      Hi,

      I've just installed Recalbox 9.2 on my new raspberry pi 5. It seems to work correctly, It seems to be connected to my WIFI as I can see my IP address in the recalbox menu and in the web interface of my router.
      But I can't connect to it via SSH nor access the recalbox.local web interface (timeout on the connection).

      Is there a way to access error logs somewhere on the pi directly to trace what is going on ?

      Thanks

        @Kaldrill There are some logs in /recalbox/share/system/logs; probably init.log is the first place to look to make sure that /etc/init.d/S50dropbear (the ssh server) is being started.

        There are also logfiles in /var/log/samba (samba enables filesharing with Windows).

        Also check /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log to check the wifi has connected correctly.

        edit: /var/log is wiped at power off so you need to look at it while Recalbox is running; suggest connecting a keyboard and accessing the console directly.

          @poppadum Thanks for the info, much appreciated. It's always good to know where to look.

          After a few restart the SSH server managed to start correctly. I'm still not sure to know what happened initially.

          Regarding the web interface the problem was a port conflict with an MQTT broker which was running on my computer for local development. I didn't find where to edit the MQTT broker to change the port but that's not a big issue.

          Thanks
