[tablatronix]

I was using it, and all of a sudden this happened anytime I run anything...

osx

Any ideas?

I removed user/penv

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

run platformio from terminal I get pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'platformio==3.6.0a10' distribution was not found and is required by the application

[tablatronix]

uncheck use development version, says installing stable, there was an error

[gepd]

what O.S it's given you this error?

[tablatronix]

sorry it was not very obvious in first post

Osx mojave

[gepd]

The fastest solution would be install platformio from Homebrew and then removeuser / Deviot to deviot recognize it

[tablatronix]

Yeah its bizarre, platformio said create a bug report, no idea where that alpha version that doesnt exists is coming from, going to wipe it, what deviot files do I need to restore all my settings?

[gepd]

If you were using PlatformIO installed from Deviot, all files are located in User/Deviot The penv folder stores PIO, and the rest of the files are for configuration. If you remove User/Deviot and restart ST, Deviot will install the stable version of PIO again

[tablatronix]

Yeah I tried all the usual stuff already, deviot didnt do anything when I remove it (penv) and start sublime.

Isnt my saved settings in there also ?

[gepd]

Isn't, you should remove User/Deviot or the deviot.ini file in the same folder

[tablatronix]

ok I reinstalled and the boards.json file has stderr out in it, so that is one problem there, it should be empty or something, so it can be detected and not just puke I guess.

boards.json

So it looks like a pio issue that created this

https://community.platformio.org/t/vsc-the-platformio-3-5-0a17-distribution-was-not-found-and-is-required-by-the-application/2855

[tablatronix]

I would still love to fix this darn macbook, so it stops using global python and pio, I still have no idea wtf is wrong with it

[tablatronix]

This is my path for reference maybe someone will know something, Could it be a problem with sublime ? I have not reinstalled it

/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
/Users/.../Library/Python/2.7/bin
/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/MacOS

[tablatronix]

ok I think I am back in business, I removed platformio, pio from /usr/local/bin and removed deviot.ini, and removed junk from boards.json and restarted
