⚠️ Important note on release candidates
This is a Release Candidate of OctoPrint. It is not a stable release: severe bugs can occur, and they can be bad enough that they make a manual downgrade to an earlier version necessary - maybe even from the command line.
You should be comfortable with and capable of possibly having to do this before installing an RC.
Feedback on this RC
Please provide general feedback on this RC in this ticket. An "All is working fine" is valuable feedback as well because it tells me people are actually testing this RC and just not finding problems with it.
If you run into any obvious bugs, please follow "How to file a bug report" - I need logs and reproduction steps to fix issues, not just the information that something doesn't work.
Thanks!
Improvements
- More resilience against broken configurations.
- More resilience against platform startup issues during environment detection.
- Error Tracking: Severely restrict what gets tracked:
- we are only interested in handled core exceptions or unhandled exceptions
- we are not interested at all in
SerialException
