ESP32 cannot compile: NetworkInterface.h: No such file or directory

[Yourry]

Hello,
I am a visual studio code user and I can't compile and install elegantOTA on my esp32 c3 mini.
I followed the tutorial:
https://docs.elegantota.pro/installation/

Here is my platorfmio.ini file :

; PlatformIO Project Configuration File
;
;   Build options: build flags, source filter
;   Upload options: custom upload port, speed and extra flags
;   Library options: dependencies, extra library storages
;   Advanced options: extra scripting
;
; Please visit documentation for the other options and examples
; https://docs.platformio.org/page/projectconf.html

[env:lolin_c3_mini]
platform    = espressif32
board       = lolin_c3_mini
framework   = arduino

lib_compat_mode = strict

The main.cpp is the tutorial code, I just changed the wifi data.

When compiling I get the following error:

Executing task in folder ESP32_MQTT_iEM2055_ElegantOTA: C:\Users\Dim\.platformio\penv\Scripts\platformio.exe run --environment lolin_c3_mini

Do you have any idea? Did I do something wrong?
Thank you very much

Hello @Yourry : I am the maintainer of these libs (async and ESPAsyncWebServer). I will check later today.

I had similar issues in another project with <NetworkInterface.h> not there. I so not remember how I resolved it from memory - will check. This happened after a refactor from Arduino.

For the sha include I will check also.

Also maybe try with lib_ldf_mode = chain in your platformio config.

And fyi, you can use Arduino 3 now...

See: https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32?tab=readme-ov-file#stable-version

[mathieucarbou]

@Yourry : can you please provide your platformio config file ?

[mathieucarbou]

I am unable to reproduce.
Here is my platformio file:

[env:lolin_c3_mini]
platform    = espressif32
board       = lolin_c3_mini
framework   = arduino
lib_compat_mode = strict
lib_deps =
  mathieucarbou/AsyncTCP @ 3.2.5
  mathieucarbou/ESPAsyncWebServer @ 3.2.4
  ayushsharma82/ElegantOTA @ 3.1.4
build_flags = -D ELEGANTOTA_USE_ASYNC_WEBSERVER=1

But like I said, it depends also on your includes in your app...
The app I am testing with has these headers in the main class:

#include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h>
#include <MycilaSystem.h>
#include <WiFi.h>

[Yourry]

Already thanks for the quick answers!
For the main.cpp code I use the one from the tutorial:

/*
  -----------------------
  ElegantOTA - Demo Example
  -----------------------

  Skill Level: Beginner

  This example provides with a bare minimal app with ElegantOTA functionality.

  Github: https://github.com/ayushsharma82/ElegantOTA
  WiKi: https://docs.elegantota.pro

  Works with both ESP8266 & ESP32

  -------------------------------

  Upgrade to ElegantOTA Pro: https://elegantota.pro

*/


#if defined(ESP8266)
  #include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
  #include <WiFiClient.h>
  #include <ESP8266WebServer.h>
#elif defined(ESP32)
  #include <WiFi.h>
  #include <WiFiClient.h>
  #include <WebServer.h>
#endif

#include <ElegantOTA.h>

const char* ssid = "MON_SSID";
const char* password = "MON_PASS";

#if defined(ESP8266)
  ESP8266WebServer server(80);
#elif defined(ESP32)
  WebServer server(80);
#endif

void setup(void) {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
  WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
  Serial.println("");

  // Wait for connection
  while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
    delay(500);
    Serial.print(".");
  }
  Serial.println("");
  Serial.print("Connected to ");
  Serial.println(ssid);
  Serial.print("IP address: ");
  Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());

  server.on("/", []() {
    server.send(200, "text/plain", "Hi! This is ElegantOTA Demo.");
  });

  ElegantOTA.begin(&server);    // Start ElegantOTA
  server.begin();
  Serial.println("HTTP server started");
}

void loop(void) {
  server.handleClient();
  ElegantOTA.loop();
}

And the platformio (I copied yours and I have the error):

[env:lolin_c3_mini]
platform    = espressif32
board       = lolin_c3_mini
framework   = arduino
lib_compat_mode = strict
lib_deps =
  mathieucarbou/AsyncTCP @ 3.2.5
  mathieucarbou/ESPAsyncWebServer @ 3.2.4
  ayushsharma82/ElegantOTA @ 3.1.4
build_flags = -D ELEGANTOTA_USE_ASYNC_WEBSERVER=1

There is nothing else, the project is blank.
However when I replace the line:
platform = espressif32
With this one:
platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32/releases/download/51.03.04/platform-espressif32.zip

The compilation error disappears and everything is ok. Unfortunately the upload does not work because of the lack of the ESP32 C3 firmware but that is another topic.
I will test with another ESP32.
Thanks

👍
You should switch to Arduino 3 anyway...
