PlatformIO tries to download non-existent toolchain for ESP32

[oliverschmidt]

The FujiNet project (https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio) requires ESP32 PlatformIO version 3.4.0 (https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/blob/master/platformio-sample.ini#L13).

Since yesterday the necessary PlatformIO environment can't be successfully initialized anymore. It always fails on trying to download espressif/toolchain-riscv32-esp @ 8.4.0+2021r1.

Could you change the line in platformio.ini from esp32_platform_version = 3.4.0 to esp32_platform_version = 3.5.0? Does it work?

[oliverschmidt]

Thanks for taking care of my issue :-)

3.4.0: Fails with Error: Could not find the package with 'espressif/toolchain-riscv32-esp @ 8.4.0+2021r1' requirements for your system 'linux_x86_64'

3.5.0: Fails with Error: Could not find the package with 'espressif/toolchain-riscv32-esp @ 8.4.0+2021r2-patch2' requirements for your system 'linux_x86_64'

Please add the following line into the [env] section in the platformio.ini:

[env]
platform_packages =
    toolchain-riscv32-esp @ 8.4.0+2021r2-patch5

If it works, we will provide the PR to the https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio repository.

Please add the following line into the [env] section in the platformio.ini

I can confirm this fixes the issue with fujinet-platformio on Windows 10.

@mozzwald: Thanks for following this issue - and providing the feedback :-)

[ivankravets]

@oliverschmidt, could you add these lines to the config while you are locked to the v3.4.0 of dev-platform?

[env]
platform_packages =
    toolchain-riscv32-esp @ 8.4.0+2021r2-patch5

[oliverschmidt]

I did so and it works :-) It says:

A temporary workaround https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/pull/594

@oliverschmidt, how is difficult to use stable ESP-IDF 4.0? The dev-platform version is 5.3.0.

See https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif32/releases/tag/v5.3.0

how is difficult to use stable ESP-IDF 4.0? The dev-platform version is 5.3.0.

It's for sure not easy as it doesn't even build as-is:

PLATFORM: Espressif 32 (5.3.0) > #FujiNet v1 8MB
...
PACKAGES:
 - framework-espidf @ 3.40403.0 (4.4.3)
 - tool-cmake @ 3.16.4
 - tool-esptoolpy @ 1.40400.0 (4.4.0)
 - tool-ninja @ 1.7.1
 - toolchain-esp32ulp @ 1.23500.220830 (2.35.0)
 - toolchain-xtensa-esp32 @ 8.4.0+2021r2-patch5
...
/.../.platformio/packages/framework-espidf/components/console/esp_console_repl.c:17:10: fatal error: esp_vfs_usb_serial_jtag.h: No such file or directory

[ivankravets]

Please merge https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/pull/594 as a workaround while you stay on ESP-IDF 3.0.

Resolved in https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/pull/594

Please update your platformio.ini in accordance with https://github.com/FujiNetWIFI/fujinet-platformio/blob/master/platformio-sample.ini

Thanks :-)

I've got the same issue, but none of these tips have solved it! Any other idea?

Thank you all. Regards

@cirobruno, please ensure that you use the latest espressif32 development platform and run pio pkg update in the project folder.

[cirobruno]

Thank you @ivankravets . I'll take care of that. I guess my platform is quite outdated.

Nevertheless, during the dawn, Boris Jäger (sivar2311) has forwarded to me recent post with a solution given by Maximilian Gerhardt (maxgerhardt) which has solved this specific issue. It looks like the abscence of those packages forces the platform to replace them with the latest ones. (links below)

Thank you very much and, again, congratulations for your job.
