FIle deleted during print

What is the problem?

Started a 23 hour print and after about 5 hours into the print it just stopped. I noticed that the file that I was printing was gone. The nozzle was still at 210°C and Octoprint seemed to be locked up because I could tell it to do anything through my Raspberry.

What did you already try to solve it?

There's nothing that I can do to solve it because I don't know what happened other than Octoprint locked up.

Have you tried running in safe mode?

No

Did running in safe mode solve the problem?

N/A

Systeminfo Bundle

Since OctoPrint was locked up I had to turn off my Raspberry and restart OctoPrint and when I did I got and undervoltage warning, this may have been the problem.

Could you finally please add the Systeminfo Bundle when you are asked for it.

I did post the contents. How do I add the zip file? Oh wait, maybe the upload button.

I think you might have answered your own question. What have you done to minimise chance of this in future? More 'chunky' power supply might be a significant part of the fix. 5V at 2.5A is recommended as minimum

Power supply not being great is listed in the logs as well as in the warning you saw.
"2025-06-28 17:16:22,305 - octoprint.plugins.pi_support - WARNING - This Raspberry Pi is reporting problems that might lead to bad performance or errors caused by overheating or insufficient power.
!!! UNDERVOLTAGE REPORTED !!! Make sure that the power supply and power cable are capable of supplying enough voltage and current to your Pi."
and then (for example):
"2025-06-28 22:53:28,566 - octoprint.plugins.tracking - INFO - Sent tracking event system_throttled, payload: {'throttled_now': True, 'throttled_past': True, 'throttled_mask': 327685, 'throttled_voltage_now': True"

5.1V is recommended by https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/micro-usb-power-supply/

For right now I have put a small cooling fan on the Raspberry but I do have a 5.1v 3a power supply which should do the job but I wanted to ask first if the 3a is too much? I would think it would be fine because the Raspberry would only pull as much current as it needed.

You are correct, a power supply with the right voltage can deliver UP TO its maximum current specification. You will be fine with that power supply.

Thanks, I thought it would be. I think I will also 3D print a case that will hold a small fan just to keep it cooler also.

My two PI 4s were giving me issues. Here are the fans and heat sinks that solved my lock ups. Amazon.com -- Amazon.com. Good luck!
