Thanks for the quick response. For the first edit (...rosmaster_init_py) which file would I edit? I have not found NUM_WORKERS or code in rosmaster_main with the error.
For the second issue, I have tried to choco install defused.xmlrpc but it is not at the default location.
@PeterVB, if you ever hit any problems of some dependencies not being installed correctly, you can run
c:\opt\ros\melodic\x64\setup.batto source the ROS install, and then runrosdep install --from-paths c:\opt\ros\melodic\x64\ --ignore-src -r -yto let the tool examine and reinstall all the required libraries again.Yah, so none of that actually worked at all. I am still unable to use ROS.
Frustrating.
