I have created a simple ‘hello world’ style Roku app and it builds and installs just fine. However, when I try to view the channel, it does not invoke the screen I’ve set after splash, and when I try to run make run or make install I always get ERROR: Device not responding to ping.
Looking at the makefile, I think this is the error:
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
# CHECK_ROKU_DEV_TARGET is used to check if ROKU_DEV_TARGET refers a
# Roku device on the network that has an enabled developer web server.
# If the target doesn't exist or doesn't have an enabled web server
# the connection should fail.
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------
define CHECK_ROKU_DEV_TARGET
if [ -z "$(ROKU_DEV_TARGET)" ]; then \
echo "ERROR: ROKU_DEV_TARGET is not set."; \
exit 1; \
fi
echo "Checking dev server at $(ROKU_DEV_TARGET)..."
# first check if the device is on the network via a quick ping
ping $(QUICK_PING_ARGS) $(ROKU_DEV_TARGET) &> $(DEV_SERVER_TMP_FILE) || \
( \
echo "ERROR: Device is not responding to ping."; \
exit 1 \
)
I should note that I have set the ROKU_DEV_TARGET and it is available via echo. I can also connect to the device using the IP that returns. I’m not sure why I’m getting this error.
