BBBlue "sudo make runonboot" ERROR #214

Open JLouis47 opened 2 years ago

JLouis47 commented 2 years ago

I have a program that runs fine from the command line of my PC when connected via WiFi to my BBBlue Diff-Drive robot. I can use the Pause button on the board to start and stop the robot (code is from the wonderful Project Template), but now I would like to run it without using the PC. However, when following the instructions on the Robot Control Library website for making my robot run on boot, I am getting an error about the PWM Driver timing out. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Here's the screenshot of the error: Pic_41

The solution to this problem is to be sure you are using the latest version of the Robot Control Library from Strawson Design. Back when I reported this problem I was using version 1.0.3. which I checked by using "rc_version". After re-flashing the Beaglebone Blue with version 1.0.4. the test done above passed and I was able to run-on-boot. Thank you James!
