I am seeing a couple different errors using pio remote run. My current setup:
- VM that holds my platform.io project for esp32-c6 dev kit
- Local on my mac, I have the hardware plugged in and am running
pio remote agent start
My platform ini:
[env]
build_flags =
-std=c++17
-fexceptions
[env:c3]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32-c3-devkitm-1
framework = espidf
I’m basically just building a hello world that grabs some details about the board and writes to console. Have flashed this previously via pio remote run -t upload -r -e c6 -v (notice the -r) but I’ve ran into other issues here that I’m avoiding by building locally (to the VM that is) and then flashing the output to the device via pio remote run -t upload -e c6 -v . Everything builds fine, but when it goes to upload, I see the following error:
......

It looks like the command to flash isn’t specified correctly and I’m missing an address, but not sure where I should specify that (or why I need to). Any thoughts on what I can do here?
When I try --force-remote, 90% of the time I’ll see an error Agent has been terminated with a BananaError output from the agent with string too long. I prefer not using --force-remote anyway so I’m trying to get this working without.
