On my Windows 11 system, running inside ESP-IDF 5.2 CMD window, I'm trying to run install.sh as described in

https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... pendencies

However, when I run it, it fails with "lzma module is not available":

Code: Select all

What's the proper cure for this?

Addendum:

This line in the script is suspicious:

Code: Select all

I'm on a Windows system, not Linux. And I notd that the .espressif/dist directory contains these files:

Code: Select all

-a----         7/15/2024   2:09 PM      270164567 xtensa-esp-elf-13.2.0_20230928-x86_64-w64-mingw32.zip

So perhaps the script thinks it is running under Linux rather than Windows?

Solved.

Though the document
https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... pendencies
doesn't specify say so, on a Windows system you need to run
.\install.bat
rather than
bash install.sh --enable-pytest

Using .\install.bat the script completed without error.
