Answer 1 · 2024-12-04T14:57:37.000Z

Need help here. Don't have a Windows PC. Can't test in a VM since a different CPU architecture (Apple silicon).

Which Python version is installed and used?

Answer 2 · 2024-12-04T15:28:49.000Z

Do you have the Platformio Plugin installed? If yes disable or uninstall it. If you need this plugin for other projects keep it and do not install the pioarduino VSC plugin.
To have both plugins active is not possible

Answer 3 · 2024-12-04T19:24:20.000Z

I install new VScode on PC where wasnt instaled VS before. After install it, add pioarduino Plugin to VScode. After automatic install plugin VS write me restart VScode. Then i want open main page and this error. My python is 3.13.0 64bit

Need help here. Don't have a Windows PC. Can't test in a VM since a different CPU architecture (Apple silicon).

Which Python version is installed and used?

I've just tried it in a MacOs VM (Apple silicon as well), and it fails there as well with a similar issue. (Fresh install of VSCode and Python 3.13).

VSCode: 1.95.3
MacOs: 14.6.1
pioarduino: 1.0.4
Python: 3.13

Answer 5 · 2024-12-08T03:28:46.000Z

same error, Mac 15.1.1 , Python 3.13 or Python 3.9.6

Answer 6 · 2024-12-10T08:05:02.000Z

same error, Mac 12.7.5, Python 3.11
if in project platformio.ini
platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32/releases/download/stable/platform-espressif32.zip

but if switch to
platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32/releases/download/51.03.07/platform-espressif32.zip
have no error.

Answer 7 · 2024-12-10T09:01:58.000Z

@Basoil This finding is great help! Need to investigate why this slightly changed way of "finding" and downloading the last stable version is not working when installing from scratch.

Answer 8 · 2024-12-10T09:05:28.000Z

Please can all other, having this issue, try the workaround from Basoil?

platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32/releases/download/51.03.07/platform-espressif32.zip

Answer 9 · 2024-12-10T14:18:24.000Z

As @koficek1 said, can't open PIO Home page, or create project , when click this button, the errors are shown.

Answer 10 · 2024-12-16T21:41:15.000Z

Should be solved. Now pioarduino provides only Arduino builds based on IDF 5.3.x and Arduino Core 3.1.x
Having only one build to support makes it possible to provide in branch main the latest stable build. The latest development version is available in branch develop

In short issue should be solved now.

Should wait for the new version release of vsc ext? I just try delete .platformio dir, and reinstall ext, still same error.

Answer 12 · 2024-12-17T14:34:56.000Z

@xsbear Did pioarduino a fresh download? If the old cached version was used it will not work.

Answer 13 · 2024-12-17T15:57:12.000Z

@Jason2866
Yes, I uninstall ext and remove $HOME/.platformio dir, then install ext， when click open PlO Home, still show the error.

It seems PIO Home relevant error：

  66     if not os.path.isdir(contrib_dir):
  67         raise PlatformioException("Invalid path to PIO Home Contrib")

may be contrib_dir = get_core_package_dir("contrib-piohome") return none?

Answer 14 · 2024-12-17T16:05:05.000Z

Ahh, pio home that's possible. Please open an new issue "Pio home crash at initial install"

Answer 15 · 2024-12-17T16:06:27.000Z

Does it work when you open an existing Platformio / pioarduino project?
You can try for testing to clone this one. https://github.com/Jason2866/matter_test

Yes, it works on existing project clone from your 'matter_test', compile successful.

Answer 17 · 2024-12-17T18:40:42.000Z

@xsbear Thx for testing. So the problem is "Pio home"

Answer 19 · 2024-12-24T09:30:05.000Z

This is caused from Windows path length limit. Install and use WSL to workaround this Windows only problem.
You can try to shorten path as max possible. Never use spaces and special characters in path as you do.

Answer 20 · 2024-12-24T10:29:13.000Z

You can also set the core_dir to some (short) path inside your repository.

Just make sure that path is also mentioned in your .gitignore.

Drawback is that it will take up extra space on your harddrive if you have multiple checkouts of your repository.
However this can also be a good thing if you need to build several versions of your project at the same time.

I have long patches enabled in registry value.

Answer 22 · 2024-12-24T10:50:40.000Z

@koficek1 Does not fix the problem completely.

Answer 23 · 2024-12-24T10:54:07.000Z

In other words. The tools and toolchains are ported from the Unix / Linux Universe to the Microsoft OS.
This works more or less good. There are no hacks included to overcome Windows limitations.
NOT a pioarduino problem. It is by design a problem with Windows

Answer 24 · 2024-12-24T12:12:32.000Z

Maybe the issue is with the non standard ascii characters in the pathname? This is also a known PIO bug.

Answer 25 · 2024-12-24T12:36:21.000Z

I have this problem only with pioarduino platform with original platform is compile done, when i create new project

Answer 26 · 2024-12-24T12:46:46.000Z

You can't compare since it is not possible to compile Arduino core 3.1.0 with orig Platformio
Core 3.1.0 uses other (newer) toolchains. You compare apples vs. pears
Anyways you have got answers how to solve.
Look in the example you linked, there is CI run with Windows. To get it going I had to shorten the path.

I tested same steps on other PC and compile is done. Problem is maybe non standart ASCII in patch. Now i try it in WSL remote ubuntu 24.04.

Don't forget to install python3-venv using apt, or else VS-code will not be able to install the build environment.

Edit:
And for connecting an USB device to your Ubuntu within WSL2, see here for some tips and suggestions: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Participate/PlatformIO.html#linking-usb-serial-adapter-to-wsl2

Edit2:
You may also want to take a look at the compile times using WSL2 :)
On my system it is about a factor 3 - 5 less time building, as long as you have your files built and checked out on the Linux file system. Do not build via mounts to a Windows file system or else it will take 5 - 10x longer compared to building on Windows.

Answer 29 · 2024-12-27T08:44:27.000Z

I think my case is similar.
Fully clean install VSC + Pioarduino
project platformio.ini:

platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32/releases/download/stable/platform-espressif32.zip

compilation and upload is going fine
But, run QuickAccess > PIO Home > any of (Library, Boards, Platform, etc) causes an error:

Locked conversation. There is an open issue for the known bug with crashing Pio Home
