Bug reporting
Bug reports are submitted through github issues. All bug reports must include the full /tmp/klippy.log log file from the session that produced the error. To acquire this log file, ssh into the computer running the klipper host software, and run:
gzip -k /tmp/klippy.log
Then scp the resulting /tmp/klippy.log.gz file from the host machine
to your desktop. (If your desktop does not have scp installed, there
are a number of free scp programs available - just do a web search for
windows scp to find one.) Open a new issue at
https://github.com/KevinOConnor/klipper/issues , provide a description
of the problem, and attach the klippy.log.gz file to the issue (use
the blue "selecting them" link beneath the problem description on the
github issue page to attach files).
If the Klipper software does something unexpected but does not produce an error, then immediately issue an M112 command in the Octoprint terminal window and then gather the log as described above. The M112 command instructs Klipper to enter a "shutdown" state and it will cause additional debugging information to be added to the log.
