Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" I have a small issue and because I haven't found any solution or topics on it, probably this is an isolated evil case. Sometimes when I disconnect from web GUI and try to reconnect after a while, it pops up "invalid password" thus rendering the print uncontrollable. I tried from different computers and devices but unfortunately the only help is Duet restart. I've got Duet 0.85 with DC42 1.12 and DWC 1.11 installed. The printer and PC is attached to a router. At the beginning everything seems ok. edit: this happens only when trying disconnect/reconnect while printing, when printer is not busy everything looks fine. Does anybody share this experience? Basically it looks like this: 1. Connect via DWC works ok, everything works. 2. Duet is idle, the machine does not print, disconnecting and connecting again works ok. 3. Normal gcode print starts as should be, machine is printing. 4. I disconnect DWC 5. Any attempt of reconnecting ends with "invalid password" message. Even when the password line is commented out. 6. The only way to regain control via DWC is to reset duet. 7. Even if the print is started, then paused and cancelled and after that you disconnect the DWC it's not possible to reconnect, it claims a password and then rejects it with "invalid password" message.

KISSlicer pastes something like:

////
; Select extruder, warm, purge

; BfB-style
M (EXT+1) 04 S (TEMP)
M542
M55(EXT+1) P32000 S900
M543

; 5D-style
T(EXT+0)
M109 S(TEMP)
////

M542 and M543 were alerted as incompatible so I deleted them but M542 (EXT+1) gave M551 which according to reprap wiki sets a password to secure the machine.
So after running my viral gcode the password is set and claimed with reconnect trial.
Fair enough.

I haven't tested it yet but I'm sure it's the cause. Will post confirmation tomorrow.

Thanks a lot David!

After finishing with this one I'll try to replicate the pause error we talked about.]]> IOI Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 16:36:15 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666059#msg-666059 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666059#msg-666059 I tried with several gcodes but all from KISSlicer setup for our printers (smoothie based firmware)
I'll try different tomorrow and post results.

Funny because the second problem (its not me) happend to me a few times, I even wanted to write about it here but decided not to clutter the topic.
It had two forms:

1. Hit pause, just wait for half a minute or so and there came a crash, something about "no tool selected", AJAX error as far as I remember and the same thing with no ability to reconnect.

2. The second was just like in your link, I hit pause and almost immediately afrer that "cancel". DWC halted and wrote about "no tool".

I'm sorry not to be precise enough, next time it happens I'll take care to make a report.

These cases are not consistent while the reconnection problem happens every single time.
I'll check the gcodes and try with ones included.]]> IOI Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 14:33:42 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666052#msg-666052 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666052#msg-666052 dc42 Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 14:07:53 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666039#msg-666039 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,666039#msg-666039 any gcode file?

Please attach your config.g file, also your pause.g file.

Somebody reported what sounds like a similar problem on github, see [github.com]. Is that you, or someone else?]]> dc42 Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 13:30:03 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665982#msg-665982 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665982#msg-665982 I reflash with bossac -e -w -v -b firmwarename.bin
All the files are there on SD card. I use 24V power supply and 5V en jumper is on.
And the Duet is original 0.85 from T3P3.
Do you have any idea what could possibly be wrong?

Sometimes when I just pause DWC returns a bunch of errors about tools or other and disconnects.
Probably I have busted setup in some evil way.

New findings:
I started print from SD card using purely arduino serial monitor.
After that I tried to connect to duet using Filezilla and DWC.
Both of them give "wrong password" or "login incorrect" and refuse to connect.]]> IOI Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 10:27:44 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665946#msg-665946 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665946#msg-665946

So I updated to 1.12a and unfortunately it hasn't changed.
I tried connecting from different PC in the same net, from an IPad (with chrome) and from a laptop (with static IP) connected directly to Duet via ethernet cable.
Everywhere the result is the same.
I'll try with nano router yet but have no faith in it.

Can you reproduce it? Is it worth to try earlier firmware versions?

I tried to reproduce it several times, by pausing the print, disconnecting and reconnecting; but each time the browser reconnected properly and I was able to resume the print through the web interface.]]> dc42 Duet Fri, 20 May 2016 08:44:53 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665903#msg-665903 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665903#msg-665903 I tried connecting from different PC in the same net, from an IPad (with chrome) and from a laptop (with static IP) connected directly to Duet via ethernet cable.

When the problem happens, have you tried closing the browser tab and connecting from a new one, or a different browser? Have you tried connecting from a different PC/tablet/smartphone? The results may give clues about what is going on.

I'll see if I can reproduce the problem. Please upgrade to firmware 1.12a just in case it changes anything.]]> dc42 Duet Thu, 19 May 2016 13:19:45 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665648#msg-665648 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665648#msg-665648
It pings ok from cmd.

I really havent messed up login data:)

Serial monitor's answer to M552 is ok:

///
Network is enabled, configured IP address: 0.0.0.0, actual IP address: 10.0.0.64, HTTP port: 80

I'll try with fixed IP just out of the blue.
edit: fixed IP makes no difference]]> IOI Duet Thu, 19 May 2016 10:02:53 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665633#msg-665633 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665633#msg-665633
I sent M122 via serial monitor and at the beginning there was this (sorry for the length of it):

Now I print gcode in DWC (google chrome, from PC), let it work for a while and pause.
Then I hit disconnect, wait a few seconds and hit connect.
It asks for a password, replies nicely that the password is invalid and refuses to connect DWC.
The machine can be controlled from serial monitor, G28, G1 X100 etc everything works.

I'm not sure but it look ok.
Perhaps DWC is guilty, does anybody have the same problem with reconnecting?

Chrishamm maintains the networking code, so he is best placed to work out exactly what is going wrong. One thing that might be helpful is to connect Pronterface, then when this happens again send M122 to get the diagnostics.]]> dc42 Duet Thu, 19 May 2016 06:21:36 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665543#msg-665543 Re: Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,665543#msg-665543 IOI Duet Thu, 19 May 2016 04:52:32 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,664894#msg-664894 Duet web control 1.11 "invalid password" https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?416,664894,664894#msg-664894 Sometimes when I disconnect from web GUI and try to reconnect after a while, it pops up "invalid password" thus rendering the print uncontrollable.
