I’m new with the PlatformIO environment.
I’m about to create a project, where I can do firmware updates via OTA and I tried the easy example at first.
After prepared my ESP8266 (ESP12F) via USB/UART I should be able to do the next upload via OTA, but I got an error and the espota tool does not find my ESP. The ESP is located in the same WIFI and I can ping it.
When I do the same call with the espota tool which is installed with the ESP-IDF which I got when I added the git repo to the ArduinoIDE it works as expected. (because of that I don’t think I have firewall issues)
What am I doing wrong? (I know this is a very open query )
Does anybody have some further hints about the possible reason for that?
When I try the parameters within a commandline with the espota which is part of the arduinoIDE Boardpackage it works. But I’d like to switch to VSCode with PlatformIO since the features of the editor are much nicer.
