Pulse SDK Version 1.1.2 (Apr 8, 2011)
- reinstated old compileandload script due to compatability issues on different platforms (-n still fixed)

Some people reported having problems sending resources with the compileandload script in SDK 1.1.1 on mac. If mac users could try out the new SDK 1.1.2 and post the results in this thread it would be much appreciated.

Hi Ryan,

I am on Mac, downloaded and installed the SDK 1.1.2. I can get the initial step in http://www.getinpulse.com/guide/mac/ works, but when I tried to follow the example http://www.getinpulse.com/guide/watchface/. I run into problems. Here is my steps:

1. download and install SDK1.1.2.
2. following the steps in http://www.getinpulse.com/guide/mac/.
3. copy the resources from examples/featured_apps/Analog Watchface/resources to pulse-sdk/resources
4. python tools/resource_packer/resource_packer.py, got error: resource server is broken. please contact [email protected].

Full log below. Thanks!

resource server is broken. please contact [email protected]

Turns out the resource server was down for a few hours. The server has been reset and is working again.

Thanks Ryan for the quick response. I got another error when following the example in http://www.getinpulse.com/guide/watchface/.

python compileandload.py –r –f ./resources/inpulse_resources.bin –d python compileandload.py –r –f ./resources/inpulse_resources.bin –d 00:50:c2:xx:xx:xx

and got the error:

...
compile success!

invalid, missing, or unavailable bd addr

The invalid bd addr indicates that the 00:50:c2:??? is basically incorrect. You're replacing the x's with the actual unique identier right?

Here is example:

Yes, I was using a a real number in the command, not the 'x'. But it failed as I described. I just put it as 'x' when posting the message here. Thanks!
