So I posted in GitHub regarding my problem, but so far no success in solving it. The reason I post here too is somebody may experience the same and maybe help to find a solution. Here are the details:
OS: Windows 10 Pro
IDE: VSCode and Atom (tried both, same result)
PlatformIO version: 3.5.0
After updating to this version, I can compile but cannot upload to my ESP 32 (Espressif ESP32 Dev Module).
Here’s my platformio.ini file:
; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
; Build options: build flags, source filter
; Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
; Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
; Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; Redirecting...
[env:esp32dev]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32dev
framework = arduino
and here’s the output from executing “pio run -v -t upload” command:
[01/02/18 08:28:34] Processing esp32dev (platform: espressif32; board: esp32dev; framework: arduino)

[ ...] esptool write_flash: error: argument : Address "Controller" must be a number *** [upload] Error 2
Looking for dependencies…

My project stalls because of this error. Uploading via Arduino IDE is possible, but quite a pain as every time I decide to upload, have to rename my main.cpp to .ino, copy my whole file structure to the new folder (Arduino IDE requires the .ino to reside in its own folder), try to recompile the project and upload. And it was that easy with VSCode and PlatformIO. Hope this problem will be solved soon enough…
Sorry for duplicating this in both here and GitHub, but I really need this fix ASAP
