Nodemcu-32s can't compile

1

I’ve been using platformio for dozens of esp8266 projects no problem. I got a shiny new esp32s Labelled as NODEMCU-32 aithinker.

I created a new project (NODEMCU-32s was the closest match) and have left setup and loop completely blank for now and hit build. It fails as below.

Fairly fundamental, probably really simple issue. Anyone know if I need to fiddle something else elsewhere?

Seems like a corrupt toolchain to me. You’ve got enough disk space free right?

Try and delete the folder C:/Users/x/.platformio/packages/toolchain-xtensa32/ and C:/Users/x/.platformio/packages/framework-arduinoespressif32/ and restart the compilation process.

Deleted. They were from March this year.
It is now downloading them automatically again.

Then we had a lightening strike and the internet went off.

And that looks to have worked ok.
Great thanks for that. I couldn’t have worked that out from whatever it was telling me.
