Cannot run script for Octopus 1.1 mcu flashing, resulting in failure to flash
Hi all
I have for many months been struggling with firmware updating the mcu on my Octopus 1.1 F446 board. To work around the issue, I have resorted to updating via the SDCard firmware file method, but I am now at a point where I hope you can help me overcome the problem and get back to upgrading automatically via the Klipper/RatOS GUI.
In the attached screenshot I have cut-n-pasted together my scenario which starts with a Klipper update being advertised in the GUI. This morning it was an upgrade from v0.12.0-9 to v0.12.0-10. I click the "Update" button for just the Klipper update (a Beacon update was also available) and the update proceeds as is also shown in the screenshot.
But 1,5 minutes later the error message "BIGTREETECT Octopus V1.1 failed to flash: An error occurred while attempting to run script: Running board script /home/pi/printer_data/config/RatOS/boards/btt-octopus-11/flash.sh\n\n" appears and immediately afterwards the messages "Flashing /dev/btt-octopus-11", "Flashing out/klipper.bin to /dev/btt-octopus-11" and "Flashing failed."
At this point Klipper has lost its communication with the Octopus board and the only way I can restore it, is through turning the power off and on again.
Having restored the communication, I find that the reported firmware version remains the same as before I tried updating.
My BTT EBB42 v1.2 and the Raspberry Pi upgrades just fine and the printer prints just fine otherwise. Only the Octopus v1.1 firmware upgrade is a problem for me.
Kind regards Jakob
