My CONTROL installation doesn't seem to be checking for updates. I'm on 1.0.234 but I think it goes back a version or two before that. Things that might be different about my installation: my 3D Viewer is disabled (no WebGL support), and I custom flashed the GRBL firmware with door interlock support. Any ideas? Thanks.
Correct, known bug, it is under investigation at the moment @Batcrave first reported it here: OpenBuilds CONTROL Software In the meantime, please grab 1.0.235 from OpenBuilds Software - FREE Software for CNC Control: OpenBuilds CONTROL and OpenBuilds CAM
Just out of curiosity brrian , are you running on the Win or linux version? And Peter: Both of us - the only two cases I've seen reported - were running custom firmware. It seems a little improbable, but is there any chance that's playing a role? -Bats (when you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains - no matter how improbable - is probably just a red herring)
Ok, Peter - I guess that knocks out the "linux problem" hypothesis, for better or not-better. My money's on most people just not noticing. Otherwise I'm puzzled why it only seems to be the two of us who've run into it. -Bats (I'm known to have rare, stupid, and generally unlikely problems, sure... but two of us? I hope I'm not contagious...)
Not just you two. I've had the same issue on at one machine. Just checked a second machine that I rarely use Control on. It was running .215. It did prompt me to upgrade to .235. My primary Control machine wasn't updating. Manually downloaded and updated, but I can't tell you what version I was on as I didn't realize it was a potention issue at the time. (Figured it was just a fluke)
