Additional information

I had this happen but not really sure why it occurs what you can try is going into the config_backup folder via ssh and running git pull and i believe that should be able to un corrupt the repo.

I've been attempting to reproduce the error or sort out what causes it to occur but no luck yet.

[3DeezNutz]

What do you mean by git pull? I’m not very good at this.

git pull is a command, once logged into the PC running klipper you will want to do:

cd config_backup

and then

git pull

and see what errors occur if any

[3DeezNutz]

like this?

[Tylerjet]

yep ok so try this instead

git init

and then

git pull

[3DeezNutz]

[Tylerjet]

ahh ok i found the list of commands i did:

rm -rf .git/objects
git init
git reset --hard
git status

The last command should either show up to date or that there are deleted files but you shouldn't see the loose object error

[3DeezNutz]

[Tylerjet]

could you try a git pull again what shows up

[3DeezNutz]

ok thank you that fixed it

[3DeezNutz]

how would i go about backing up my history on mainsail?

[Tylerjet]

Not sure what you mean are you referring to the the mainsail.cfg file? that is a read only file and can't be modified in the editor so it is skipped from backups.

[3DeezNutz]

like all the data from your total print hours.

[Tylerjet]

That data is saved in a database specific to moonraker and has a bit more involved process to backup the data base to be able to restore it if needed later.

[3DeezNutz]

Could this be a future request feature?

Maybe, it's possible to backup and restore the moonraker database. We could add a simple ~/moonraker/scripts/backup-database.sh -o ~/moonraker-database.backup command line in future (code) which can be toggled with a backup_database parameter (or something like that) in future. Right now you can backup this database by yourself and add the path to the data.mdb file in your .env.

[3DeezNutz]

Do I use single file?

What.

[3DeezNutz]

do i use this but add the data.mdb path

[Staubgeborener]

Yes. If you run the backup like this ~/moonraker/scripts/backup-database.sh -o ~/moonraker-database.backup You create the backup file of your database in your home directory.

So basically adding something like this in your .env is enough: path_moonrakerdatabase=moonraker-database.backup

I would suggest to create the database backup in a extra directory and not in your home directory. After pushing all files to GitHub so you avoid disorganization in your repository.
