Doxygen - unable to load isutils.dll - doxygen

I'm installing Doxygen on Windows 8.1 64 bit. At the end of installation, it throws up "unable to load isutils.dll" followed by an unable to set PATH error. I'm not bothered about the PATH error, I presume that is just a case of manually adding "C:\Program Files\doxygen\bin" to the PATH but what is the isutils.dll error about and how do I fix it?
Edited to add this:
I don't know if this is related or not but when I run the Doxygen wizard after installation and click the Select... button for scan/store directory, the application permanently shows the busy icon and stops responding, I have to break out of it using Task Manager.

I got a response on the Doxygen mailing list from Dimitri van Heesch, the developer of Doxygen. He said that this appeared to be a glitch in the installer script which he has fixed. I downloaded the new version and it installed with no issues.

esp-idf build fails with "fatal error: esp_wifi.h: No such file or directory"

I am a student who has gotten a part time job embedded system programming. I am given a program the company uses, and asked to understand it. This is a working program. Therefore, the project can be built and flashed on ESP32 by the developers with no problem. So, the code and CMake files should have no issues. However, I cannot build the program either with VSCode extension nor with idf.py. In fact, I cannot build esp-idf examples from the official website, either.
Note: I am new to StackOverflow as well as to ESP32, so sorry if I made any mistakes here. If this post is problematic in any way, please inform me.
The error message from the terminal is shown here
I was initially using VSCode on Windows 10 (Windows is not activated). At first, ESP extension was completely failing to start the building process because it could not locate the tools. I was getting "could not be located" errors for all the tools. Below is a list of what I did in this setting:
I had v5.0.0 for esp-idf downloaded from Espressif server. I deleted it and tried v4.3.3 and then I tried to download from Github server. I downloaded the requirements for idf.py scripting environment and completed the settings for it as described by the Espressif's documentation.
I manually set the environment variables for IDF_PATH and PATH for both the user and for the system.
After 2, the initial error was gone. Unfortunately, I had a new error which indicated that ".elf" file for the project output could not be found. I do not exactly recall the error but if it is integral to the problem's solution I can try to replicate this issue.
I tried to delete and reinstall VSCode. I tried running VSCode with admin authority.
I tried changing the IDF_TOOLS_PATH in the VSCode esp-idf extension configurations from ".espressif" to "esp\esp-idf".
At this point, I moved to try to build the project on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS:
In Ubuntu, I got the fatal error: esp_event.h: No such file or directory error.
It does not seem to be a common issue and I could not find much about it online.
I followed the Linux setup steps in the documentation. It said that only step 1 (Downloading the prerequisites) was necessary for the VSCode extension.
I decided to try the "master branch" from esp-idf configurations as well. After I downloaded the master branch, the error changed to the current version: 'fatal error: esp_wifi.h: No such file or directory'
I also tried the idf.py in Ubuntu but I got the same error.
Both in Ubuntu and in Windows, the Doctor Command returns nothing. It does not even open the terminal or any window. I am not sure what it should return but some online discussions were asking about its return so I wanted to note it here.
Edit: When I tried the examples on Ubuntu, they actually build just fine. Doctor Command also works with examples.
However, the main code has still issues. Initially, I assumed I made some mistakes with esp-idf configurations. But, perhaps that was not the case.
I had the same problem and ended up editing my project's CMakeLists.txt. When I added "esp_wifi" to the "REQUIRES" list, it worked for me:
idf_component_register(
SRCS "main.c"
INCLUDE_DIRS res
EMBED_FILES res/settings.html
REQUIRES esp_wifi
)

Installing Mac VSCode extensions now failing with error: Corrupt ZIP: end of central directory record signature not found

After upgrading work Mac to Big Sur, now unable to install any VS Code extensions, where I was able to before. The error message that I am receiving is the following:
[2021-08-18 14:04:53.663] [renderer1] [error] ["validating: Corrupt ZIP: end of central directory record signature not found"," at x.downloadInstallableExtension (vscode-file://vscode-app/Applications/Visual%20Studio%20Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/sharedProcess/sharedProcessMain.js:54:201021)"," at async x.installGalleryExtension (vscode-file://vscode-app/Applications/Visual%20Studio%20Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/sharedProcess/sharedProcessMain.js:54:197524)"," at async vscode-file://vscode-app/Applications/Visual%20Studio%20Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/sharedProcess/sharedProcessMain.js:54:194563"]
I have looked at several stack overflow threads like this one:
Error "end of central directory record signature not found" while installing ionide-fsharp in vscode
I can confirm the following:
My company runs a corporate transparent proxy, so I do not have to enter a proxy in the settings. I've confirmed that I do not have this set.
I have followed the instructions to download and install the vsix file manually
Downloading looks to be successful, the python extension is 16.5 MB
The installation portion of the downloaded file fails with the same error
Confirmed that I do not have a disk space issues as someone mentioned in the above thread
I have reinstalled VSCode per these instructions: How to completely uninstall vscode on mac
I've attempted installations of VSCode 1.59 (original version) and 1.58.2, same errors
Any suggestions on where to go from here? I'm not able to install this locally, and can't seem to figure out what may be causing the issue.
I have confirmed with other team members that they're not running into my issue, and they have successfully upgraded to Big Sur. I don't think that's the cause, but that's the only change to my workstation that I can think of.
This worked for me:
Try downloading the vsix file of the extension from its github release page (make sure the extension version is compatible with your vscode version)
Disable your internet connection and install the vsix file via vscode.

