    The web server software expects to find a PIO to control a seven segment display. If you don't have it on your board or the SOPC project, you should remove the relevant lines of code from the source.

    You can create a new application in the IDE and then copy the source files from the zip archive to the new project.

    hi,

    i tried as u said. i created a blank project and copied all source files and header files and built project. . . but while building project lots of errors are coming up in almost all the files i added. . .

    for example, there is a c-file called alt_error_handler.c in this they have included# include< include.h> with this it shows there is no such files. . .

    like this there are plenty of errors. . . i have copied all files which i downloaded from the internet. . .

    any solution would be appreciated.

    thank you. . .

    In the project settings there is one place where you can define the paths for the included files. Check that they are defined properly so that the compiler can find all the included files in the project.
