 wired to GND), I get logs that are sometimes unreadable (like if the baudrate was off) and the device seems to reboot every second. I can obviously not check the output with a better power source than my computer USB, but the device seems to reboot with a powerful (3A) source as well, and it doesn't provide more wifi hotspot.
Here are an example of (readable) log output:

I also tried the older release that was used in the tutorial (v9.3.1, the current version is v9.5.0).
Is there any chance this might come from ESP Flasher?
