What happened

I've reinstalled and followed install.sh, entered my details but it's not backing up. it's now doing it on both printers.

What did you expect to happen

I expected it to backup to my github

How to reproduce

I've re-installed but it is still not uploading files to my repositories

Debug

Unable to create/upload debug

Unable to create/upload debug

Why?

I think you are using your github password in your .env file instead a token. The error message tells you basically this.

Password-based authentication for Git has been removed in favor of more secure authentication methods. For more information, see "[Managing your personal access tokens]:

[drumstick77]

okay, so how would one resolve this issue?

[Staubgeborener]

You create a token like it is explained here and use it instead your github password in your .env. You could simple run the install.sh and add the token if the installer ask for it.

[drumstick77]

ok, yes that's exactly how I did it I created the token in github and pasted it during the wizard of running install.sh

[drumstick77]

I never had to edit or tweak .env

[drumstick77]

should I be generating tokens (classic)? or fine-grained tokens? because your instruction says doesn't matter which one. and I'm using fine-grained tokens

[drumstick77]

should I remove the current .env and start again?

[Staubgeborener]

You can just edit your post instead of re-posting.

should I be generating tokens (classic)? or fine-grained tokens? because your instruction says doesn't matter which one. and I'm using fine-grained tokens

Indeed, it doesn't matter but just create a Fine-grained token with these settings (i will update the docs with this information):

Only select repositories -> select your backup repository

Account permissions:
-------------------------------
Administration: Read and write
Commit statuses: Read and write 

should I remove the current .env and start again? This is not necessary. Create the token like i explained, run the install.sh again (like ~/klipper-backup/install.sh) and add the token when the script ask for it.

If this still doesn't work, please give me the whole script.sh --debug output.

[drumstick77]

ok, I've managed to fix this. I went with the classic token which gives the ability to set permission like per modbot video. the fine grain is slightly different. Although, if I remember rightly Minimal 3DP went with fine grain and he clicked on generate token without setting any permissions. Anyway, I will go with this classic token and will also apply to my other printers. thanks for you help.

[drumstick77]

just did it do another printer and was getting this error

[Staubgeborener]

Try script.sh --fix and run again.
