make_libraries.py Permission Denied Error
Hi,
I recently tried to install rosserial_arduino using this tutorial: http://wiki.ros.org/rosserial_arduino... but when I run the command:
rosrun rosserial_arduino make_libraries.py .
Edit: for your ease of reading, here is the error I get:
Exporting to .
Traceback (most recent call last):

This is the exact error shown here: https://github.com/ros-drivers/rosser... That issue was closed, but it appears I've broken it again. I tried both using both options in step 3.1 in the above tutorial, but when I got to the catkin_make command, I got more errors:

Project 'agitr' tried to find library 'pthread'. The library is neither a

you find_package() it before the subdirectory containing its code is
included?

I can open up an example file in Arduino, but when I try to compile, it gives me this:
In file included from /opt/ros/groovy/include/ros/node_handle.h:31:0,
from /home/imehrslab/sketchbook/libraries/ros_lib/ros.h:38 ...
Something else strange is that the file that seems to be denying me permission (duration.cpp) doesn't exist in the directory in which it is listed in the error.
Just for testing, add a
CATKIN_IGNOREfile to theagitrpkg. That should allowcatkin_maketo continue. Do atouch /home/imehrslab/catkin_ws/src/agitr/CATKIN_IGNORE, then reruncatkin_make. This will (most likely) not fix your permission error, but will remove one error from the process.Also: any particular reason to be running Groovy? That ROS release has been EOL for a long time now, so it could be you're missing (a lot of) fixes and improvements that have been released into the newer releases.
Thanks for the reply. I did add the ignore, but the error is almost identical, it just says 'rosserial_server' instead of 'agitr' and the file under the call stack is slightly different. It also doesn't have the
make: *** [cmake_check_build_system] Error 1line.Do you know what could fix the permissions problem? I don't know why I wouldn't have permission to run anything. In response to your second question, I'm sort of forced to run on Groovy, since the robot I'm trying to operate has to use Groovy. A newer version of the robot isn't out yet.
It's not running that is the issue, it's writing files. You cannot create files in the
/opt/ros/groovy/share/rosserial_arduino/src/ros_libdir. Thecatkin_makeerror is something different. I suspect that something changed forroscppin Hydro, so your Groovy build fails due to that.I see. So how would I get that permission? Is it something to do with admin rights, or something in the files themselves I'm trying to install? I really only tried the catkin_make method because the binaries didn't work, so if it messes up due to Groovy, I guess I can't get around that.