Resolve "Binaries not found" error in Postgres.app

I'm following these instructions to set up PostgreSQL on my Mac. Step 3 says I need to click Initialize, however there's no such button. Instead, the error message "Binaries not found" is displayed and, if I click the similar Start button, the error message "The binaries for this PostgreSQL server were not found" is displayed. I just downloaded a clean version of Postres.app, so not sure why this wouldn't be working right out of the box.
How to resolve?
I found this answer by stromal on Postgres.app's GitHub:
I solved it by opening up the application's sliding windows, than clicked a new server with the plus icon, than that had initialization button, than clicked initialise than it worked.
The hidden sidebar slideout was tricky. This solution worked for me!
Postgres.app's troubleshooting and support page says the following:
To fix this issue, make sure that the correct binaries for your server are in
/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/
without telling you how to actually do that.
One way to do it is to download "Postgres.app with all currently supported PostgreSQL versions" from Postgres.app's download page and replace any other versions you have. The app will then open without the "Binaries not found" error, assuming that you are only using supported PostgreSQL versions.
Follow the official uninstall instructions:
Quit Postgres.app & drag it to the Trash
Delete the data directory (default location: ~/Library/Application Support/Postgres)
Delete preferences for Postgres.app by executing the following command: defaults delete com.postgresapp.Postgres2
Remove the $PATH config for the command line tools (optional): sudo rm /etc/paths.d/postgresapp
Follow the official installation instructions.

Eclipse save error when trying to open the design view of a synapse config file in WS02 Developer Studio

I'm following the tutorials and samples of the official WSO2 ESB documentation. When I create (or load) a synapse configuration in the WSO2 Developer Studio I'm getting the error as shown below:
Save problems
Save could not be completed.
Reason:
resources\sunErrorHandler.esb_diagram (The system cannot find the path specified)
This error shows up when I want to open anything in the Design view. Even when I'm not trying to save anything.
So far I have tried to add the path specified in the error, but without success. I already found a workaround to be able to save and deploy my ESB configurations. By using "Save as" I'm able to keep the changes I made in the XML files. However the error stills shows up when I open the new version of the file.
Does anyone know a better solution to permanently resolve this error message?
I had this problem as well, running eclipse.exe as administrator fixed it.
Issue remains unresolved for my Eclipse + DevStudio 3.8.0 install on a Windows 10 environment. However since I was experiencing some other issues with the WSO2 ESB I decided to migrate to a Linux (Ubuntu) environment. This seems to work much better, the eclipse does not seem to have this issue on Linux.
Eclipse want to write in C:\Program Files\eclipse\resources. I solve problem by adding full permissions to group users on folder C:\Program Files\eclipse
If this happens in Mac you can provide the required permission to the "/Applications/IntegrationStudio.app/Contents/MacOS/resources" folder.

Eclipse for php on Mac OSX 10.5: "Animation Start" error

I am having a terrible time getting Eclipse with php/pdt installed on my older 2006 MacBook running 10.5.8.
I have MAMP installed and running php 5.3.5. That works fine. The zend debugger information shows up correctly in phpinfo() and I have dummy.php in the correct location. 127.0.0.1 is allowed in the config file.
I have eclipse itself installed. I also have tried "Eclipse for php Developers" v3.0.2.
Both installations return errors when I try and run or debug a script. I am trying to use Zend Debugger.
The error is:
"Animation Start has encountered a problem". An Internal error has occurred.
An internal error has occurred.
java.lang.NullPointerException
I have the php executable set as
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/php (CLI)
Suggestions?
The problem with the "Animation Start has encountered a problem" error dialog doesn't have to do with the php scripts but rather is just an UI quirk/error that is irritating and is likely because of a mis-configured dock:icon property on the eclipse.ini (or whatever eclipse product the zend product uses).
Find the root executable that launches eclipse-based product.
Open up the application executable (.app) package contents
Go to the Contents/MacOS/ folder
Edit the ini file
Make sure that you have this line correctly specificed:
-Xdock:icon=../Resources/<NameofIconFile>.icns
Then restart eclipse/zend
Now you should be able to invoke scripts and not see that invalid error dialog.
You can uncheck "launch in background" in the "common" tab of debug/run configuration.
Ok, I wanted to simply comment on my "success", following gamerson's answer with a slight adaptation... But it seems like I don't have enough "rep" to do that yet, so here goes ;-)
I had this annoying issue for a little while, and also had a second copy of eclipse for java installed on my macbook. It seems like my eclipse pdt did not contain any .icns files (I did a full recursive search of the dir with "find ."... So I thought, I'll copy it from that other eclipse app I have. And I made sure the ini config file (mentioned by gamerson) had the correct path. And voila! No more of that annoying error popup in eclipse, and also the dock where I had a link to the app now has a nice icon (which before was some ugly "generic" icon with pencils and paper, that all makes sense now). Only downside is that I now have two similar dock icons (the PDT one and the Java one lol) but that is a totally minor annoyance. I guess I could "hack" my dock and give it a funky icon while at it ;-)
Thanks internets!
