Print Frozen - RRF3.01-RC12 and DSF 2.2.0

[chrishamm]

Can you please share the G-code file and your config.g? I need to reproduce this problem in order to fix it.

Please see attached zip file (rename from .txt) of config and the separate gcode

Thanks, I'll try to reproduce this.

PS: There are several macros invoked from your TC scripts but they aren't part of the config bundle. Not sure if they are related to the freeze but I'll keep printing and see what happens.

[jay_s_uk]

Yea, I know there's a macro called that doesn't exist (prime.g).
I have successfully printed a variant on that gcode file with it making the calls to the macro and not had it crash.

I'll create a blank macro and see if I can get any further than layer 31.

If you need more scripts or confits to troubleshoot this issue my entire configuration is available here https://github.com/mwwhited/MyMashedDuet/tree/master/duet3/dsf/sd

[mwwhited]

BTW, I don’t know why but when running the debug console I can still access the webpage and ssh but crontab stopped running.

@mwwhited, I believe this is fixed in the new firmware binary at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3azy1njy3ayjsbp/AACquxr2m00eV568RZg5QG5wa?dl=0. Please can you test it.

[chrishamm]

@jay_s_uk The fix will most likely resolve your problem, too. Please give it a try if you can.

@chrishamm

Great stuff. I'll give it a go

[mwwhited]

@dc42 How long should this update take to apply?

it's been saying "Please wait while updates are being installed... " for over 15 minutes.

[mwwhited]

I'm now getting "Timeout while waiting for transfer ready pin" when I try to start DuetControlServer in debug mode.

[jay_s_uk]

I got that when I installed both the expansion and main board updates. It started working again once I fully powered off the machine

[dc42]

It should be very quick, like any other firmware update. I suggest you try updating the firmware using Bossa instead.

[mwwhited]

Okay, I'm back up and running after wedging a USB cable into my controller (guess I should have left some more room to work with.) I'll let it run and let you know how it goes.

[jay_s_uk]

I've updated the firmware on my boards but not had chance to run a print yet. Too busy tweaking my tpre and tpost files.

[mwwhited]

I haven't seen any more issues today... but I'll continue to keep and eye on it.

-Thanks,
Matt

[mwwhited]

Didn't fix the issue. I was working on my toolhead scripts this morning and RPi froze.

[chrishamm]

@mwwhited Please try out the latest software bundle, there have been some more improvements since then. If you do see more freezes, please check the log of DCS (sudo journalctl -u duetcontrolserver -e).
