"launch configuration 'True' does not exist" #6

Closed Maxme3ernard closed 6 months ago

Maxme3ernard commented 7 months ago

Hey,

I recently updated my simple_launch installation (from source) to use the add_action function. However, without modifying my previously working launchfile, I now have an error. My previous simple_launch version was quite old (1 or 2 years)

Some info: ROS distro: foxy

$pip show launch
Name: launch
Version: 0.10.10
Summary: Launch processes specified in launch files.

Requires: setuptools
Required-by: launch-ros, topic-monitor

The error:

Task exception was never retrieved

I fail to accurately trace this error further back, and the associated ~/.ros/log/logfile file is empty. However, the error seems to occur when the line with sl.group(if_arg=sl.arg('arg_name')): is interpreted.

Thanks again for your work.

Thanks for the feedback,

Can you give the launch file that leads to this error? There might be several reasons why it occurs, including a launch argument that would contain "true", possibly wrongly changed to "True" under some conditions.
