Flash app 'could not connect'

I'm trying to upgrade to Firm ware 1.5 and keep getting the error message 'could not connect to Audiomoth. Reconnect and flash again'.

I'm using Flash App 1.2.0, audiomoth has firmware 1.3.0 and my operating system is Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS. Error log attached.

Please advise.

Using the command below worked for me, but only after logging out and back in again, and disconnecting and reconnecting the AudioMoth: > sudo usermod -a -G dialout MY_USER_NAME It's a bit annoying that Linux doesn't give you default write access to the serial ports.

For what is worth, I have just gone through the same troubles flashing to 1.6 in a Linux (did not have trouble flashing to 1.5, though), and your comment here did the trick. Thanks!
