SOLVED: RPiZero-B errors when trying to connect to .io

Post by themusicman »

I am trying to change the PiZero I use for my local weather monitoring where I run a BMP280 connected to a PiZero, which connects through my WiFi and uploads to Adafruit.io. However, I have just now attempted to change the PiZero to the new PiZero2 and I get an error

Code: Select all

NotImplementedError: Adafruit-PlatformDetect version 3.15.3 was unable to identify the board and/or microcontroller running the Linux platform. Please be sure you have the latest packages running: 'pip3 install --upgrade adafruit-blinka adafruit-platformdetect'
I run the upgrade command as described... and I get the following error...

Code: Select all

pi@pizerob:~ $ pip3 install --upgrade adafruit-blinka adafruit-platformdetec

Any ideas please folks...?
