Hello

I am trying to port FreeRtos with arduino mega and ethernet of following application given in the link

[https://github.com/nabtodaemon/heatcontrol-arduinomega#heatcontrol-arduinomega](https://github.com/nabtodaemon/heatcontrol-arduinomega#heatcontrol-arduinomega)

So i have downloaded the freertos libraries from the below link provided and included in the Arduino IDE  
[https://github.com/feilipu/Arduino\_FreeRTOS\_Library](https://github.com/feilipu/Arduino_FreeRTOS_Library)

The compliation was successful , i wrote two task function one is the above application and another one is blink program , when i upload the program the upload was successfull but the none of the application is running  
As i am new to freeRtos i couldnt able to find what might be the issue

I’m not familiar with the code you reference from a third party site, or  
the Arduino as such, so can only make suggestions. First is, did you  
try running the application exactly as you downloaded it, before adding  
in your own task? Second is, if you use a debugger to step into the  
vTaskStartScheduler() function, how far does it get (does it ever jump  
to the first task?)?
