M5Dail platformio setup problems

BertM

Hello all. I bought the M5Dail and wanted to program it using platformio.
But I am not able to get it to work.
To find out why I reduced it to its most simple form, load the lib debs and include the necessary headers. And it gave me the same errors
I work in linux mint.
my platformio.ini is:

[env:m5stack-stamps3]
platform = espressif32
board = m5stack-stamps3
framework = arduino

lib_deps =
    m5stack/M5Dial @ ^1.0.2
    m5stack/M5Unified @ ^0.2.1
    m5stack/M5GFX @ ^0.2.0

;I had to use the following in other esp32 projects for  usb serial communication
build_flags =
   -DARDUINO_USB_CDC_ON_BOOT=1  ;I had to use this in other esp32 projects for  usb serial communication

;The following was recommended by a you-tube video but i cant get it to work
;platform_packages = tool-esptool.py@https://github.com/tasmota/esptool/releases/tag/v4.8.1.1/esptool-linux-amd64.zip 
;platform_packages = tool-esptool.py@https://github.com/tasmota/esptool/releases/tag/v4.7.4/esptool.zip

my main.c is:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include "M5Dial.h"
#include <M5GFX.h>
#include <M5Unified.h>



void setup() {
  
}

void loop() {
 
}

and the build output is:

 *  Executing task in folder M5Dialtest2: platformio run

 *  The terminal process "platformio 'run'" terminated with exit code: 1.

I believe that the SPI pins are not defined, and I am not sure how to correct this.

Questions:

do i need:
#include <M5GFX.h>
#include <M5Unified.h>
most examples only have:
#include "M5Dial.h"
wat to do with:
;platform_packages = tool-esptool.py@https://github.com/tasmota/esptool/releases/tag/v4.8.1.1/esptool-linux-amd64.zip
;platform_packages = tool-esptool.py@https://github.com/tasmota/esptool/releases/tag/v4.7.4/esptool.zip
in my platformio.ini.
I think they are not necessary because esptool.py is already mentioned in the build output, but it is not the latest version.
And last but not least what to do with the spi pin error.
If somebody can point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated
I know that as long I can get "hello world" to work, I'm going to have lots of fun with the M5Dail

Hello @BertM

I get the same error using platform 6.4.0 which supports Arduino 2.0.11.
You can see the used platform / Arduino version in your log:

PLATFORM: Espressif 32 (6.4.0) > M5Stack StampS3
framework-arduinoespressif32 @ 3.20011.230801 (2.0.11)

Try modifying the platform parameter to:

platform = espressif32@6.9.0 ;  6.9.0 - 2.0.17

This should download platform version 6.9.0 with Arduino version 2.0.17 and with that the error is gone for me.

Thanks
Felix

@felmue it works,great.
thank you felmue.
