accidentally deleted build folder inside the catkin_ws folder

asked 2021-05-02 04:52:16 -0500

updated 2021-05-04 04:17:09 -0500

I accidentally deleted the build folder inside the catkin_ws directory by running rm -rf build inside the catkin_ws directory. It seems to have broken some things. I am not able to build any package by running catkin build <package_name>.

Is there a way I can fix the issue?

This is the terminal output -

If I create a new catkin workspace and move the package files from inside the catkin_ws/src folder to the new catkin workspace's src folder, I am build to those packages. This is strange.

@skpro19 well that's solved then haha....just use that new workspace.

Actually, I am not able to build the packages in the new catkin_ws.

I'm sorry to have to do this for something so seemingly unimportant, but please don't post screenshots of terminal text in question on ROS Answers. It's all text, so there is no need. Just copy-paste the text from the terminal into your question text. Do make sure to format it properly by selecting the text and pressing ctrl+k (or clicking the Preformatted Text button (the one with 101010 on it)).

You don't need to post a new question, just edit your curent one. You can use the edit button/link for this.

After you replace the screenshot with the error message itself, we can re-open your question.


And @skpro19: you've been around for some time now, so this should not be new to you.

@gvdhoom I have edited my question to make the changes suggested by you.

All the errors pertain to geometry_msgs, which you appear to have built from source. Have you modified that package since it was last built? Also, can you please confirm whether you've tried catkin clean before building everything again?

Can you try to do catkin clean --all -y in your catkin_ws and try again to build the workspace.

@tryan I didn't modify that package. I did trying catkin clean before building everyting again.

If you are building in catkin_ws, you don't need to include the <package_name>. Just catkin build will do. I would suggest you first execute catkin clean and then do catkin build.

This doesn't work. Most of the packages are producing an error on running catkin build.

@skpro19 Was it working before you deleted the build folder? The error message seems like you have issues with generating messages and other stuff.

TK27 gravatar image TK27  ( 2021-05-02 07:44:45 -0500 )edit

Yes. It was working just fine.
