Camera V2.1 is not working

Tue Nov 22, 2016 5:47 pm

Hi,

I'm a beginner with the raspberry pi, i bought a raspberry pi 3 an the camera modul v2.1.
I had connected the raspi cam an installed resbian on my raspberry with noobs, I enabled the camera an set the memory split to 256 mb.

Then I want to take a picture with the cam rapsi-still -o test.jpg and I got the error:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ raspistill -o test.jpg
mmal: mmal_vc_component_enable: failed to enable component: ENOSPC
mmal: camera component couldn't be enabled
mmal: main: Failed to create camera component
mmal: Failed to run camera app. Please check for firmware updates


I searched in the raspberry pi forum and on google and make the following steps:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo rpi-update


after a serverel reboots i tried again rapsi-still -o test.jpg but i get the same error message.

I hob somen can help me i don't know what to do.

Thanks a lot.
