my service did start properly but after leaving the course and reentering it the start of a service stops with this

I did rm build -r build install and rebuild the whole workspace. Anything else I could cleanup to make it start again ?

HI @vkuehn ,

This seems like a source issue. Did you do source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash followed by source /opt/ros/galactic/setup.bash? This usually solves this problem.

Hi @vkuehn ,

This seems to be a commonly occurring problem that also has happened to me and sourcing worked for me.
I don’t seem to have any other solutions in my mind. You can check your package again from the beginning - the package.xml and setup.py files.

Did you do source install/setup.bash after building your package with colcon build ... ?

You don’t have to ask this question again in the course section. Just change the tags on the title of this post by editing it. The pencil icon next to the post title on the very top of the page.

Hi @girishkumar.kannan ,

it did work fine until I logged in again. Now it dos work fine again. Thought there is an issue sometimes where only waiting for the bootcycle of theconstruct vm conatiners help.

Also deleted browser cache.

Thanks a lot
