What is the problem?
Two days ago I printed some parts without any issue. The next day I started the printer to continue and OctoPrint stopped connecting to it. Haven't made any updates to OctoPrint, plugins or printer firmware in between.
Solved while gathering information for this post but will post anyway as it might help other users in the future.
Solution:
Found a message in octoprint.log stating "No such file or directory: '/dev/ttyACM0'" so I set serial port and baud rate to auto and it connected to the printer again.
Very odd considering it worked with manually configured serial port and baud rate until now.
What did you already try to solve it?
- Reboot everything several times, including cold boot
- Set serial baud rate to 250000 then back to 115200
- Reboot to safe mode to exclude any malfunctioning plugins
- Reflash printer firmware via OctoPrint - failed with timeout
- Recompiled and reflashed printer firmware via PC - worked
- Connected to Pronterface to test printer communication - worked, connected almost instantly and was able to control the printer

- Set serial port and baud rate to auto - worked
