ERROR in Build FileSystem Image

wmarchewka · October 21, 2022, 2:47pm

I opened a project that specified a custom partition table for an esp32. I use platformio to Build Filesystem Image and Upload FileSystem Image. That worked fine as the compiled code uploaded and ran.

Now, in a new project, i want to put the default filesystem partition back on. When i do a Build Filesystem image, it is looking for “partitions_singleapp.csv”. I realize this is the “default” partition table but cannot find it.

ERROR:
Could not find the any filesystem section in the partitions table /Users/xxx/.platformio/packages/framework-espidf/components/partition_table/partitions_singleapp.csv

But if i click the error, the “partitions_singleapp.csv” open and appears correct.

EDIT:
In the menuconfig, i do have “Single factory app, no OTA” selected under Partition Table.

Any ideas ?

Absolutely correct. Do you see a filesystem storage section in

github.com

espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/components/partition_table/partitions_singleapp.csv

# Name,   Type, SubType, Offset,  Size, Flags
# Note: if you have increased the bootloader size, make sure to update the offsets to avoid overlap
nvs,      data, nvs,     ,        0x6000,
phy_init, data, phy,     ,        0x1000,
factory,  app,  factory, ,        1M,

? Compare to

github.com

espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/examples/storage/spiffsgen/partitions_example.csv

# Name,   Type, SubType, Offset,  Size, Flags
# Note: if you have increased the bootloader size, make sure to update the offsets to avoid overlap
nvs,      data, nvs,     0x9000,  0x6000,
phy_init, data, phy,     0xf000,  0x1000,

Refer to e.g. platform-espressif32/examples/espidf-storage-spiffs at develop · platformio/platform-espressif32 · GitHub. You must give your project a custom partition table with a storage section and reference it in both the platformio.ini and menuconfig.
