Esp32 rebboting while upload through PlatformIO

#1

Hi,

I have the working sketch when it uploaded through the Arduino IDE. But when I upload it with PlatformIO - esp32 board always rebooting. is it due to the different libs, or due to PlatformIO is only for hi skils person?..

I tried to copy libs from the Arduino libs folder and put them into my project lib folder (see picture). To use them I added the string: lib_deps = ${common_env_data.lib_deps_builtin} in platformio.ini - is it the right step?

Capture

also - I have a Backtrace of reboot reason - but as I understand PlatformIO cant decode it yetā€¦

The libraries in the projectā€™s lib folder will always be included, so ${common_env_data.lib_deps_builtin} is not needed.

However, I recommend not to use the libs folder unless you need to modify a library. Instead, just list them in platformio.ini and PlatformIO will take care of the rest.

For your case, it could look like so:

lib_deps =
    ArduinoJson
    ESP32WebServer
    UniversalTelegramBot
    OneWire
    ...

Iā€™m not sure what the libraries LOG_Output and Preferences are, so youā€™ll need to add them to the above snippet.

If it still doesnā€™t work, shows us your full platformio.ini file and the build output.

I forgot to mentioned that you should delete the unmodified publicly available libraries from the lib directory. It looks as if it still takes the libraries from there. But donā€™t do it right now. Iā€™ve tried to reproduce your setup and it looks as if the latest versions of the libraries you are using donā€™t work well together. The fact that you could get it to compile indicates that your are using a very specific mix of version.

Since it works in the Arduino IDE, there must be a difference. And the difference is likely in the libraries. It would be good if the Arduino IDE could tell you which of the installed libraries it has effectively used. But it canā€™t. So you will have to investigate it some more.

I propose the following steps:

  • Turn on verbose output in the Arduino IDE and compare the build output with the output from PlatformIO. There are serious warnings in your output like passing NULL to non-pointer argument 3. If they are not present in the Arduino IDE output, it could point to a difference regarding the libraries.
  • I assume you have copied the libraries from the Arduino libraries directory to the PlatformIO project lib directory. If not, delete the libraries in lib and copy them from the Arduino directory.
  • If it doesnā€™t help, add Serial.print statement to the code to figure out how far it gets and where it crashes.
  • If still donā€™t succeed, publish your project so we can reproduce it.

Actually, it canā€¦ just itā€™s not as simple/straightforward as PlatformIO is in actually giving it to you there in the compile log. Itā€™s a matter of going Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries, filtering by those libraries actuallty Installed, and then searching for the library and checking what version it isā€¦ simple, right? :confounded:

I agree you can figure out the version. But:

  • You might have 50 libraries installed. But which ones has the Arduino IDE now used for your project?

  • You might have included file ā€œabc.hā€. Which library was now used?

  • You might be using library ABC. Does it depend on other libraries that need to be included as well?

The ones you told it to :stuck_out_tongue:

Same applies to PlatformIO

Anyway, this doesnā€™t help the OPā€¦ as tongue-in-cheek as it may beā€¦ We really need to see some actual output from the ESP32 to see if it is indicating why itā€™s rebooting - any crash / error messages? Plus some answers to the questions you asked.

Thanks, for your answers, it helps me getting into the Plarformio approach to get a good result. This was a hard decision to move from Arduino ide where all works fine but ide is absolutely not adapted for useability. Opposite the Platformio has the best usability but does not use the Arduino approach and due to this, for example, it has a lot of problems with converting the Arduino project with multiple .ino files into thePlatformio project (with .cpp) - but this community allows quickly solve all arising problems - thanks for that.

Sorry, but I have one more problem :frowning: after just reloading Atom, Platformio doesnā€™t see the WiFi lib, but it included into a config file and into the lib folderā€¦ what could happen? :sob:

Capture

#10

WiFi is a built-in library for the Arduino-ESP32 framwork. You should remove it from the lib/ folder and remove the WiFi line in lib_deps

Also how do you include WiFi.h? In code it should be #include <WiFi.h>.

Also note that the LDF might have done a mistake there when auto-detecting the needed libraries, so adding lib_ldf_mode = chain+ might help.

After removing a library from lib/ you should reload the the Atom project files by executing pio init --ide=atom (or via a GUI in the extension, donā€™t know it right now)
