need to see what you have in printer.cfg. as stated the section you have annotated as ratos_homing is NOT valid the way you have it entered

that's the error log showing where the rd screen stuff came from. in your printer.cfg file you have a call to stuff that is not vaild. ratos_homing is not a valid section

looking at your .cfg.... HOMING .... do you have a file folder RatOS/z-probe/bltouch.cfg see if the file is there.... and that the syntax in that file is legit

odd.... @miklschmidt have a clue here? klipper error says
File "/home/pi/klipper/klippy/configfile.py", line 299, in check_unused_options
raise error("Section '%s' is not a valid config section"
configparser.Error: Section 'ratos_homing' is not a valid config section
File "/home/pi/klipper/klippy/configfile.py", line 299, in check_unused_options
raise error("Section '%s' is not a valid config section"
configparser.Error: Section 'ratos_homing' is not a valid config section
but files seem to be in place

Quinny

i might give that script a go when i get home, worst case is i pull my config and start again

odd though that the log used a variable .... raise error("Section '%s' is not a valid config section"
Quinny
QuinnyOP2y ago

from what to what? Ratos 1.x isn't compatible with 2.x

i started on ratrig 2.X im too new to be on 1.X ha i only built my ratrig in april
blacksmithforlife
wait, you don't have either physical endstops or sensorless homing enabled (lines 91-105) you definitely need one of them, otherwise the printer can't home it also looks like you have a bunch of the defaults in the USER OVERRIDES section which isn't needed and should be removed

can confirm running sudo ~/printer_data/config/RatOS/scripts/ratos-update.sh fixed my issue

this + clicking "symlink klippy extensions" in the configurator, should fix it. It can/will happen if you hard reset klipper.

Hence why these are restored when RatOS is updated (and why you have a button for it in the configurator). excellent
