Unable to plot since new update

[ApfelBirneKreis]

When i try to plot over the gui this error message occours:

Plotting over cli with this command works fine:

chia_plot -n 100 -r 16 -u 256 -t /plotting/ -d /plots1/ -f xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -c xchxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Im using machinaris with Unraid 6.9.2 in the Machinaris Docker container. Tried the :latest and :test branch. Both spit out the same issue.

Hi, how are you starting the Machinaris container? As per the Github bug template, please provide Windows/Linux/MacOS, etc.

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior, e.g.:

1. Start machinaris via the Unraid GUI
2. Go to Plotting page
3. Start plotting via the "Start Plotting" button
4. See error
5. It also happens when you try to change Plotting settings in the settings menue. Same plotman error occours

Expected behavior

System setup:

• OS: Unraid 6.9.2
• Docker version number (output of v4.20.1)
• Machinaris branch: :test , :latest
• Machinaris version number: 0.5.4

Docker Run: Sice i use the Machinaris Unraid app i don´t have acces to docker run

Hi, as you're on Unraid, please ensure you add -t as an Extra Parameter to the Docker configuration:

This should be part of the default Machinaris template in Unraid Community Applications. This will ensure tty mode is enabled for the container which makes Plotman happy. :)

That fixed the Error. Thanks!
