ESP32_Devkitc_V4 Problem

[Gil.st]

hello readers,
First of all, I want to say that English is not my mother language.

I want to make a project with an ESP32_Devkitc_V4 and connect it with the Arduino IDE with my mac book pro (Big sur) computer. I followed a lot of youtube videos about it, but can't make it work. I already installed the "CP210x" driver (for mac). But my first question is: What type of esp does a need to choose with a board manager? (I already tested the Dev module).


Because a get an error code when I try to upload a sketch:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse]

1. "fork/exec /Users/gilstruyf/Documents/Arduino/hardware/espressif/esp32/tools/esptool/esptool: no such file or directory
2. Error compiling for board ESP32 Dev Module."

And when a upload the wifiScan:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse]

1. "Multiple libraries were found for "WiFi.h"
2. Used: /Users/gilstruyf/Documents/Arduino/hardware/espressif/esp32/libraries/WiFi
3. Not used: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/libraries/WiFi
4. fork/exec /Users/gilstruyf/Documents/Arduino/hardware/espressif/esp32/tools/esptool/esptool: no such file or directory
5. Error compiling for board ESP32 Dev Module."

Hi Gil.st,
this looks like the instalation of the arduino-esp32 library did not complete.

Please post the output of this command

Code: Select all

cd ~/Documents/Arduino/hardware/espressif/esp32 && \
git pull && \
git submodule update --init --recursive --depth 1 && \
cd tools && \
python get.py

if the above fails, try to run it again, but replace "python" with "python3"
