On my XP SP1 notebook, with a driver for a USB->serial adapter:
enfield:schip [333] ls -l COM3
crw-rw-rw- 1 0 0 7, 0 Jan 10 13:29 COM3
so something is loaded right I guess. If you are trying to use
USB of some kind I guess you could rummage in the Device Manager
under (deep breath):
ControlPanel-AdministrativeTools-ComputerManagement-SystemTools
and see if there is any information that makes sense.
Or try reinstalling relevant USB drivers.
Also, cygwin is supposed to map COMn to /dev/ttySn-1 (COM7 == ttyS6)
so you might try that name instead.

Hi,
Maybe we are on the right way, I try "cat COM7" and I get: "Permission
denied"
It's more funny what it gives if I tape: "ls -l COM7"
$ ls -l COM7
---------- 1 ???????? ???????? 0 Jan 1 1970 COM7
Do you have any idea?
This only happens on my laptop, I tried to work in my workstation
(almost the same windows and configuration) and it works.
Thanks

It could be a problem with temp files rather than the I/O port.
Can you write "build/tmote/main.ihex.out-1" and its directory?
You can also try something like "cat COM7" to see if you can
open the port.

Hello,
I just unpacked my tmote sky motes but I got a problem trying the
test program.
I'm following the "quick start guide":
- I have compiled the program with "make tmote".
- I have verified that threre are motes available with "motelist".
- But when typing "make tmote reinstall,1" I got an error while
executing tmote-bsl:
tmote-bsl -c auto -e -p
C:/tinyos/cygwin/opt/moteiv/tos/lib/Deluge/TOSBoot/build
/tmote/main.ihex -p build/tmote/main.ihex.out-1 -r --telosb
Using mote M4AFBBJQ on port COM7.
Error, Error 5.
Acceso denegado. [means "Access Denied" in spanish]
in MoteCommUart.CreateFile
make: *** [program_no_e] Error 1
Does anyone knows something about that?
I tried to change serial port permissions but it seems to be
everything ok.
I'm using Win XP professional (Spanish edition) and tmote tools 2.0.4
Thanks for any help
Xavi
