GPIO input plugin

[marcopiro]

Dear QLC+ friends,
strange behaviour today on a fresh RPI install.
When I try to configure the GPIO Plugin on the debug console I get:

Code: Select all

[GPIO] error in opening direction file "/sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction"

and the input/output behaviour is not possible to set.
GPIO pins are initialized as input, pullup in /boot/firmware/config.txt

Any ideas???
Many thanks,
with love,
Marco

Hi, what if you do it from a command line like this?

Code: Select all

echo in > /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction

Do you get an error or does it work?

Thank you Massimo for your kind answer.
However I get:

Code: Select all

bash: /sys/class/gpio/gpio18/direction: No such file or directory

No idea why!
However I must say: I'm not using your pre-built RPI image but I tried to install on my own. Same procedure done a year ago and it was working (I was on a previous Raspbian version).
I'll try to dig more.
Many thanks,
grazie
