Unable to determine hardware for model 3 B plus (BCM2835)

Bug: Pi 3 B+ not recognized by pi47: Unable to find hardware Result: Received an error ‘Unable to determine hardware version’ Desired Result: Pin provisions appropriately

I received this error when trying to provision a digital output pin:

Unable to determine hardware version. I see: Hardware: BCM2835 expecting BCM2708 or BCM2709. If this is a genuine Raspberry Pi then please report this to [e-mail]. If this is not a Raspberry Pi then you are on your own as wiringPi is designed to support the Raspberry Pi ONLY.

I am using version 1.1 of pi4j <dependency> <groupId>com.pi4j</groupId> <artifactId>pi4j-core</artifactId> <version>1.1</version> </dependency>

This is the code that I am trying to execute

public boolean setValue(int equipmentId, String value) { System.out.println("Setting "+equipmentId+" value of "+value); PinState state = value=="0"?PinState.LOW:PinState.HIGH; GpioPinDigitalOutput equipment = gpio.provisionDigitalOutputPin(RaspiPin.getPinByAddress(equipmentId), "Equipment", PinState.LOW); equipment.setState(state); return true; }

I was able to update the Pi4J 1.2-SNAPSHOT build today with the latest WiringPi. I have not had a change to thoroughly test it but it is available if you want to try it again.

Please Note: I have removed the default Pi4J native library static compile against WiringPi. Now Pi4J only dynamically links against WiringPi and thus you must have WiringPi installed on your target Raspberry Pi system. (WiringPi is already included by default in the latest Raspbian images)

@m00fighter

Thanks for the update and glad to hear its working for you now.

As a reminder to others, you must have WiringPi installed on your system with the latest 1.2-SNAPSHOT builds.

sudo apt-get install wiringPi

Thanks, Robert
