I know this is not a proper fix but does doing the following solve the problem:

  • Open a new shell
  • cd C:\Users\ben\.platformio\penv\Scripts
  • pip.exe install six
  • Retry compilation

Thank you. That did indeed work. I assume this is not included in the default installation?

Unfortunately, this doesn’t work. Running on Windows 10, no previous Zephyr installation. Installed Python 3.8.2 and pip install six. Also #include <zephyr.h> statement us squiggled and complains about the includepath.

And that returned no error? You made sure to execute C:\Users\da1018904\.platformio\penv\Scripts\pip.exe install six?

What platform (ST STM32, Nordic NRFx) are you working on?

6

Yes, pip install six reports that six is already installed. Using Particle Boron which is Nordic nRF52.

da1018904@DESKTOP-QFUJKU3 MINGW64 ~/.platformio/penv/Scripts
$ pip install six
Requirement already satisfied: six in c:\users\da1018904\appdata\local\programs\python\python38-32\lib\site-packages (1.14.0)

It might be that that calls your system pip and not the pip.exe inside that folder. Can you try the exact command I posted above within a windows cmd.exe?

./pip.exe install six That worked! Thank you!
