DCS 2.1.0 fatal error, wont load up
-
they released 2.1.1 just a few hours ago, might be worth trying.
-
@bearer thanks for the info. I just started the update and am stuck at "setting up RepRapFirmware"
Bah.Setting up reprapfirmware (2.1.1-1) ... [fatal] Could not connect to Duet (Error 16. Cannot put line into event mode.)
Now that's interesting. Cannot connect to duet?

Bah.you could try opening another session and running
kill `pgrep DuetControl`
-
Maybe a manual firmware update is in order.
bossac into the search field should give you lots of hits.
-
@TeddyFluffkins DCS requires the presence of /dev/gpiochip0. Maybe your Linux kernel is too old or the corresponding driver isn't loaded.
-
@chrishamm I'm using the official DuetPi image provided by duet3d ️
Journalctl reports the same "cannot connect to duet, cannot put into line mode"
Guess I'll revert to stable. Too bad, I like to love on the bleeding edge
-
Now it wont even work on the stable branch with a new SD and new image.
Guess its a local hardware problem then. -
Maybe hardware, maybe not. If the firmware on the board and the DSF are far enough out of sync, they can't communicate, not even enough to re-load the firmware.
There are MANY things you could do. I also like the leading edge, and so I personally would:
sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade duetsoftwareframework
It MIGHT be necessary to
sudo apt upgrade duetsoftwareframework --reinstall
After that finishes, if things are not talking, bossa the firmware onto your board. Use the binary file (appropriate to your board type) found in :
/opt/dsf/sd/sys/
. You can bossa however you did it before... do be aware that you can bossa from the pi (instructions here). I personally find this easier.Summary: Upgrade the Pi, bossa the Duet with the binary that came from the Pi upgrade.
That should get everything in sync, and you shouldn't have to do this again next upgrate.

@Danal Upgrading the firmware should work even with an old firmware by running
/opt/dsf/bin/DuetControlServer -u
with DSF >= 1.3. Newer version can fall back to the old SPI protocol if started with that particular parameter. But in doubt erasing the board and flashing the firmware again using bossac should get it back running.There is a new experimental DuetPi build with DSF 2.1.1 at https://pkg.duet3d.com/testing/ but be aware that it is configured to use
stable
package feed instead ofunstable
, so a change might be needed for further updates. -
alright thanks for the input @Danal
I'll try the new DuetPi build first, then get to read up on bossa.
-
Sorry for posting double...
So. I flashed the newest DuetPi from /testing, booted the printer up and wahooo! It works!
Uploaded my config.g - BAM. DCS has stopped.
On power cycling the whole machine, I get "DCS is not started" in DWC.
EDIT: Just noticed that, after sitting there for like 30s-1min with state "DCS is not started" it suddenly can connect - for close to a second, until DCS dies and DWC returns "DCS has been stopped" (cant connect to duet3.local)Can anyone check my config.g ? Is there something in there that kills DSC?!?!
-
@TeddyFluffkins There are two lines with {1} in it, please delete them and try again. In addition, please make sure you escape every string parameter in quotes (
"
).PS: I tried your config.g on my test board with the M550 commented out and the {1} lines removed and DCS stays alive (that is with DSF 2.1.1).
-
@chrishamm Thats interesting.
The {1} lines are a by-product of copy/pasting I think, they are not in my original config.g on the Pi.
However, I deleted the empty lines just to be sure and commented out the M550.
Now it booted up.
After every change in config.g though, DCS would stop and take a while to reload.
Also, my hotend thermistor would not work anymore.
I tried a different one, factory new - same result.
I'm now trying to figure out what might be wrong with the config, since it worked before. Too much for today though. Gonna start fresh tomorrow:)Thanks for the help, much appreciated!

You'll have to be more specific. Was there an error message? What temp did it show?
-
So. After re-doing my config.g the Thermistor is working again and I finished some smaller prints without issue.
However, something is still not right.
I can boot up everything alright, but if I activate my filament sensor in config.g (duet magnetic filament sensor), DCS fails. Constantly.
If I update config.g and comment it out, I need to reboot/power cycle to get the machine working.
If I activate the filament sensor through the console in DWC, everything is fine. Same command.

your config still seems to have these in it.
-
@Phaedrux sorry for the late reply.
Thats some copy/paste error. Its not in the config.g file -
Have you tried upgrading to the newer RRF and DCS?
