PyPortal' object has no attribute 'root_group

Pulled out the hurricane tracker and updated the PyPortal to Curcuitpython 9.2.8 and downloaded the libraries data 25-06-06 and installed all of the new files. Using the updated code and settings.toml. The tracker shows the screen briefly and then the following errors show up:

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Downloaded the Libraries for 25-06-18. This seem to stop the above errors, but produce a couple of new ones.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "code.py", line 32, in <module>
  File "adafruit_pyportal/__init__.py", line 181, in __init__
AttributeError: 'PyPortal' object has no attribute 'root_group'

line code 32 is status_neopixel=board.NEOPIXEL,default_bg="/map.bmp",

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

@pjockey I think that is due to a mismatch is the current version of adafruit_pyportal and the version of adafruit_portalbase that is frozen in to CircuitPython 9.x.

Try using CircuitPython 10.0.0-alpha.7, you'll need to get the libs for 10.x from the bundle that was downloaded as well.

Or alternatively you could keep 9.2.8 and try moving adafruit_portalbase/ from inside of lib/ on your device to the root of CIRCUITPY. Putting libraries in the root of the drive will make them take precedent over the frozen in versions.

Thanks for the reply @FoamyGuy . Tried the 2nd suggestion first and it produce lots of errors, similar to the original post. So, I installed the CircuitPython 10.0.0-alpha.7 and loaded all of the libraries from 10.x. Get the following output:

As a heads up to anyone else

Or alternatively you could keep 9.2.8 and try moving adafruit_portalbase/ from inside of lib/ on your device to the root of CIRCUITPY. Putting libraries in the root of the drive will make them take precedent over the frozen in versions.

This works for V10 beta 0
