compote: not informative error messages of auth problems (IDFGH-11810) (PACMAN-784)

[dannybackx]

Answers checklist.

• I have read the documentation ESP-IDF Programming Guide and the issue is not addressed there.
• I have updated my IDF branch (master or release) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there.
• I have searched the issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

General issue report

I followed all the docs but I can't upload an initial version of my component.
No flags to trigger verbosity, no log files, no luck googling this...

Please help.

Note that I succeeded in an initial upload by now but neither the tooling nor the documentation are particularly helpful.

@dannybackx please try specifying the namespace. I think you are trying to upload to espressif/dydns, and your token doesn't have permissions to upload to that namespace.

[dannybackx]

Yes indeed, --namespace <> did the trick.
But as I said, no logging, error message not very helpful, ..

I have a similar problem, however I'm specifying the (empty) namespace:

$ compote component upload --namespace "" --name esp-microsleep
Saving archive to "/home/mickey/Dokumente/late/esp-microsleep/dist/esp-microsleep_1.0.0.tgz"
Uploading archive /home/mickey/Dokumente/late/esp-microsleep/dist/esp-microsleep_1.0.0.tgz
ERROR: You are not allowed to perform this action.

Now errors say explicitly which permissions are missing.
