Unable to install Arduino Create plugin for Raspberry Pi 4

Projects Interfacing w/ Software on the Computer

Hello! I hope I'm asking this in the right place :confused:

I have a few sketches on Arduino Create that I would like to upload directly to my Arduino Mega, which is connected via USB to my Pi 4. According to Arudino, I have to download and install a plugin to allow me to upload directly from Arduino Create to the board.

I can and upzip the Linux 64bit ver of Arduino Create Agent, but once I try to run the ArduinoCreateAgent-1.1linux.x64.run file via Terminal, the terminal opens momentarily and then closes.

The only error message I could see is "ELF - Not found".

Is it not possible to install the plugin?

Thank you!

Any reason you don't want to connect the Mega to your PC and do it that way?
I use Linux Mint and Arduino Create works.

I use Linux Mint and Arduino Create works.

I am currently doing this for an internship, so I have to use the Pi in the end. My work computer has no admin access so I have to use Arduino Create too.

Ask the Raspberry Pi people.

It works on Linux Mint so nothing wrong with the Arduino Create.

Raspberry Pi running Raspbian needs 32-bit executables. Do not use 64-bit executables. If the executable is described as "Linux" but not "Linux ARM" then it almost always for Intel/AMD CPUs so will not work on Raspberry Pi CPUs (all ARM).

Try the "Linux ARM 32 bits" version of the Arduino IDE on the Pi4 . Do not install the IDE using apt or apt-get. See the following for downloads and instructions.
