circuitpython: "could not complete raw paste" on SeeedStudio XIAO-ESP32C3
CircuitPython version
Adafruit CircuitPython 9.0.0-alpha.5 on 2023-11-15; Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32C3 with ESP32-C3FN4
also 8.2.8 and 8.1.0
Code/REPL
> mpremote cp data.json :
Behavior
Similar issue was discussed in the context of Thonny (#7158), but the problem is reproducible also with mpremote
(version 1.21.0).
Tried CP 8.2.8 and 9.0.0a5 on macOS Sonoma, Windows 11 and Ubuntu 23.10, also tried CP 8.1.0 on Ubuntu. All these tests failed in similar way – mpremote would start writing the file but after a while wouldn’t get raw paste confirmation from the device (it times out while trying to read a single byte).
I tried to upload this file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thonny/thonny/397679cd8f7eb11b20ba9075c694337f5aace54b/data/circuitpython-variants-esptool.json
When I cancelled the wait I got tracebacks like this (the first line shows the mpremote command line I used):
% mpremote cp data.json :
cp data.json :

Description
No response
Additional information
- mpremote can transfer the file without problems if I’m using MicroPython 1.21 (https://micropython.org/download/ESP32_GENERIC_C3) on the same device.
- Similar problem has been reported by Thonny users also for Wemos Lolin C3 Mini with ESP32-C3FH4 (https://github.com/thonny/thonny/issues/2930)

No, sorry, that was a typo, and is fixed to C3.
USB-serial converters don’t need to literally send XON/XOFF in-band, usually, because they are able just to stall the USB transfer to do flow control. However, that is apparently not enabled or something on these C3 builds. I haven’t looked at the code yet.
circup --host xx.xx.xx.xx --pasword xxxx update
It may not be applicable to you, but I found the C3 board I was using had less WiFi range than most boards I use and the Web Editor would sometimes give me that error when I wasn’t close enough to the router.EDIT: I just re-read your message and the error you indicated actually suggests that your host machine can’t reach the internet to get the full code editor and not a C3 WiFi range issue. In early testing I remember getting that message but I don’t remember why it was happening. I haven’t seen it recently.
