Hi @jotisk,

thank you for reporting this issue. Unfortunately, I couldn't reproduce this issue on my environments, but I found a similar issue reported: raise RuntimeError('supported_targets for tool %s is not a list of strings' % tool_name) RuntimeError: supported_targets for tool xtensa-esp32-elf is not a list of strings

the same issue was mentioned here. Most probably something went wrong during the esp-idf installation, so you can try to delete the .espressif folder, delete esp-idf and install esp-idf and tools from the eclipse again: Espressif -> Download and Configure ESP-IDF

Let me know if it helps. Thank you

Hi @sigmaaa, thank you for tip, I already tried every single occurence of this problem and its solution but non are applicable, I cannot nuke system now to make clean install. On system is installed old eclipse with ESP-IDF3. but new eclipse should have own paths so they should not collide. I tried also to instal expressif IDE (branded eclipse) to have out of box solution to eliminate any problems but is causing same error.

Tried also downloading complete suite https://github.com/espressif/idf-installer/releases/download/espressif-ide-2.7.0/espressif-ide-setup-2.7.0-with-esp-idf-4.4.3.exe with all paths clean, install was without error except these two, see screens.

Same problem. Downloading tools consistently fails at 97% Workaround: Manually downloading them and placing them into the local dist folder that Eclipse source them from.

Hi @GTCLive, looks like a mirror issue for this tool. Did you manage to install the tools after a while?

[jotisk]

Hi @GTCLive , I have no problem with downloading, problem happens during installation. Till now I had no luck with solution, at moment waiting for new PC with WIN10 to test in fresh env.

Hello @sigmaaa

Yes, dwloads still fails however I am 100% up to speed. Workaround for me is to manually download the tools using the given URLs from the error log, and copy those files into the local dist folder that eclipse sources the tools from. All tools installs fine when tools are stored locally, and so having no issues at all and productive.

As @jotisk mentioned this may be related to other conflicting issues and so I'll eventually try a clean install too. I'll report if this is a persistent issue. I doubt it is an global issue though, we'd be many reporting the same. Let's see.

Appreciate the time you're taking and the efforts that goes into this. Thank you!
