Building FS image fails on Windows

[d3viant]

On Windows 11, build and upload goes fine but attempting to build or upload the FS image results in this error:

Building in debug mode Building FS image from 'C:\C:\Users\User\Documents\PlatformIO\Projects\meatloaf-specialty\data\BUILD_IEC' directory to .pio\build\lolin-d32-pro\spiffs.bin error: can't read source directory *** [.pio\build\lolin-d32-pro\spiffs.bin] Error 1

Notice the "C:\C:\" part? I can't figure out where that is, but pretty sure that's it.

Update your platformio.ini from the platformio.ini.sample file and you should be good to go. :)

[d3viant]

Nope. Still the same error. After I read your reply, I thought, "I did," but I followed your directions anyway: I performed a git pull from origin main today, then I deleted my platform.ini, and renamed the sample to "platform.ini" and built and uploaded again, but get exact same error as two days ago on Upload Filesystem Image: I'm on the Discord btw, should I just use the chat?

@d3viant

the problem is related to this line in platformio.ini: https://github.com/idolpx/meatloaf-specialty/blob/915158e5870ed8bb81bb3419aff64ffc25a6484f/platformio.ini.sample#L59

try removing the beginning slash. if that doesnt work, hardcode the direct path the the data dir as it resides on your system

[idolpx]

Maybe try just... this works on osx. I will test on windows later today.

data_dir = data/${meatloaf.build_platform}
