I been try before to uninstall the entire ESPhome module & delete the ESPhome folder in home assistant, restart HA & install back ESPhome but seem like problem still occur. I also try change another ESP32 board. I not sure if my code is wrong but I just follow the official documentation from the ESPhome.io website.

1 year ago That's where you got the initial install, but that's not where you're doing the compiling. There should be a menu on the dashboard card for the device that has a "clean" option on it.

I was having similar issue with my BT Proxy after I decided to add "sensor:" to the code. No matter what I did, I got the error. Landed on this page from google search and @ssieb you saved my day ;) Now it compiles properly with no errors!
@lysiong I am not sure if the indentations has anything to do with it but below is how I have mine.
sensor:
- platform: uptime
name: Uptime SensorUpdate: I decided to add another sensor and again same error. So I did a clean build option again and then Install and all went well.
sensor:
- platform: uptime
name: Uptime Sensor
- platform: template
name: BTProxy Free Memory
lambda: return heap_caps_get_free_size(MALLOC_CAP_INTERNAL) / 1024;
unit_of_measurement: 'kB'
state_class: measurementUpdate2: I decided to add the wifi sensor also and at the same time played with the indentation. All is well even if I added the indentation. I did however have to do the clean build option before the install.
sensor:
- platform: uptime
name: "${friendly_name} - Uptime Sensor"
- platform: wifi_signal
name: "${friendly_name} - WiFi Signal"
update_interval: 60s
- platform: template
name: "${friendly_name} - Free Memory"
lambda: return heap_caps_get_free_size(MALLOC_CAP_INTERNAL) / 1024;
unit_of_measurement: 'kB'
state_class: measurement@rleongcs
May I know that sensor is it add it to ESP.yaml file? maybe I add the sensor to wrong file :( below is my actual esp.yaml file content. that sample sensor I add didn't work as well, come out error when install.
substitutions:
name: "esp32-proxy1"
packages:
esphome.bluetooth-proxy: github://esphome/bluetooth-proxies/esp32-generic.yaml@main
esphome:
name: ${name}
name_add_mac_suffix: false
api:
encryption:
key: xxx
wifi:
ssid: !secret wifi_ssid
password: !secret wifi_password
#sensor:
# -platform: wifi_signal
# name: "WiFi Signal Sensor"
# update_interval: 60s
sensor:
- platform: uptime
name: Uptime Sensor@rleongcs I add the sensor in here
is this the correct place that I add the uptime sensor & other sensor as well?
