I tested it and the camera works.You can reinstall the software.
wget -O install_pivariety_pkgs.sh https://github.com/ArduCAM/Arducam-Pivariety-V4L2-Driver/releases/download/install_script/install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
chmod +x ./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh
sudo ./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_dev
sudo ./install_pivariety_pkgs.sh -p libcamera_apps
Thanks for jumping in @Edward This is my second reinstall on this Rpi4 and I tried two reinstalls on a Rpi3 with the same results.
Though, you just linked to a different image though. The one I have is from OctoPrint.org - Download & Setup OctoPrint and is buster based. The one you liked to looks like it’s using bullseye. Where did you find that? (Edit:I see it now as the release candidate on that page) I can certainly give it a try.
@Edward A fresh install gets us far closer. I used the image from Octoprint site:

The image I made directly enables the camera service, so you can’t use libcamera on the command line, you can directly enter the ipv4 address in the web page to view the camera.
Confirmed working with that image. Was the only additional thing you did was to install the CameraSettings plugin? If so if you did it via pip directly, it blocks the ability to upgrade Octopi. I think the standard way of installing is via the plugin manager.
Hello Edward!
Sorry to resurrect this thread but I think I’ve hit a brick wall. I’ve followed all of your guides through several threads. Including this one, I went from No Camera available to the camera being recognized in terminal. However, for some reason on Octopi, I just get an infinite “Wait webcam stream loading”
When I try to access the webcam via :8080/ I get to a MJPG stream page with blank windows in the example. Do I possibly have a hardware issue? Or is it specifically Octopi that might be the problem?
Again, sorry for rezing the post!
Can you take a picture of your status?
We have made a mirror image with all environments installed. Have you tried it?

I tried one of the links form the unofficialpi.org that you linked above, but I hit the same wall that I have on the current build.
I will try the mirror you just linked on a different SD card and see how it goes 
I can’t seem to get the server to even start running with the mirror. I’m trying to get a copy of the original wpa_supplicant to try and overwrite the one from the mirror -_-
I’m able to SSH into the pi, but I can’t access it via a browser it says “Octoprint Server is Currently not running”

I don’t see any errors reported.
It takes time to start the service, have you tried again after a while?
Are you directly entering the ip through the website to access?
The mirror image is made according to the following tutorial.
We have tested many times, and the whole process should be no problem.
https://docs.arducam.com/Raspberry-Pi-Camera/Native-camera/OctoPrint/
Yup! I somehow corrupted my original instance so all I have on the pi right is the mirror that you linked. Its been on all night annnnd still nothing. Like I said, it looks like it’s running fine but I just can’t access octopi from the browser using the ipaddress. I’ll try and reinstall and see if it lets me get to it. I think I’m just having terrible luck lol.
It looks like the problem I’m running into is that the Raspberry pi installer keeps changing my the original username from “pi” to the name of my PC.
Even if I try to enable SSH and change the username back to Pi during setup, it still causes the error. At least that’s what the Octopi forumns say is the issue.
I was able to get by this by installing the mirror without setting up SSH. I then went into the boot folder on the SD card and added a blank ssh.txt file annnnnd now it works!! The camera is on and everything Thank you!!!
Is there a guide on getting the camera to focus?
Can I update to the latest version of Octopi? Or do I leave it as is?
https://docs.arducam.com/Raspberry-Pi-Camera/Native-camera/OctoPrint/
The end of this link is about how to use focus.
If it is not necessary, you can leave it as it is. In theory, there is no problem for you to update, you can try following the tutorial.
Thank you everything works great! You’re amazing
