Camera found at start of install, then not found later in install process

[sigmapi332]

I have a Raspi HQ camera connected to my Pi. Running libcamera-still -o test.jpg spits out a jpg file without issue. Starting the install.sh file, it detects the camera without issue: "Found RPi unknown_sensor_imx477 (imx477)". The installer proceeds then after it creates the web sever, error.log, etc., the installer fails saying "no camera was found".

I've run it twice now with the same results, testing using libcamera-still between tries to verify the camera was working properly.

Not sure what to do at this point since the shell file both sees and doesn't see the camera. It's like Schrodinger's shell script.

(images below are displayed out of order.... the error image is where the script fails later on in the process)

Please attach ~/allsky/config/logs/install.log and ~/allsky/config/connected_cameras.txt (if it exists),
then run: libcamera-still --list-cameras.

Thanks

Please also attach ~/allsky/config/RPi_cameraInfo.txt.
Thanks

Well.. it must have been an issue with that specific Pi. I swapped it out for another one and the issue went away. Really weird that it worked and then didn't work on that original Pi. Thanks for the quick response though!

Glad you got it resolved.
I could still use those files to help troubleshoot what went wrong.

I'll try to remember to setup the original Pi tomorrow and try again to see if I can grab those for you.
