Hi all, Okay, I got my hopes up too soon — after about ten rounds with 'next' and several builds the build got stuck again today. This time it stopped while compiling a firmware update which needs about four seconds. Timer disappeared and nothing happens...
So my 'sleep 2' fix looked good at first sight, worked for a few days, but didn't help, sorry. @Michael: How do I get rid of this d**** counter the fastest and easiest way...!? ;-) Best Matthias On 08.06.2026 18:55, Stefan Schantl wrote: > > Hi @all, > > I've also stumbled over this issue from time to time. > > So let's give the fix a try. > > Best regards, > > -Stefan > Am 8.
