PackageManager is unable to install tool

PlatformIO IDE

Could someone provide TeamViewer access to debug this issue?

Hallo Ivan,

I could provide a TeamViewer session tomorrow, if thatā€™s ok for you?
Just drop me a PM, when youā€™re ready to go.

Iā€™m having similar issues here as well on Windows 10 and VS Code. No anti-virus installed just Windows defender (disabling Windows defender doesnā€™t help) Iā€™ve also tried on 2 different machines with the same result;

Same issue on windows 10 when installing tools for intel_arc32ā€¦manully download and extract works.
if you donot know how to find the download url, check out here :https://dl.bintray.com/platformio/dl-packages/manifest.json,
and you can find the list of tools in the platform.json located in YOUR_INSTALL_PATH\.platformio\platforms\your board\

Iā€™m having similar issues above. I try to install tool-avrdude individual in Windows PowerShell with this command: platformio platform install https://github.com/platformio/platform-atmelavr.git --with-package=tool-avrdude. So, surprise ! Itā€™s work ! :smiley:

26

Yep! This worked for me! I manually extracted avrdude (in my case) and the rest of my issues went away. Thank you!!

This is a known issue, see temporary solution

UPDATE MARCH 1
I tried again the quick solution and it works:

  1. Add PATH variable in Windows with C:\Users{user name}.platformio\penv\Scripts
  2. Open Windows power shell
  3. Run pio run --target upload
  4. The packages is downloaded
  5. Upload now works in PIO IDE
29

It really works well! Thank you.
