Please try the following steps to troubleshoot this:


1. From the command line, run "python3 -m pip install virtualenv" and see if this works

2. After that, try to create a virtual environment manually: "python3 -m virtualenv myenv" in some directory you can write to (e.g. C:\ESP)

3. Delete C:\\ESP\\.espressif\\python_env\\idf3.3_py3.7_env directory

4. Run the installer again

If any of the steps fail, please report back. The first two steps are to make sure your Python3 installation is functioning well.

Hi, I'm also having a trouble with installing esp-idf tool setup. I get the following log with error code -2. Could you please help me with this issue?

Hi! I encountered the same problem when installing esp-idf, which annoyed me. Have you solved the problem? Can you give me some help?

[dipen@1337lab.io]

Namaste ESP_igrr and Forum Members,

I'm encountering the same error when running the esp-idf-tools-setup-2.3.exe.

1. From the command line, run "python3 -m pip install virtualenv" and see if this works

2. After that, try to create a virtual environment manually: "python3 -m virtualenv myenv" in some directory you can write to (e.g. C:\ESP)

3. Delete C:\\ESP\\.espressif\\python_env\\idf3.3_py3.7_env directory

4. Run the installer again

I performed the first two steps as suggested and, the commands executed successfully w/o any errors. However, I could not find the directory path as suggested in step #3. So, ignoring step #3, I proceeded to step #4 but still got the same error.

Kindly suggest how to proceed further.

Thanks | Regards,
Dipen

I really need your help,thanks!

Problem described above seems like TLS issue.
dl.espressif.com is hosted with enabled TLSv1.2 so it should work also on OSes like Windows 8 which does not have support for TLSv1.3.

Try following steps to mitigate the problem:
Option #1:
- open https://dl.espressif.com/pypi in Internet Explorer or Edge, this should refresh certificates for the site
- repeat installation process

Option #2:
- run installation with Online Installer https://github.com/espressif/idf-instal ... 13-beta-08
- check the second screen with System Check whether you see any error when connecting to dl.espressif.com
- in case of error, please post the message

Hello,
I got the same problem on macOS and I can't use the windows Online Installer.
Option #1 didn't work, too.
What can I do?
