Problem with uploaded stl file

Hi there,

when i upload a stl file (drag and drop on the upload button)
the duet goes crazy, i get then a http error and the duet can not connect anymore.

i must power off a couple of minutes to activate the duet again.

are there more people have this?

Why are you uploading an STL file?
The Duet requires g-code files to print. You need to use a software to slice your STL models into g-code.

i know

but is er no protection or warning?

Yeah, the protection is when it goes crazy. Try sending an .EXE file or .HTML as your next test.

It was not a test. I select the wrong file.
But then i het problems with the board.

I though maybe is it a good Idea to protect that OR something.

I dont think i AM the first one that select a stl file

Probably would be a good idea to have some error rejection built in to the upload function. Maybe this can get moved to the DWC/firmware wishlist section?
