Bug Report

Current behavior

My arduino-cli.yaml

arduino_data: /home/jan/.arduino15
board_manager:

Esp32 and digistump this same.

Expected behavior

Arduino:sam install is OK.

My arduino-cli

arduino-cli Version: 0.6.0 Commit: 3a08b07

My Linux (uname -a)

Linux s61.linuxpl.com 4.4.41-grsec #1 SMP Tue Jan 10 10:26:33 CET 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Additional context

It's been the same for several days.

Can you run the command with -v:

[[email protected]:: ~/.arduino15 ]:$ arduino-cli core update-index -v

and post the output?

[oholen]

[[email protected]:: ~ ]:$ arduino-cli core update-index -v

INFO[0000] Checking for config file in: /home/jan/.arduino15/arduino-cli.yaml

...

Ok, problem resolved.
My arduino-cli.yaml file is invalid.
I added too many "tabs".
The correct file is below:

proxy_type: auto
sketchbook_path: /home/jan/Arduino
arduino_data: /home/jan/.arduino15
board_manager:
[tab]additional_urls:
[tab]- http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
[tab]- http://digistump.com/package_digistump_index.json
[tab]- https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json

The [tab] key should be used only once before addresses.

Thank you masci for your mail and hint: -v

Now everything works.

I'm glad you fixed the issue!
I'm closing as resolved, feel free to reopen should you find something else.
