Problem

I'm using platformio IDE in vscode.
Before 2019.10.11, the platformio IDE extension worked well.
But after 2019.10.11, every time I open vscode I get this message.

Installing PlatformIO Core...
Please do not close this window and do not open other folders until this process is completed.
Failed to install PlatformIO IDE.

No more information shows.

What I Have Tried

Uninstall vscode and reinstall it
Uninstall platformio IDE and reinstall it
Downgrade vscode from 1.39 to 1.37
Downgrade platfotmio IDE from 1.90 to 1.83
pip --no-cache-dir install -U platformio
conda install platformio
pip uninstall platform and then pip install platformio
Restart the computer
Uninstall platformio IDE and delete all the folders and files whose names contain 'platformio', and than reinstall platformio
Run vscode as administrator and install platformio IDE
I still haven't fixed the problem now.

What I Have Found

After I uninstall platformio IDE and tried to reinstall it (of course I failed), I found the folder "C:\Users\Bowman.platformio"'s size is only 0KB, and it contains only one folder ".cache".

What I Have Installed in My Computer

Anaconda(Python 3.7)
JDK
node.js
.NET Core
mingw64
Visual Studio 2019
Visual Studio 2017
Stm32CubeIDE

I have the exact same problem. Here's what VSCode says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/eric/.local/bin/platformio", line 6, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/home/eric/.platformio/penv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3191, in <module>

    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'platformio==4.0.3' distribution was not found and is required by the application

I rolled back to the 1.8.3 version and it works.

@BowmanChow It can be linked with broken Python installation. Please open VSCode > Help > Developer tools > Console. Do you see any errors?

junbao-zhou commented 5 years ago

@ivankravets Thank you very much. Now I can see errors.

The error occurs when running commands:

conda create --yes --quiet python=2 pip --prefix C:\Users\Bowman\.platformio\penv

The errors are as follows

@BowmanChow can you fix your conda installation? It's better to remove it and never use again. Please use original and official Python interpreter from https://www.python.org/

So, uninstall this conda and use Python 3.8. Please don't forget to check box with adding Python to PATH.

junbao-zhou commented 5 years ago

@ivankravets Thank you very much. I have fixed my conda installation. Your suggestions are really helpful.

jaime385 commented 4 years ago

I do really appreciate the help of both of you guys... In my case, I had the same issue of BowmanChow but I had to open the command prompt (since I am using windows) and delete manually a carpet just like this:

Windows

RD /S /Q " C:\Users\UserName.platformio

When I did so, In addition to installing the official python version (Link: https://www.python.org/downloads/) because I had also installed the Conda interpreter of python and uninstalled it the problem was solved.

Greetings guys. Thanks a lot.

@BowmanChow What do you mean by "fix conda installation"? Does it means uninstall it? What should I do if I don't want to uninstall conda?

ivankravets commented 4 years ago

@XiaoboD do you use the latest conda? Please upgrade it.
