here is the offending code:

Looks like you are missing the preprocessor definition "MPLAB_PIC18F_PORT". Look in portable.h to see how it is used. This is defined in the demo application project. Have you changed the project settings at all?

I loaded the demo MPLAB files and discovered that there are compile switched and project settings that need to be set… so it now compiles and runs with a few minor warning on type casting…

Thanks for your help
a few like this…
C:\FreeRTOS\Source\list.c:94:Warning [2066] type qualifier mismatch in assignment

C:\FreeRTOS\Demo\PIC18_MPLAB\serial\serial.c:186:Warning [2074] location PRODH specified in the interrupt save list is redundant

You must have MPLAB_PIC18F_PORT defined. This should be defined in the MPLAB project. Have you changed the project at all? To be sure you can add the line

#define MPLAB_PIC18F_PORT

to the top of source\include\portable.h. This should fix the problem but does not explain why you would get the problem in the first place if you are using an unmodified demo project file.

It sounds like you have lost all the project settings. I would guess that you opened the project directly rather than opening the workspace. The workspace should have three projects within it. Sometime MPLAB requires you to set an option to permit multiple projects within a workspace.

Anyway - can you confirm that you opened the "Workspace" as per the instructions, not a project.

The error you are getting now is because the linker is using an incorrect linker script. It should be using the one from the FreeRTOS.org directory, not the one from the MPLAB installation directory.

Regards.
