OS = Linux Mint
All directories (lib, packages, platforms) in directory .platformio are empty.
Any advice?

Please don't use sudo for PlatformIO commands. Looks like sometimes you ran pio with sudo and pio created root directories under sudo.

Solution

1. sudo rm -rf ~/.platformio
2. Use pio command WITHOUT sudo.

I did it ... I am trying to build something... without succes... see output

Wow, that is interesting! Turn off SSL (this is a new PIO3 feature) temporary.

pio settings set disable_ssl true

[profra]

Yupee!!!! pio run ...SUCCESS!!!! .... BIG THANKS....

[ivankravets]

1 sec, I'll disable SSL temporary and make quick release

[ivankravets]

Please upgrade to PlatformIO 3.0.1. I disabled SLL feature.

[ivankravets]

@profra What is your Python version (python --version)? I found interesting information:

Python3 and Python 2.7.9+ include native support for SNI in their SSL modules. For information on using SNI with Requests on Python < 2.7.9 refer to this Stack Overflow answer.

See http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/community/faq/#what-are-hostname-doesn-t-match-errors

[profra]

@ivankravets I have Python 2.7.6 but also Python 3.4.3. ... sometimes I have problems with these TWO... I need both... :-)
I am trying to upgrade to 3.0.1 but I see output..

fp@fp-VC62B ~/opt/aa_myprojects/esp_01 $ pio upgrade
Please wait while upgrading PlatformIO ...

Permission denied

You need the `sudo` permission to install Python packages. Try

> sudo pip install -U platformio

WARNING! Don't use `sudo` for the rest PlatformIO commands.

fp@fp-VC62B ~/opt/aa_myprojects/esp_01 $ 

May I do that?

For your information... I did upgrade on my NB with W10 evening without any problems (Atom IDE)... and on my home machine with Linux Mint later in the night with above problems (CLI)... I don't see any key to this mystery but you could...

[ivankravets]

Ok, let me explain in a few words. You installed PlatformIO to system Python sites. You need sudo in this case. When I said about "don't use sudo for PlatformIO, I meant for other commands exceptpio upgrade` (if you want to install PIO Globally).

You have a lot better options:

1. Create Python virtual environment and install PlatformIO here. You will not have any problems
2. Install PlatformIO to user's Python sites and add user's bin directory to $PATH. For example,

# delete current PIO
sudo pip uninstall platformio

# install new
pip install --user platformio

Now, you can make upgrading without sudo. Please don't forget about adding bin directory to your PATH. I don't know where pip will install packages with --user option on your machine.

... and on W10 machine I have 2.7.11 and 3.5.1... it's a little brighter NOW :-)

@ivankravets Thank you for the explanation... now is time for me to go to bed...
