Mainsail time lapse runs into issues when installing, and I tried I linked the files as shown in the github issue. It struggles to see klipper is installed. I can provide logs screenshots, and anything else needed, just let me know. As of right now I only want one klipper instance to have it installed if that helps. Help would be appreciated

Yes we know, currently installation works only manually

#

Timelapse installer is not changed to the new data structure yet

gloomy stream Yes we know, currently installation works only manually

So would I be able to install it manually or just wait till it updates?

#

I can guide you true that its not that hard to do

#

you cloned already timelapse so you should have a fioder called ~/moonraker-timelapse

#

make me and screenshot of your user

#

I also need ls -l ~/

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 3:14 PM

#

Alright I’ll send that when I get home

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 3:18 PM

#

Yes best would be we do it together

#

For me it’s now 4:18PM

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 8:38 PM

#

gloomy stream make me and screenshot of your user

user is user@klipper

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 8:39 PM

#

gloomy stream I also need ```ls -l ~/```

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 8:42 PM

#

Printers are ENDER_data and MAKERBOT_data

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 8:42 PM

#

yup i only care about ENDER_data for timelapse, its the only one with a camera

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 8:43 PM

#

Give me a few minutes of typing to get all commandos

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 8:43 PM

#

thank you!

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 8:54 PM

#

first step ssh in the PI, than run line by line

#

ln -sf /home/user/moonraker-timelapse/klipper_macro/timelapse.cfg /home/user/Makerbot_data/config/timelapse.cfg
ln -sf /home/user/moonraker-timelapse/klipper_macro/timelapse.cfg /home/user/Ender_data/config/timelapse.cfg
mkdir /home/user/Makerbot_data/timelapse
mkdir /home/user/Ender_data/timelapse```

#

make you discord big enough that are only 5 lines

#

second step: Open your moonraker.conf at the ender and at [timelapse] output_path: ~/Ender_data/timelapse/ frame_path: /tmp/Ender/timelapse/

#

third step: Open your moonraker.conf at the makerbot and at [timelapse] output_path: ~/Makerbot_data/timelapse/ frame_path: /tmp/Makerbot/timelapse/

#

then do i have to run the installer or is that it?

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:00 PM

#

if you have that we need to do some checks, I need a screenshot for each of the following commands ls -l ~/moonraker/moonraker/components ls -l ~/Makerbot_data/config ls -l ~/Ender_data/config ls -l /etc/systemd/system

#

no installer you and me are the installer right now 😉

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:01 PM

#

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:02 PM

#

nearly done I want to see the checks and also after I know how the services are called we will add the updater sections

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:02 PM

#

#

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

give me also ls -l ~/Makerbot_data ls -l ~/Ender_data

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

until know it looks good

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:03 PM

#

makerbot data

#

ender data

#

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:04 PM

#

ok open Mainsail at e.g the ender and open the power menu to crosscheck the service names

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:04 PM

#

this?

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:06 PM

#

ok last 2 steps, open the moonraker.conf at Ender and at [update_manager timelapse] type: git_repo primary_branch: main path: ~/moonraker-timelapse origin: https://github.com/mainsail-crew/moonraker-timelapse.git managed_services: klipper-Ender moonraker-Ender

#

do the same on makerbot and at [update_manager timelapse] type: git_repo primary_branch: main path: ~/moonraker-timelapse origin: https://github.com/mainsail-crew/moonraker-timelapse.git managed_services: klipper-Makerbot moonraker-Makerbot

#

That was what the installer would have done 😁

#

Next is follow https://github.com/mainsail-crew/moonraker-timelapse/blob/main/docs/configuration.md for both printers

#

cool, thank you so much!

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:11 PM

#

only to insure ffmpeg is on the machine sudo apt update sudo apt install ffmpeg

#

it will either install it or tell you the last version is there

#

after you did all I would do an reboot and than you should see a timelapse in the mainsail navigate panel

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:15 PM

#

okay

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:16 PM

#

close the post as soon all is working

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

alright as soon as this print finishes i will update and close it

#

unless you want to do anything with it as a more guided example of how to get it working with two instances then the github issue

gloomy stream Jan 25, 2023, 9:18 PM

#

no hurry

timber notch Jan 25, 2023, 10:33 PM

#

gloomy stream no hurry

same message for klipper-ender and moonraker-ender should i just change it to klipper and moonraker in moonraker.conf or is there anything else i should do

#

systemctl lists them as valid services

gloomy stream Jan 26, 2023, 6:17 AM

#

Good morning here the multi instance is bitting me. Lets see
ssh in the PI
nano ~/Makerbot_data/moonraker.asvc
add klipper-Ender moonraker-Ender klipper-Makerbot moonraker-Makerbot to the end of that list
then open nano ~/Ender_data/moonraker.asvc
and do the same

#

if that does not solve it we would need to remove managed_services . The impact of that is that after a timelapse update you would need to restart the service manually or reboot the PI.

gloomy stream Good morning here the multi instance is bitting me. Lets see ssh in the PI ```na...

it didnt work, so ill ne fine rebooting every now and again

#

where would i delete managed services?

gloomy stream Jan 27, 2023, 4:16 AM

#

Ok open both moonraker.conf

#

Remove managed_services: klipper-Ender moonraker-Ender and managed_services: klipper-Makerbot moonraker-Makerbot

#

If I find time I will setup a multi instance on my testrig to see if I get that to run

timber notch Jan 27, 2023, 2:28 PM

#

I realized that it may have worked but I didn’t clear the notification for the error, I’ll double check when I get home

gloomy stream Jan 31, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

@timber notch is that fixed now? If yes please close the post

timber notch Jan 31, 2023, 2:59 PM

#

gloomy stream <@758131570514329612> is that fixed now? If yes please close the post

I removed the managed services in the cofig files, and the error is gone is there anything else I have to do other than reboot after I update?

#

If there isn’t anything else I need to do, I’ll close it I just want to make sure

gloomy stream Jan 31, 2023, 3:02 PM

#

Nope that would be all
