Hello Flow Code Team,
I´m in the phase in order to evaluate the new FC9 Main interest is at the moment the new ESP32 part.
Plan would be to purchase a professional version FC9 because I could upgrade from FC professional.
I´ll tried to install the ESP32 TOOLCHAIN, but it ended up always with the following error message:
Installation has failed with exit code -2
I tried a installation at a WIN8 and a WIN10 PC. Same result, same error code.
May sombody can help.
Attached is the installation log file.
BR and THX in advance
Dirk

...add on note. A PIC-8 TOOLCHAIN installed correctly and it is possible to compile.

Hi Dirk,
Do you already have Python or Git installed on your system?
Googling the problem I found a couple of pages but not sure if they will be helpful.

We have had a report that if running the ESP IDF tools we are hosting is failing then downloading the latest from the Espressif website works ok.

Hi Ben,
I can report succes with Espressif ESP-IDF 4.2.
Build completed successfully
Launching the linker/assembler...
FINISHED
Short workflow how I did it.
1. Downloaded the Version 4.2 from the follwing link:
https://www.espressif.com/en/support/do ... %5B%5D=624
2. Unizip in a working folder an copied the extract in a empty folder i.e. C:\esp-idf
3. Run you installer 2.3 and assigined/use C:\esp-idf as a existing directory
4. Follow all other steps like you have defined in you ESP-IDF installation procedure (PDF document)

5. Cross Check with the compiler, done!!
