Update from 1.15 to 1.19 absolutely NO Web control Interface. Help!!!
-
nvm figured it out
-
Could you tell all the other users what the problem was, if someone else has this problem sometime in the future…?

the fix is already on the forum and buried. When you unzip the Duet Web Control file you need to have a blank www folder on your sd card and then unzip and place ONLY the contents of the unzipped file into the www folder. Do not place the unzipped file itself in the www folder…...just the contents. Hope this helps someone. The wiki needs changed to address this.

Thank you for this Fishbyte. Please can someone tell me:
1. how I create a new /www folder on the Duet Wifi microSD card; and
2. how I then upload to that folderI can't see how to do this using my current Duet Web Interface Version: 1.14a - I can only see and upload to the /sys folder.

Either move the SD card to a PC and do it there, or enable FTP on the Duet and do it via FTP.

Thanks - how do I enable FTP on the Duet Wifi?

Duets are gcode driven for EVERYTHING. My general way of researching "How do I get a duet to do xyz" starts with:
-
google "duet gcode"
-
Open the first hit:
Gcode - Duet3D
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode- Use local browser find (Ctrl+F) for some keyword related to what you want. In this case 'ftp'
M586: Configure network protocols
Parameters:Pnn Protocol: 0 = HTTP or HTTPS, 1 = FTP or SFTP, 2 = Telnet or SSH (which of the two choices depends on the T parameter)
Snn 0 = disable this protocol, 1 = enable this protocol -

Thank you for this guidance Danal. I hadn't realised that "Duets are gcode driven for EVERYTHING"….including FTP.

It seems that the Duet Wifi doesn't support FTP as I'm getting these error messages on the Duet Web Interface screen - what am I doing wrong please? …

I've been in a similar situation. I followed the recovery procedure here and got everything working again.
Important note (that took me WAY too long to figure out): You CANNOT "right click and save as" on the various files, like 'Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin' in github.
https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/tree/dev/EdgeRelease/1.21RC3
You must click on the blue link for each file, and then click 'download' on the resulting page. You will know you are in the right place when you see a 'view raw' link. To be clear: Don't actually use the 'view raw', use the 'download' button on the same page.
I think people like Dave don't encounter this download issue because they use various tools to sync their repositories to github… they really never see the github web pages.

Many thanks. I'm making progress…nearly there. I've got the Firmware and Wifi Server versions to 1.20 (as listed below). But I still can't manage the last step, which is to upgrade to DuetWebControl 1.20. I followed the instructions on https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Installing_and_Updating_Firmware#Section_Updating_WiFi_firmware_or_DuetWebControl_files including the bit which says "you can rename it to e.g. DWC.zip and then it should upload" and the upload message said all the files uploaded OK (although I can't figure out how to see them through the web interface). However, I'm still stuck on Web Interface Version: 1.14a - it doesn't seem to automatically upgrade to the new files. Is there something I need to do to get this to happen?

My advice is to put the SD card in a PC, delete the /www folder, create a new one, and unzip the 1.20 version of DuetWebControl.zip into it.

(although I can't figure out how to see them through the web interface).
Correct. There is no way to see the /www directory through DWC as it stands. Only the /sys directory.
The "upload" function in DWC looks at file extensions to decide in which directory to place them. .js .css .htm (or the equivalent compressed, like .js.gz) go into /www and the various subdirectories, with no action on your part.
However, I'm still stuck on Web Interface Version: 1.14a - it doesn't seem to automatically upgrade to the new files. Is there something I need to do to get this to happen?
Like Dave said, I'd put the SD in a PC/Mac, delete everything in /www, and unzip a 1.20 DWC into that directory. Should result in a "reprap.htm" in /www, several other files with it, and a /www/js and /www/css directory (and maybe more, I'm working from memory). If you see that basic structure, you are probably good.
Then boot from that SD and check versions.

Thanks Dave and Danal. I followed your advice and it is all updated fine now, including 1.20 DWC.
