markwal / OctoPrint-GPX

An OctoPrint plug-in to use GPX as the protocol layer underneath rather than replacing g-code to talk to s3g/x3g machines, for example, a FlashForge.

Cannot connect #84

Open boogiemann opened 3 years ago

boogiemann commented 3 years ago

I have been using an older version for years with my WanHao Duplicator 4S. The SD on my pi just died. I burned a new OctoPi and installed the current version of GPX and I now get a connection error as below.

Offline (Error: UnicodeDecodeError: ''ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x87 in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)' @ comm.py:_readline:2793)

Please help.

Hmmm.... The error seems like the plugin isn't enabled and OctoPrint is talking directly to the printer instead of through the plugin. It would be helpful to get an excerpt from the octoprint.log starting from when OctoPrint boots up to the point of unable to connect.
