[Bug] Stuck on Hello dialog about octoprint-eeprom-marlin

[cohaolain]

Hey @cp2004 I'll try take a look at this in a bit 🙂

[cp2004]

I don't have access to octoprint anymore as I'm stucked on this dialog

New solution in OctoPrint 1.5.0 (since you seem to be running the RCs) - the recovery page.

Head to http://<yourip>/recovery then you should be able to start OctoPrint in safe mode, delete the plugin and then restart OctoPrint and become 'un-screwed'

In the meantime, I will investigate why this happens. There is nothing in this plugin that can stop the wizard closing (literally only HTML, no script in that one) so I need to investigate this upstream.

To do this, I have a feeling it might be configuration-specific. Could you upload a redacted config.yaml (ie. take out API keys, unique tokens etc. - anything that looks like it might be risky sharing. There shouldn't be too much, but definitely API key.). This would really help, since I don't think I can reproduce this, but it is not the first time I have seen this problem.

@reggaemanu Any news on whether you've been able to look at this? I would like to know if it is a potential bug in 1.5.0rc series, which is planned for next week. I have only seen this twice, and both times they were on 1.5.0rc, so it would be great if we could look into this.
Thanks!

Hi, Yeah I managed to unstuck this with the recovery mode today (really handy this new feature), but I didn't have time to retrieve the yalm config file for you before leaving for my workshop. I'll send you that this evening when coming back home.

[cp2004]

No worries, thanks for getting back to me!

[reggaemanu]

Here's my config.yaml file
config.txt

[cp2004]

Thank, I will take a look and see if we can find something.

[cohaolain]

For what it's worth, though this may well have been found already! The following messages are logged to console on each attempt to close the wizard dialog.

[cp2004]

@cohaolain could I get an OctoPrint.log please? Internal server error is definitely something that needs investigation.

[cohaolain]

I just tried to reproduce in a clean config, containerised instance - couldn't reproduce it this time. So likely either

1. a compatibility issue with the update (in the sense that having a config generated by an older version is causing issues)
   and/or
2. a plugin conflict - I have quite a few plugins in my production octoprint instance.

I'll see if my production octoprint log has anything useful in it, unsure what my verbosity was set to last time (and can't try to reproduce right now, currently mid-print 😄 )

Here's all the relevant log entries related to the above:

Thanks for the insight, I will try and take a look. This doesn't look fun, and must be configuration specific.... 😢

[cp2004]

Fix for this is ready for OctoPrint 1.6.0, (not 1.5.0) since it was not a regression.
Details: OctoPrint/OctoPrint@ba27cdf

Closing this issue since the root cause has been fixed & I'm not to blame, and in the next version of the plugin the wizard dialog will be gone anyway.
