Error uploading SPIFFS ESP8266

Hi

I’m trying to upload SPIFFS to NodeMCU

I’ve the data folder under the project folder, (not under src/).

I got this error message :

Building in release mode
Building file system image from 'data' directory to .pio\build\nodemcuv2\fs.bin
Access is denied.
*** [.pio\build\nodemcuv2\fs.bin] Error 1

Tried running VSCode as administrator : same results.

Note : It works when uploading via another PIO project.

What am I missing ?

I’d try removing the .pio directory of the project. And make sure everything as readable permissios in the data/ folder.

Hi

Thanks for suggestions.

I’ve deleted .pio folder, the error remains.

And checked permissions of files inside data/ and data/ itself : all are readable by system.

Any thoughts there ?
