ESP Rainmaker Crashing Bug - OTA

[JohnMacrae]

What you are trying to do?
OTA update via Dashboard with Arduino IDE-compiled binary.

Describe your system( Hardware, computer, O/S, core version, environment).
Ubuntu 20.04, Dell XPS15 9550, Arduino IDE 1.8.15, Latest arduino-esp32 2.0.0a

Describe what is failing.
Replication instruction:
Take Rainmaker Switch example and change Line 65 to: RMaker.enableOTA(OTA_USING_TOPICS);
Compile, upload and confirm normal behaviour.
Now upload same binary to dashboard with random version number. Create OTA job and force update - watch serial output as you press the button. Continuous restarts.

Now go to dashboard and cancel the OTA job. Watch serial: device reverts to normal behaviour.

This behaviour also confirmed with CLI

Hello @JohnMacrae , sorry for late reply. Are you able to test your issue on development version 2.0.3-RC1 to check if this is still valid? You can take a look on Docs where is explained how to choose development release version in Arduino IDE.

Hello,

as there was no answer in last 14 days, I'm closing the issue as expired to keep our backlog manageable. If it's still needed, please reopen the issue.

Thanks for understanding.

[JohnMacrae]

This issue is still a problem. I tested today on ESP32 with latest Arduino-esp32 2.0.4 and initiation of OTA by topics from dashboard causes a reboot. Surely after all this time (1 year) someone else has noticed?

@JohnMacrae I'm reopening the issue.
