Is the compiler not working properly? Strange .hex file

[mrk89]

Hi all, I've downloaded a project from LibStock of an HID keyboard.
I'm using uC PRO 6.0.0 as compiler with PICkit 2 and nothing is working...
The project (zip file) I've downloaded has already a .hex file ready to be wrote on PIC.
When I try to modify the project (only the clock frequency), the file .hex generated is very different from the original.
The original is 19kb and the file generated is 1 kb only.
When I try to generate a new file .hex with the "long file" option selected, the file size is almost the same as the original, but if I try to open them they are very different in form.

The original is like that:

:04000000C1EF0AF052
:1000080000C01EF001C01DF002C01CF003C01BF0B0
:1000180004C01AF005C019F008C018F009C017F09C
:100028000AC016F00BC015F0E1CF27F0E2CF28F098
:10003800E9CF25F0EACF26F0F3CF23F0F4CF24F070
:10004800F5CF22F0F8CF1FF0F7CF20F0F6CF21F050
:10005800B0EC09F022C0F5FF1FC0F8FF20C0F7FF81
:1000680021C0F6FF23C0F3FF24C0F4FF1EC000F038
:100078001DC001F01CC002F01BC003F01AC004F040
:1000880019C005F018C008F017C009F016C00AF02A
:1000980015C00BF025C0E9FF26C0EAFF27C0E1FF25
:0600A80028C0E2FF110078..............ecc

And the file generated from me:

:100000004DEF0CF0FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFC4
:10001000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0
:10002000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE0
:10003000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFD0
:10004000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFC0
:10005000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFB0
:10006000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFA0
:10007000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF90
:10008000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF80
:10009000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF70
:1000A000FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF60
:1000B000FFFFFFFFFFFFF......ecc

When I build the project I get this messages, are they errors and eventually how to solve them?

Do you have a proper license for the Compiler ? If not and if you are using cracked version of Compiler then Compiler is generating wrong .hex file.

Hi,

@mrk89

Please update compiler to the latest version. Also please check that compiler license is properly installed.


Best regards,
