Hi Einar,

I should, one day, learn to read; the error message clearly tells me what to do. I apologize for bothering you further.

Regards,

Jerry

Hi Einar,

Thank you; that got me past that problem. However, I'm still not creating the project; I'm getting these error messages:

Command failed: git commit -m "Initial commit for telnet"
Author identity unknown

*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

 git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
 git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'jerry@Ubuntu.(none)')

I have no idea what it is trying to tell me.

Since this is really different problem, should I close it and create a new ticket?

Regards,

Jerry

Hi,

I assume you are using the "telnet" sample? If so, it looks like you are trying to place it at "/", which your normal user don't have write access to. So you should pick a more appropriate path when you are prompted for that (somewhere within your home directory).

I don't know what I did, but, it is displaying the samples again; so we are back to the mkdir problem.

I used toolchain manager to update my sdk and toolchain; now when I try to create an applications and I select "copy an application", I get the message, "No samples available."
