can't create new filament when folder filaments misses

[JPluess]

hi there, this might be an issue for RRF3.0 RC2 i do not know.

i tried to add new filaments but the folder filaments has not been created on sd card. i had to remove the card and create it on the computer. now i can create filaments.

request: if folder is not on the sd card, could you create a new folder with the web interface?

thanks. best wishes, joel

I was thinking RRF would create the full folder path including missing parent directories but it looks like this is not the case. What board and DWC2 version are you using?

[JPluess]

i have a board duet 2 wifi , its V1.04

I also see this issue. Board: Duet 3 MB6HC (MB6HC) DSF Version: 1.1.0.5 Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 MB6HC v0.6 or 1.0 3.0beta12 (2019-11-02b1)

@JPluess You can create the filaments directory manually by opening http://yourmachine/rr_mkdir?dir=0:/filaments We'll fix this in the firmware.

@bjbeare DSF comes with the duetsd package that provides filaments directory so there should be no need to create it manually. Please update your Pi and check if it exists or not.

@chrishamm You are right. the directory was there and the files were populated. I am able to view/edit them using the filaments editor... but the load command can't open the directory. Here's what the directory and permissions look like. The directories are owned by uid=1000 (pi) but the files are owned by root.

When I try the Load command, I see:

This seems to be a different issue than reported on the thread. I can open a new issue if you like.

@bjbeare It doesn't matter if those directories are owned by user 'pi' since 'root' has permission to read/write those files anyway. Have you upgraded to DSF 1.2.3.0 yet? The Filaments feature was not working in 1.1.0.5. Also make sure that you do not have a microSD card in your Duet 3.

I have changed the behaviour in RRF 3.1 to creates the full path recursively when creating a folder or renaming a file.

Thanks 😊

@chrishamm Thank you. Problem solved on the load/unload. I didn't realize that I shouldn't have the sdcard installed in the duet3.
