docbain Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Is the other 10 pin connector designed for installing Raspberry Pi on the inside of PEB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 It is for programming the CPLD. When installing in the PEB, you still use the cable to connect from the rear RPI port to the PI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are only available in immediate mode. Doing something like what Arcadeshopper suggested, combined with use of ON ERROR to handle the failure case, should get the job done. I don't know, but wouldn't be surprised if ON ERROR handled io issues from a CALL LOAD as well .. so you could setup the error handler, attempt to load the tipi mouse driver from the TIPI. drive, and if it succeeds, set a hasTipi variable. Which you could then check to skip the CALL LINKs later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have a working system at the time, so I only tested the new link routine in Classic99. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Vorticon Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Today I apparently lost the ability to access the tipi share on my Win10 machines although I can still access it via Putty. I rebooted the router and the tipi to no avail. I've had no issues with this prior. Any thoughts as to where the problem might lie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what a pis connection is... I can SSH into the PI and also ftp into it using Filezilla. I checked the daemon log and it looks like it's failing to start the Samba server. Isn't that service used for connecting to Windows systems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just have to back up all my tipi folders first. I'll give it a shot. Out of curiosity though, what could have gone wrong on the tipi side? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+arcadeshopper Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Yeah if something's not starting then either troubleshoot that service by looking at the log and finding out why it's not starting or you could reimage the SD card like he is suggesting that seems like hitting a fly with a sledgehammer but if you're not up to troubleshooting a service on Linux it is the easiest solutionSent from my LM-V600 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is was nice however to have TIPI mapped to a drive letter. Come to think of it, we had an outage about week ago, and I suspect that might have been the culprit. If someone can tell me what's the likely broken service is on the Rpi, and can try to figure it out. As I stated earlier, the daemon log shows the smb service is not starting correctly. No other errors that I can see. Could that be it? We need input from a linux guru here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jedimatt42 Posted July 21, 2021 Author Share Posted July 21, 2021 If you are relying on your router's DNS server, I've found in the last couple years that the convention of <hostname>.local works more consistently... why it might change? Microsoft changes what version of windows you are running every week.. Some of their mechanisms used WINS... Last I looked, samba on linux was trying to find and register with WINS (WINS is a deprecated alternative to DNS) anyway, it is possible nothing changes or broke on your PI... but a patch to Windows changed how network file share access looks for hosts. Before reflashing, just try \\tipi.local\TIPI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
