    Hey,
    i'm currently trying to do something similiar to modallink_relink.py, but i need the return value of voxl-modem-start.sh and it should be blocking, so i wanted to directly run that instead of using:

    systemctl restart voxl-modem
    

    But when i'm running voxl-modem-start.sh from voxl terminal i get the following error:
    Screenshot from 2022-12-06 17-31-22.png

    the modem is configured and with the service file it works. I also tried playing around with the if conditions in voxl-modem-start.sh but without success.

    System Image: 3.8.0
    voxl-modem Version: 0.16.1

      @Philemon-Benner Hmm it’s reading from /etc/modalai/voxl-modem.conf

      I wonder if something funky is going on with the config file formatting.

        @tom Now it's working again, but might be worth a look, it's important that it always works. Parsing seems fine:

        apq8096 detected...
        'v2'
        len: 2
        
        Initializing v2 modem...
        
        Waiting for ttyUSB2...
        ttyUSB2
