I have reinstalled octoprint according to the instructions at LINK

At the point ~/OctoPrint/venv/bin/octoprint serve

I get the output:

unknown command: /home/pi/OctoPrint/venv/bin/octoprint

when I try to start with sudo service octoprint start I get the output

Job for octoprint.service failed because the control process exited with error code.

See "systemctl status octoprint.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

systemctl status octoprint.service

Did you change the username on the RPi imager? If so, don't do that.

This probably means you installed OctoPrint somewhere else or as a different user. I would go back and try and find where you might have installed it, using ls -l to get the permissions as well, making sure they are all correct.
