Library doesn't install

Development Tools IDE 2.x
1

Hello, I've just installed the arduino software, but for some reason, the Arduino_Builtin library fails to install. This is the message I get:

Failed to install library: 'Arduino_BuiltIn:1.0.0'. 13 INTERNAL: Can't download library: Get "https://downloads.arduino.cc/libraries/github.com/arduino-libraries/Servo-1.3.0.zip?query=depends": read tcp [2a06:4944:1802:d670::c01b]:54573->[2606:4700::6812:a15]:443: wsarecv: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

I've already downloaded the dependencies that it needs, do I don't think that's the problem. I'd appreciate the help a lot :slight_smile: .

Hi @iluvreeses , welcome to the forum!

Since this was posted in the IDE 2.x category, I assume that you are using IDE 2. The library you are referring to is 5 years old and made before IDE 2.x became available.

It would probably be far easier to use the Library Manager in IDE 2 to install the libraries that you require. Just click the book icon on the left hand side of the IDE window and type the name of the actual library that you need in the search box. Find that library you need from the list and click the Install button.

ArduinoBuiltin is only a shell library that has the sole purpose of downloading and installing a number of dependencies:

depends=Ethernet,Firmata,Keyboard,LiquidCrystal,Mouse,SD,Servo,Stepper,TFT

Have you already installed those dependencies? If you have, then you don't need to do anything else. You already have everything that you need. If you have downloaded but not yet installed, then just install the required libraries via the Library Manager.

wsarecv: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

This error looks like a process on the internet for your IDE session seemed to stop working as you were installing the .ZIP library. The IPV6 (2606:4700::6812:a15) maps to CLOUDFLARE in SF, CA, USA, which has recently been part of internet outages worldwide. Maybe it saw the zip file as malicious.

Try again. I just installed the zip file successfully...

IDE >> SKETCH >> INCLUDE LIBRARY >> ADD ZIP LIBRARY >> (your zip file)
