Raspberry Pi Camera v1.3 not working on OAP installed OS - aloknand - 06-06-2021

Hi Daniel/Bluewave Team,

I recently got a RPI Camera v1.3 to implement a dashcam recording. What is find is that this camera is working perfectly with "Raspberry Pi OS with desktop and recommended software" as downloaded from the official website.

However, when IĀ use the same camera with OAP installed OS, I find the error as attached pic and as mentioned below. I have enabled the camera from "sudo raspi-config" and also have run the updates "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y"

mmal: Cannot read camera info, keeping the defaults for OV5647

mmal: mmal_vc_component_create: failed to create component 'vc.ril.camera' (1:ENOMEM)
mmal: mmal_component_create_core: could not create component 'vc.ril.camera' (1)
mmal: Failed to create camera component
mmal: main: Failed to create camera component
mmal: Camera is not enabled in this build. Try running "sudo raspi-config" and ensure that "camera" has been enabled

I also find the led on the camera is always on even without working, which would otherwise be off on the stock OS and will only turn on when camera is accessed.
Please help how to activate the camera and get it running? Thanks for any help.

Hardware Used:
1. Board - RPI 3 Model B v1.2
2. Camera - RPI Camera Rev v1.3
3. Display - 7inch HDMI LCD (H) (with case)

Based on provided information looks like you could have an issue with:
- connection, camera is not detected. Double check the connector.
- camera is not configured in the OS. Configure camera and remember to restart the RPi. You can follow this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/camera.md ans skip update and upgrade commands.
