ESPTOOL not recognizing ESP32-S2 chip for SPIFFs transfer

Question

I have a spiff file that uploads fine using a regular esp32, but when I try on the esp32-32, with a fresh installation, I get:

esptool.py v3.0-dev Serial port COM3 Connecting....

A fatal error occurred: This chip is ESP32-S2 not ESP32. Wrong --chip argument? SPIFFS Upload failed!

Any ideas??

Thanks

Arduino does it for you, but I also tried: esptool.py -chip esp32s2 -port COM3 -baud 115200 write_flash -z ox110000 filename.spiffs.bin — Marr Madden, Dec 09 '20 at 15:19
Look at the espressif documentation here: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32s2/api-guides/build-system.html#selecting-idf-target and see if this provides a workable solution. MN — user78499, Jul 28 '21 at 17:01
Actually we are at v3.1, cannot you upgrade to it? Maybe it's a bug.. — fabianoriccardi, Jul 28 '21 at 18:55

Is the missing double dash?

esptool.py --chip esp32s2 --port COM3 --baud 115200 write_flash -z 0x110000 filename.spiffs.bin
