Arduino Create lto-wrapper failed

[baxev2005]

Out of the blue compilation in Arduino Create failed on TWO different sketches that were previously compiled and uploaded with no error. Board is Arduino Nano. Error message is:

Error seems to exist before but I could not find a solution. Any solutions or should I switch from cloud editor??

Hi,

I believe that this is, unfortunately, an error with the web editor. You can download the app or hang until the error is fixed.

I've been having the same problem

Same issue. Trying to do some last minute updates to a Halloween project :-(.

I recommend subscribing to those threads so that you'll be sure to get news of any progress in fixing it.

This is an Arduino Web Editor specific problem so the workaround is to use the regular Arduino IDE, which you can download for free from:
