When running on wsl, modifying the default value of the port is of no use.

Reproduction

I was trying lerobot on WSL2, but when I execute

python lerobot/scripts/control_robot.py \
  --robot.type=so101 \
  --robot.cameras='{}' \
  --control.type=calibrate \
  --control.arms='["main_follower"]'" 

It reported that

 "serial.serialutil.SerialException: [Errno 2] could not open port /dev/tty.usbmodem585A0076891: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/tty.usbmodem585A0076891'"

I have already changed the port default values,and I have connected the usb from windows to wsl.

leader_arms: dict[str, MotorsBusConfig] = field(
        default_factory=lambda: {
            "main": FeetechMotorsBusConfig(
                port="/dev/ttyACM0",
                motors={
                    # name: (index, model)
                    "shoulder_pan": [1, "sts3215"],
                    "shoulder_lift": [2, "sts3215"],
                    "elbow_flex": [3, "sts3215"],
                    "wrist_flex": [4, "sts3215"],
                    "wrist_roll": [5, "sts3215"],
                    "gripper": [6, "sts3215"],
                },
            ),
        }
    )

But when I run it on Ubuntu ,it works. Please help me!!!

Expected behavior

I want to know why this happened ,did I miss some steps？

Hi @SunJiayu-L !

Could you check if the port you want to use is correctly reported in the configuration displayed when the script is launched ? With the unmodified default configs.py you should see :

If your modifications were correctly taken into account, the output should be modified accordingly.

Best,

Caroline.

same is happening to me. And in .cache/calibration/ dir there is only aloha_default folder. I don't know if that's expected or not. And my configs are correctly set. Please try to reproduce this issue in a WSL env. Merci
