@think-inhell can you share what your local.cfg is?

It looks like you didn't specify the section headers in local.cfg.

The default.cfg file has sections for each value, like

[Geometry]
# 0 - Cartesian
# 1 - H-belt
# 2 - Core XY
# 3 - Delta
axis_config = 0
...
[Delta]
# Length of the rod
L   = 0.322
# Radius of the columns
r   = 0.175
...

And what the error message says is that it can't find the same section headers in your local.cfg.

@goeland86 Thanks for your fast reply

My current local.cfg: (everything commented out)

#direction_x = -1
#direction_y = -1
#direction_z = -1

#steps_pr_mm_x = 6.25
#steps_pr_mm_y = 6.25

Right, ok.

What you're missing local.cfg is the section headers. It should be

[Steppers]
#direction_x = -1
#direction_y = -1
#direction_z = -1

#steps_pr_mm_x = 6.25
#steps_pr_mm_y = 6.25
#steps_pr_mm_z = 6.25

[Endstops]
#invert_X1 = False
#invert_Y1 = False
#invert_Z1 = False
#invert_X2 = True
#invert_Y2 = True
#invert_Z2 = False

[think-inhell]

Thanks :) My fault. With the headers it worked perfect.
