Duet Web Control freezes when upload button is clicked
-
Hey all,
I have successfully been using my Duet Wifi board for a couple of years now. All of a sudden when I press the "Upload & Start" button at the top of the Duet Web Control my entire Chrome browser freezes. I cannot even change tabs. I need to force Chrome to exit and then start it again. When I then navigate to the website the file has uploaded successfully and a print is started. From that point on the web control behaves as expected. I was running 3.2.0. I thought an update to 3.4.3 might fix the issue. However, the system still behaves the same. When I go to the website using Firefox I cannot even open the upload dialog when I press the button. I tried clearing cache, cookies, storage, and everything else in both browsers and it did not fix the problem either.
Is this a known issue? Thanks

Can you confirm that both the Duet firmware and DWC are on the same version?
Can you open the browser developer tools console and see if there are any errors showing there?

I can confirm that my firmware is also 3.4.3. The browser error log shows:
PollConnector.js:182 GET http://192.168.178.23/rr_download?name=0%3A%2Fsys%2Fdwc-plugins.json 404 (file not found)
but nothing else.
I just checked with another computer. Here, both Firefox and Chrome work as expected. I am using Ubuntu 22.04 on both and they should be configured similarly. I think the browser versions differ. I also installed Opera and it behaves just as Chrome. The upload dialog opens and then it freezes. It might be an operating system issue.

Can confirm OS issue. It was happening with all file dialogs. Duet's was just the first I used.
