I am trying to access the GPIO from Linux (Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel 5.15.0-48-generic). I am following the steps from the Wiki: Accessing 40-pin GPIO - Seeed Wiki
When I try to write to export I get an error “echo: write error: Invalid argument”
This error message usually occurs when a command or script tries to write to a file or directory that does not exist or is inaccessible.
Here are a few possible reasons and solutions for the “Echo: write error: Invalid argument” error message:
The file or directory does not exist: Make sure that the file or directory you are trying to write to actually exists. If it does not exist, create it using the “mkdir” command for directories or “touch” command for files.
The file or directory is read-only: Check the permissions of the file or directory using the “ls -l” command. If the file or directory is read-only, use the “chmod” command to change the permissions.
The file or directory is owned by another user: Check the ownership of the file or directory using the “ls -l” command. If it is owned by another user, use the “chown” command to change the ownership.
The file or directory is located on a read-only file system: If the file or directory is located on a read-only file system, you will not be able to write to it. Mount the file system as read-write or move the file to a different location.
The file or directory name contains special characters: If the file or directory name contains special characters, such as spaces, quotes, or slashes, you may need to escape them using backslashes or quotes.
By addressing the above reasons, you can resolve the “Echo: write error: Invalid argument” error message.
