What’s the platformio.ini?

Does it do the same when you delete the .pio folder manually and Ctlr+Shift+P → Rebuild Intellisense?

darshandodamani · June 29, 2023, 8:49pm

Yes it does the same even after deleteing .platformio folder manually and Rebuild Intellisense.

Is there any way I can work to reslove this error.

darshandodamani · June 30, 2023, 9:17am

uninstalled platformio extension in the vs code and removed .platformio in the root file. Also, uninstalled vs code and python.
Reinstalled these files again after restarting the pc.

Still gets the error:

^— what’s the answer to this?

darshandodamani · June 30, 2023, 9:24pm

This is my platformio.ini

[env:esp32cam]

platform = espressif32

board = esp32cam

framework = arduino

lib_deps = espressif/esp32-camera@^2.0.4,SD

monitor_speed = 115200

monitor_dtr = 0

monitor_rts = 0

maxgerhardt · July 1, 2023, 6:06am

Can you write that as

lib_deps = 
   espressif/esp32-camera@^2.0.4
   SD

instead.

darshandodamani · July 1, 2023, 11:32am

Thank you that worked.
