RTC exemple error compiling esp32

hi, i try RTC example from " exemple RTC esp32 " but my arduino ide give me an error, or more.
i want esp32 works like a RTC and update date and time when it connected to server NTP .
thanks for help me

the code is this

*************************************************************

Blynk can provide your device with time data, like an RTC.
Please note that the accuracy of this method is up to several seconds.

App project setup:
  RTC widget (no pin required)
  Value Display widget on V1
  Value Display widget on V2

WARNING :
For this example you'll need Time keeping library:
  https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/Time

This code is based on an example from the Time library:

and arduino ide give me this

You seem to be using your ESP32 with an Ethernet connection method, which is a new one on me.
Maybe you should post your full code.

Thanks for help me. I add more information in first post

Is this the version of the Time library that you have installed?

Pete.

yes

Okay, the code compiles correctly for me, but I have two versions of the Time library installed on my PC.

Multiple libraries were found for "TimeLib.h"

Sketch uses 520858 bytes (39%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 38148 bytes (12%) of dynamic memory, leaving 256764 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 294912 bytes.

Your compiler is choosing to use the library that sits here on your system:

As you can see from my compiler output, the one that my compiler is using isn’t called “Time-master”, its simply called “Time” and it’s version 1.5 of the library.

You first of all need to check that you do actually have the correct library installed, and that it’s up to date (v1.5.0 Installed). Do this via Sketch/Include Library/Manage Libraries:

You then need to move the library at C:\Users\steti\Documents\Arduino\libraries\Time-master\ to a place where the Arduino IDE cant see it (renaming it wont work), so move it to your desktop, or delete it entirely.
Re-compiling your code should then work correctly.

it’s work!!! thank you so much Pete…sorry for me, but i’m new. i would like to learn programming , can you give me some advice?

I’d suggest finding a youtube channel that suits your particular style of learning, probably in your native language (Italian?), and follow some of the tutorials.
You’ll probably find that there are more channels limit there that use the ESP8266 for this type of tutorial, and that would be the type of device I’d start with.

Pete.

This helped me a lot
