Processing Error: Device not Ready

[Dane_Croucher]

Forgive me if this is a simple solution. I am not really a computer guy and am learning as I go. I get a strange error in the logs when I try to process the image. The last line seems the most relevant, but I will post the whole, short log just incase

Traceback (most recent call last):

How do I fix this? Thanks in advance!

Edit: Just testing my knowledge. Is the program trying to use my disk drive to process my images?

[pierotofy]

Mm, strange. It might be a bug. Do you have a D: drive on your computer?

[Dane_Croucher]

Yes i do. When i try to find that location in the files by entering “D:”, it pulls up my disk drive.

Could you try to download this file (win32env.bat) win32env.bat · GitHub which has been modified and replace the existing one C:\WebODM\resources\app\apps\ODM\win32env.bat? Make a copy of the original before replacing it just in case. Then try to process again. Does the error persist?

[Dane_Croucher]

I would love to try and do that. Is there a link you have that could teach me how to replace that? If not, a quick run down would be much appreciated.

1. Download the file (click the link, press “Download Zip” from the top right).
2. Double-click the downloaded zip file to access the archive (navigate into the folders until you find win32env.bat)
3. Right-click the file, press Copy.
4. From Explorer, navigate to C:\WebODM\resources\app\apps\ODM
5. Right-click an empty space in the explorer window, click “Paste”. Confirm that you want to replace the file.
6. Try re-processing the dataset.

[Dane_Croucher]

Seems to be working. Thank you so much. You computer geniuses never disappoint.

This should be now fixed in WebODM build 84 for everyone. Update if you encounter the same issue!
