then i can save setenv , but when i earse my flash ,it cause one error

 Error: end address not on sector boundary

and here is my flinfo : 

Bank # 1: CFI conformant FLASH (32 x 16)  Size: 32 MB in 128 Sectors
  Intel Extended command set, Manufacturer ID: 0x89, Device ID: 0x18
  Erase timeout: 4096 ms, write timeout: 1 ms
  Buffer write timeout: 2 ms, buffer size: 64 bytes

  Sector Start Addresses:

This error is important. Searching in the source code gives you an hint. You 
should increase CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT to match you hardware.

Cheers,

Thanks for your reply , Stefan.  : )

My flash is 32MB 

and here is my source code for flash environment 

#define CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_CFI
#define CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_DRIVER	1
#define CONFIG_FLASH_CFI_WIDTH	FLASH_CFI_32BIT

#define CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS	1
#define CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT	128

What code did set wrong ??

 Please check your sector size CONFIG_SYS_ENV_SECT_SIZE and multiply with your CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT should not cross  32MB

As I already mentioned, the CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_SECT value is too low. I 
suggest you increase it to 512 and give it another try.

Cheers,
Stefan
