Can't add Esp zero code Matter device to my HA

Configuration Matter/Thread

Hi.
When I try to add an Esp Zero Code Matter device to my Home Assistant, all seems works fine until, at the end of the process, I receive an error and the device can’t be added to HA.
When I look to the HA Matter server’s logs I see these errors:

2024-11-09 10:47:54.223 (MainThread) INFO [matter_server.server.device_controller] Starting Matter commissioning using Node ID 9 and IP fd11:22::f236:9fe:7ec0:5d3d.

I’ve no idea on what is wrong.
May you help me?
Thanks in advance

I have not tried out ESP Zero for Matter, so I’m not familiar with the process, but the error is complaining about “attestation” which is a way for the Matter Server to find out if the device is Matter compliant. Here is where I’m a little fuzzy, but I believe that the Device has to have a Device Attestation Certificate on its end, and I think the Matter Server has to have some corresponding certificate in its Digital Compliance Ledger.

From reading the Espressif’s website, the Zero Code process is suppose to handle this on the device end, so may want to somehow verify this with espressif.
