Description

Ver. 2.6.1
Env. : Mesh tab 3.5 IPS resistive touch
Status : OK to build and flash the bin file, but has errors when opening littlefs
Tried : create the files in the data folder, ok to build, but failed when uploading
manually copy and flash the built littlefs.bin to 0xC90000, still has errors

Question: how to build the data folder and upload? (Win 11/VSC/PIO/WSL2)

errors as following :

then reboot again, the errors come down to 3:

[ 6723][E][vfs_api.cpp:105] open(): /littlefs/prefs/uiconfig.proto does not exist, no permits for creation

---

then, change the #define FILE_O_READ "r" to #define FILE_O_READ "w" in FSCommon.h
the error come down to one.

The errors for Could not open / read littlefs/** are normal for first time boot when the files don't exist and subsequent boots for a subset of the files which have not been saved yet either (module / ui config in most cases). Unless you are experiencing specific issues, this is expected behavior.
