Error with PLA "The material for feeder 2 appears to be empty" after switching nozzles?

· Error with PLA "The material for feeder 2 appears to be empty" after switching nozzles?
Update: It appears that the filament end that is closer to the hot end was partially melted and got stuck in the bowden tube, making it impossible to move it, even with the pliers. I had to cut it. I wonder what caused it. I have some theories about temps being too hot and too much retraction going back and forth, but I am not sure about those either.
I changed the nozzle to AA 0.8, I got the error much more often, like almost every minute.
I reluctantly turned off the flow sensor and it seems that the error no longer pops up. I will check on the print tomorrow morning
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
