Controller Manager CLI Broken Melodic

Open danem opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

 rosrun controller_manager controller_manager list

just hangs indefinitely.

rosservice call /robot/controller_manager/list_controllers

works however...

Please provide sufficient details whenever you are reporting an error. Was it installed or built from source? Which version of the package or the repo?

Sorry for not being more thorough. Here is my environment:

I installed the package via apt with sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-controller-manager. Dpkg and the package.xml file tells me that I have 0.16 installed currently.

I am currently running ros melodic with most everything installed via apt.

We have a test for the CLI and it passes for Melodic. Can it be that you are running this on Python3 perhaps? I am right now fixing bytes vs strings for Noetic on that but it shouldn't affect Melodic. Try running controller_manager_scripts from the controller_manager_tests package to verify this.

Sorry for the late response.

I'm running python 2. And sorry, but I was unable to find the controller_manager_scripts you refer to. I've installed ros-melodic-controller-manager-tests.
