Compilation error for tasmota32

[routos]

need to compile tasmota32 with my own parameters for Tasmota 15.0.1 but I have compilation issue

• Using Visual Studio Code and PlatformIo last version on Windows 11
• As suggested by many, delete first hidden folder C:\Users\username\.platformio, then launch VSC
• Also I have checked that C/C++ Extension is on Release version (not Pre Release)
• Using platformio_override.ini with only row uncommented is tasmota32:

; *** Build/upload environment
default_envs            =

;                          tasmota-ir
                          tasmota32
;                          tasmota32solo1

When launch compile, I have a failure, with below compilation messages:

My Tasmota VSC compiler environment on Windows 10 is no longer working either.
Even uninstalling it down to the Windows level didn't work.

I then installed Hyper-V on this Windows 10 machine.
In the first container, I installed an Ubuntu client system and "Visual Studio Code"
from the Ubuntu app selection.
Then I downloaded Tasmota and compiled it again.
(Of course, I also installed "Android Studio" and other things.)

It's best to update the software environment now and then create a "checkpoint" first,
so that you can later fall back on a functioning container.

Thanks, but I don't find this solution satisfactory. The compilation should work on VSC for Windows.

That said, I'd like to try the solution with Hyper V and an Ubuntu client, but I would have liked a small tutorial for this method (never used Hyper V).

[HofeBY2]

Hmm,
What´s your main Language ?
Greetings from Oberfranken (Bavaria/Germany)

Here a basic example for Hyper-V:
https://support.lenovo.com/de/de/solutions/ht500006-how-to-enable-virtualization-technology-on-lenovo-computers
As Installationdrive for Hyper-V chose D: or else and not C: Systemdrive, because Systemdrive is slower than other drives.

In between we can download some stuff like Ubuntu-desktop-?.iso :
create a folder like "D:\ISOs" and put in ".iso" of Ubuntu desktop Version.
https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop
also crate a folder like D:\Hyper-V

After starting Hyper-V :

Now start Ubuntu Container and install Ubuntu-desktop

After first Linux login change Video resolution.
https://brothers-project.de/blog/aufloesung-in-hyper-v-fuer-ubuntu-vergroessern.html

Then install "visual studio code" in search window of "A-Bag" App (upper left side)

Download Tasmota-dev.zip in Firefox from Tasmota site.
Open Terminal window, "cd Downloads", "unzip Tasmota-dev.zip"
Start VSC on Desktop
Open Folder "./Downloads/Tasmota-dev..."
Compile every CPU type you want to use to complete installation.
Change your configuration & new compiler run for every CPU type.

After schutdown Ubuntu Hyper-V Session (upper right corner" and close ended Window.
Then make first "Prüfpunkt in german" on the main Hyper-V Control Pannel.

That´s all I have to say.

Good Luck for all you newborns Ubunter´s & Tasmoti´s

Updated my email. My main language is french but english is ok.

Thanks for the liink, I will check

Hello,
Compilations working fine using VSC inside Ubuntu VM.

Thanks for the help

De rien, il y a peut-être une solution pour d'autres aussi.
