Printer Doesnt Start

Need Help..!! I succesfully connect to printer on octopi. When i start printing uploading gcode file, printer doesn't start and there is no error message as well. After some time the server also gets disconnected.

Printer model & used firmware
Creality Ender 3 with Marlin Latest Version.

we need logs, go into octoprint's settings and enable the serial log, then start a print. Also "octoprint.log" might be helpful.

Sorry for not attaching. Please find attached file for both log details.

Also an additional input on my problem : When in safe mode its works fine

Thanks in Advance.

I'm thinking that one of your plugins thinks it doesn't need to exist anymore.

Yes.. Actually i tried uninstalling Octolapse and now its working fine.
Thanks for the support.

For future reference for anyone who finds this, if you have a bunch of plugins installed, and everything works in safemode, it's probably one of your plugins breaking it. Disable them all manually in normal mode, then re-enable 1 by 1 until you find the one that's breaking things.

Thank you..
Regarding octolapse now i am not able to use it anymore. When i try to re install it the problem again occurs. Is there any other way to do timelapse like octolapse does. Please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

If you're having issues with plugins, try posting your issue on the particular plugin's issue tracker on github, I'm sure the developer would like to know about it. Be sure and include as much information as possible.
