Start is the web cam is not working
https://community.octoprint.org/t/webcam-stream-not-working/6049/30
Check updates:
sudo apt-get update –fix-missing
sudo apt-get upgrade
(Checked the camera was enabled after running the updates)
sudo raspi-config
sudo reboot
run:
curl -v http://localhost:8080/
I would take a look at what was returned (if anything). Here’s what I see on mine:
* Expire in 0 ms for 6 (transfer 0xdfb7c0)
# many of those, repeated
* Trying ::1...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Expire in 149998 ms for 3 (transfer 0xdfb7c0)
* Expire in 200 ms for 4 (transfer 0xdfb7c0)
* Connected to localhost (::1) port 8080 (#0)

So when this is working correctly the Pi is serving up just a simple webpage with a couple of links. If your install isn’t serving up (locally) on the Pi this content then troubleshoot this as a haproxy problem. Assuming that it does return a webpage then the next step locally on the Pi is to see if you can fetch a screenshot image.
curl -o ~/screenshot.png http://localhost:8080/?action=snapshot
ls -l ~/screenshot.png
-rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 39230 Oct 29 11:56 /home/pi/screenshot.png
Personally, I would use scp to fetch that file over to my workstation and see if it’s what’s expected.
