The problem appeared to be with the website (arduino-tweet.appspot.com) that is used by the Neocat Twitter library. The website was not responding. As of today, everything appears to be fine.

I received the missing probe from SparkFun in the mail today!

Thanks for the code Squigley! I’ll give it a try.

What I did to make sure that my Botanicalls would work perfectly was to download version 0.22 of the Arduino IDE. I customized it for my twitter feed, compiled and uploaded it. It works great. However, I would like to learn how to manage DHCP on Arduino 1.01.

Thanks again for you help.

Hi Squigley,

I’m working on the same problem with DHCP leases on the Botanicalls and have made my own dirty changes to get the code working. I’ve completely commented out the DHCP check subroutine, as I couldn’t get the new ethernet.maintain command working with it.

Could you tell me more about the changes you made in the above post? and/or post the code? I think my code will have problems as it never renews the DCHP lease.

Also, I think the the EthernetDHCP, Ethernet DNS libraries are not necessary with the new Ethernet library in Arduino 1.0. Would you agree?

I figured out how to edit the libraries on Mac OS X. Instead of opening the library files in the Arduino IDE, you open them in a text editor. After changing instances of wiring.h, string.h into Arduino.h, the program now compiles on Arduino 1.01. I haven’t yet sent the new program to the Botanicalls yet.

Thanks for the tips.

How exactly does one get the Botanicalls 2 V3.01 working with Arduino 1.01?

I followed the advice about editing the libraries and changing Wiring.h, String.H, etc.. into Arduino.h. However, when I go to edit the library files, I get a the following error:

“Bad file selected: Processing can only edit its own sketches or those and other files ending in .ino or .pde”

I am using Arduino 1.01 on Mac OS X. Is there another program that I’m supposed to use to edit to libraries?

I would very much appreciate it if someone would create and post an updated version of the Botanicalls code for Arduino 1.01.

I received my Botanicalls kit yesterday, and it is also missing one of the metal probes. I emailed SparkFun this morning, but haven’t heard back yet.

Ddavis, did SparkFun send you another probe? Please let me know,
